Asymmetrical breast repair often not complicated

John Philip Di Saia, MD answers: Asymmetrical breasts due to Breast Reduction

I have breasts that are completely asymmetrical as a result of a breast reduction.  The right nipple is 2cm too high and the shape of both is unnatural. Is there a surgeon who's experienced in complex breast reduction revision cases?

Hello,

It sounds like your breast skin envelope needs to be re-designed, and you might have had too much or too little tissue removed. This is not common but can be fixed. The repair may be much less complicated than you think. It is likely that you need not redo the whole breast reduction to improve this.
