Breast reduction revision can be done with good results

David A. Robinson, 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?

I am sorry to hear you did not have a good experience with your initial surgery.  Hopefully, you have experienced a reduction in back, neck and shoulder pain following your surgery.

My advice would be to return to your original surgeon with your concerns and discuss what solutions he may have.  If you are not satisfied with your options, I would then find a board certified plastic surgeon in your area for a second opinion.

You can find a list of board certified plastic surgeons at www.plasticsurgery.org

Good luck.
