Asymmetrical Breasts Due to Breast Reduction

Thank you for the question.

Some degree of breast asymmetry after breast reduction is not unusual. The breast asymmetry can often be corrected ( to a large degree) with revisionary surgery. The exact type of procedure that you will benefit from will depend on your exam and goals.

Consider consultation in person with no experienced board certified plastic surgeons.

Best wishes.

A breast reduction is a complex operation that is subject to some inherent degree of difficulty in predicting the long term outcome. I am sure your surgeon's intention was to deliver a good result. Your best bet is to return to him/her and discuss your concerns. A relatively simple procedure could provide you with an improved result. However, perfect symmetry may never be possible.

Most women have some asymmetry of their nipple position, areolar diameter, breast volume and other variables. Check with your plastic surgeon and review your pre-op photographs. Almost certainly you had some breast asymmetry prior to surgery. Post-op breast asymmetry is occurs, and can be addressed with a variety of safe and effective techniques.
