How Do I Choose a Good Surgeon to Fix Extreme Asymmetrical Breasts and Help Paying for Procedure?

Since I was 12 (puberty) ive had uneven breasts (im 21 now). My left breast is an A cup and my right breast is a D cup.. Ive seen plastic surgeons (who laughed in my face about my breasts, stating its one of the worst cases they have seen) quoted $10, 000. Of course, to my heart ache I cannot afford a procedure that costs this much. How can I find a great surgeon that can fix my breast s to make them as perfect as possible? How can I get help paying? I just want to feel confident for once!

Yes you can fix very asymmetric breast with the BRAVA

I personally given your age approach this a little differently. Look up the BRAVA device. It creates suction and expands the breast over time. Then using liposuction, fat is removed and after processing it the fat is transferred into the smaller breast to make it larger. This doesn't require implants of the left or scars on the right side.

Good luck with your decision to undergo breast surgery to correct your asymmetry. Some financing may be helpful to allow you to pay for your surgery.

You do have a major asymmetry and severe ptosis of the breasts. You will need a reduction on the larger breast and a lift on the smaller breast. You can contact a finacing company like CARECREDIT, and see if you can get financing. The cost is what you were told
