How to Fix Uneven Breasts
First decide if you like one of your breasts as it is now.
If you like the right breast, then you would benefit from a Spectrum implant placed in the left. This is a postoperative adjustable implant from Mentor.
If you like the left breast, then you would need a reduction of the right side.
If you do not like either breast then decide what you want, larger, smaller, or in between.
An experienced plastic surgeon can do a variety of things to make your breasts more...

Best way to approach breast asymmetry
I think the best way to approach correcting breast asymmetry is to have realistic expectations as to what can be achieved. Although no one can expect to achieve perfection, realizing that significant improvement can be achieved should be the goal.
Sometimes, breast asymmetry is approached in a staged fashion. First you should decide which breast you like best and discuss with your plastic surgeon how you can best get your opposite breast to match. This may require an implant, reduction,...

In cases of asymmetry decide what your goals are first
In cases like yours, one needs to decide on the goals before making a plan. If your goal is to have better symmetry and your breasts to look more even, then that will require a particular procedure. If you wish for one or both breasts to be larger, that will require a particular procedure. So, before you simply undergo a procedure or accept a plan, really think about what it is that is important to you. Then from there you can intelligently work with your surgeon to...

Uneven breasts
Thank you for the question and the photo. Almost every single patient I see has two very different breasts. Some have an A cup and a D cup. In order for your breasts to appear more symmetrical, I suggest a lift on the right and bilateral asymmetrical augmentation. I perform at least one case like this almost every day. You can expect your breasts to appear more alike but never exactly the same. Ultimately, if you do your research and find the right surgeon, you will be happy with the result.

Adjustable implants for left breast and mild breast lift or pexy for Natural Look for Uneven Breasts
I would use adjustable implants for your left breast and perform a mild breast lift or pexy, even with a periareolar scar, while maintaining similar volume. Breast augmentation of your left breast could be performed under local anaesthesia.
