Hi! I am 22 years old and I was wondering from looking at my pictures could my asymmetrical breast be fixed without implants? Or would I need implants plus a lift in my left(the bigger one) breast? Thanks!
Answer: Augmentation vs lift for asymmetric breasts
Breast asymmetries must generally be done in surgery.
If the patient is OK with their size on the smaller size, a lift on one or both sides with slight reduction of the larger side is an option. This is the lowest maintenance option.
Or the patient can have a lift plus asymmetric implants if the patient needs a bigger size.

Answer: Can Asymmetrical Breasts be Fixed Without Surgery? Thank you for the question. Unfortunately there are no nonsurgical options to fix uneven breasts. A breast lift with a small reduction on the larger side is typically used to create symmetry without implants. When considering surgery make sure you find a board certified plastic surgeon who will take the time to listen to your goals, answer all of your questions and explain all of your options, so that you can decide if surgery is right for you.

Answer: Breast asymmetry options Thank you for your question. Breast asymmetry is very common, particularly size asymmetry. If you are looking to decrease the asymmetry from one breast to another, then you have several options. 1) You can reduce the larger breast with liposuction or a traditional breast reduction technique 2) You can enlarge the smaller one with fat grafting or an implant 3) You can enlarge both but use different size implants 4) A lift procedure may also be needed to help address differences in shape, nipple position and areolar size. I would visit with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options in more detail.

Answer: Can Asymmetrical Breasts be Fixed Without Surgery? Hello! Thank you for your question! It is common for women to have asymmetry of her breasts. Usually, this is simply a benign finding, especially if it has been a finding since development. Sudden changes in one breast alone is more concerning. If the asymmetry is bothersome to you, there truly is no "natural" way to achieve symmetry. Nothing short of a surgical procedure would ameliorate your issue. Options would be for augmentation of breast(s) with implant(s) of varying sizes or fat, reduction of breast(s) with excision or liposuction. Consult with a plastic surgeon to examine examine and discuss the various options available. Your surgeon will help you decide for yourself which option(s) is the best for you. Best wishes!

Answer: Breast lift and reduction in the bigger breast or breast augmentation in the smaller breast Thank you for the pictures. The procedure most suitable for you depends on which breast you would like to have matched up. Do you want to be larger like the left one or smaller like the right? A breast reduction and lift can be performed to reduce the size of the left to make it perkier. You can also increase the right with an implant although you may need to still have a lift performed if you want the left to be perkier.

Answer: Fixing breast asymmetry
Asymmetric breasts are very common, and you can definitely fix your asymmetry without implants. You can have a lift and reduction on the left in order to match the size and nipple position on the right. If you want the breasts to match and also be larger, then yes you would need implants, along with a list on the left. In that case a smaller implant can be used on the left side since it is already larger than the right. I would not recommend an implant on only one side though, since then you will still likely be asymmetric in shape. Good luck!
