About How Much Would It Cost to Reduce One Breast to Match the Other Because of a Cup Size in Breast Asymmetry?

There are unfortunately no simple answers for you because there are too many factors involved in this decision.  For example, did you have children and did you nurse.  Have you gained and lost lots of weight?  Are the breasts droopy and do you want to fix that as well?

Best advice is to consult with a reputable plastic surgeon to discuss all your various options.  Then you can come up with a game plan that is unique to your individual needs.

Hi.

This is because your smaller breast is probably sagging somewhat.  But if you really only need breast reduction of one breast, you can get that done well for $5000.

Prices vary widely from region to region, and sometimes even within a given area.  In New York, breast reduction surgery (in general) is often $12,000-15,000 although it may be covered by insurance (in which participation agreements may apply).  Although I can't say for sure, it is probably about 2/3 of that price to reduce one breast.

You should visit several doctors in your area to find out the specifics, both in what is involved surgically and what the finances are.  At that point you'll be able to make a more-informed decision.

I hope that this helps and good luck,

Dr. E
