Answer: Asymmetry Thank you for your question! This is actually a fairly common situation in young woman that can be treated surgically... One would either reduce the larger breast to match the smaller or place an implant in the smaller breast to match the larger. The breasts may still be growing so you could choose to wait... however, depending on how much it bothers her, she can proceed with intervention at any time. Good luck!

Answer: Most often no clear reason for breast asymmetry/lack of development Unfortunately, in most cases there are no specific reasons why there is breast asymmetry. In a rare cases such as Poland's syndrome (also absent pectoralis muscle and webbed fingers on one side) or trauma like burns on the breast can also prevent later develoment

Answer: BBA Asymmetrical breasts are quite common. She still has many years of breast growth ahead of her. You should see your GP or pediatrician to ensure that there are no congenital or endocrine issues.

Answer: Unclear breast asymmetry It is not unusual to have some asymmetry in the breasts. If there is a very large difference that persists throughout her development, it is possible that she might have tuberous breast deformity or some other congenital problem that is mostly aesthetic. Other causes to poor breast development on one side can be a burn, surgery, or trauma to a breast at a young age. No need to be too concerned now, but you should speak to your pediatrician for more information. I would not advise surgery for cosmetic reasons on any person this young.
