Asymmetrical Breasts Due to Breast Reduction

2
29ForeverFeb 4, 2009

I have breasts that are completely asymmetrical as a result of a breast reduction. The right nipple is 2cm too high and the shape of both is unnatural. Is there a surgeon who's experienced in complex breast reduction revision cases?

My recommendation is to wait 6 months after the completion of breastfeeding. This will give your breasts enough time to shrink back down to their normal size. I also recommend you get to your ideal weight before planning a breast reduction surgery to achieve the best outcome. Best wishes.
