Correcting breast asymmetry

Breast asymmetry can be fixed very easily. A breast augmentation/lift on one or both breasts can be done to make them more symmetrical. However, I would suggest having an examination to ensure there isn't an underlying medical cause of the asymmetry. Good luck!

Treatment options for breast asymmetry

Breast asymmetry can definitely be treated. Although it is unlikely that your breasts will ever match exactly, it should be possible to get them similar. You should seek a consultation with one or more board certified plastic surgeons to discuss all the options and find a surgeon you are comfortable with. Sometimes it is better to make the smaller one larger, sometimes reduce the larger one, or, probably most often, a combination of procedures will give you the best result. Good luck to you. more

Correction of Breast Asymmetry

Thank you for your email. There are many different options for someone like yourself and an in person examination will give you the best information. The options of a breast lift on one side (or both- depending) as well as breast implants would be on the table. I would ask that you visit with well experienced plastic surgeons who can show you examples of their work so that you are comfortable proceeding with surgery. Best Wishes.

Treatment Options For Breast Asymmetry

Treatment of breast asymmetries often involve a reduction on one side and an augmentation on the other. However, with your situation and wishes, it sounds as if you would benefit from a bilateral augmentation (possibly with a small lift on the larger, sagging breast).
