I've had 2 consultations for breast asymmetry & high creases. 1st dr would use implants to would fill out the lower part of the breast, lifting my nipple. The 2nd recommended a reduction on one breast and a lift on both w/ implants, requiring many more incisions. I worry about the scarring but I also want my nipples to lift a bit using small implants. Questions: 1) can a small implant achieve a lift of the nipples 2) how difficult is it to obtain symmetry through implants alone?
Answer: You have significant asymmetry to start You differences in breast size and shape will only be enhanced with implants. That is why you will get varying opinions about how to deal with the asymmetry.In breast augmentation I have chosen to spend time reviewing

Answer: Correcting Breast Asymmetery With Implants vs Breast Lift This is a good question. Anatomy such as yours is best served by a very skilled Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with lots of experience in breast surgery. Fear not, you can have beautiful results. Most likely a combination of fat transfer, implants, and skin reduction (that means a breast lift) will be needed to make your two sides look alike. To answer your questions simply, you cannot truly lift the nipple with implants alone. Asymmetry most likely will not be corrected with implants alone either. I wish you the best on reaching your goal.

Answer: Asymmetry In my opinion, it would be impossible to correct your droop with implants alone or get symmetry with implants alone. I think your best option is to have different sized implants placed, a lift on your right breast and a small reduction on your left side. Realize that no matter what is done you will not have perfect symmetry, your breasts are too different to begin with.

Answer: Correction of Breast Asymmetry To answer your questions, a small implant alone cannot lift the nipples. Symmetry cannot be obtained with implants alone. You have tubular breasts, constricted medial folds, large areola and volume asymmetry. I recommend silicone implants and a full mastopexy on the right and, to a lesser degree, a mastopexy on the left. Keep in mind, you have a higher risk of revisional surgery because of the amount of asymmetry. Revisional surgery is minor and many times under local anesthesia. You can have beautiful breasts. I recommend a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with experience in this type of breast surgery perform the case. Please call my office with any questions.Thank you.

Answer: Correct breast asymmetry & high creases through implants alone? I don't want my 34B/C breasts to be any larger than 34D. Thank you for the question and pictures.Given the position and asymmetry of your breasts, I think you will do best with bilateral breast augmentation as well as breast lifting surgery. Breast augmentation alone will not achieve an aesthetically pleasing outcome. Select your plastic surgeon carefully and communicate your goals carefully as well. Goal pictures and the use of computer imaging may be helpful during this communication process. You may also find the attached link, dedicated to breast asymmetry concerns, helpful to you. Best wishes.
