Custom shaping asymmetric breasts

The simplest and probably best single procedure would be to reduce the volume of the left breast to match the right, lift both breasts to a symmetric position, and adjust the areolar size and position to the center of the breast.

Without using an implant, you would at least require a reduction on the left with a lift. On the right you would benefit from a lift with parenchymal redistribution possibly achieved with a subglandular dissection and radial rexlaxing incisions.  The use of fat grafting is a possibility but... more
