Hello, My surgeon and I are discussing implant sizes and me getting an implant with a 10.50 cm diameter on the right, and a 10.25 cm diameter on the left. But I worry, will that difference in diameter be noticeable? Thanks

Answer: Asymmetry We are all asymmetrical to some degree and this includes our breasts! The difference in diameter won't be as noticeable once the implant is in the body, however the fit of the implant may be a better for the space. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon to better understand the rationale behind selecting differently sized widths.

Answer: 10.25 cm vs 10.50 cm I do not think you will be able to notice the difference between an implant that is 10.25 cm in diameter and one that is 10.50 cm in diameter. A quarter of a centimeter is very small. You may notice a difference in terms of size of the implant but that too should not be too noticeable. Typically when a surgeon is planning on placing different size implants it is in order correct a size difference. That leads me to believe there is a size discrepancy to begin with.
