Breast asymmetry exaggerated while breast-feeding!

I'm sorry this additional burden is a laughing matter to your family members, who should be supporting you, not teasing! After weaning your son, wait at least 3 menstrual cycles to let your hormones and breasts return to their new normals. Then see one or several ABPS-certified plastic surgeons for advice on the best way to improve your breast symmetry. Several options may exist, and you can usually have advice and surgical cost quotes given in complimentary (no-charge) consultations... more

Breast asymmetry can be well corrected.

Hi. 1) Your problem is very tough to live with, and my heart goes out to you. Here's what you should do. Stop breast feeding, and wait three or four months to let your breasts and hormones settle down. Then see a board certified plastic surgeon. 2) What you probably need is a reduction of your right breast to make it look like your left. Maybe you need surgery on both sides. But your problem can be fixed! see video

Breast Size Difference and Breast Augmentation

In general there are two options. You can either place an implant to bring the smaller breast up to the larger breast in size or reduce the larger breast to bring it down to the smaller. In addition, you have to consider the skin envelope and the amount of droop that exists as lifts may be needed on both breasts. Hard to say without photos or an exam or discussion or goals and risk/benefit analysis. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA more

Breast Extremely Different in Size?

This is not a rare finding--different size breasts, and plastic surgeons deal with this regularly. Without photos only the most general suggestions are possible. Before anything can be done you will have to wait for several months after you stop nursing. The smaller breast can be enlarged with implants, and the larger breast reduced and or lifted. The issue of cysts and pain need to be evaluated first, and this best by your primary physician. All the best. more
