What can I do to correct my breasts? (Photo)

S
shadylady32Nov 3, 2015

Since age 12 I noticed a difference in the size of my breasts. I recently had a consultation and was told I have at least 6 different deformities/abnormalities associated with my breast. Severe asymmetry,ptosis,tubular breast,one cockeyed nipple,areola too large,hernia in one breast,.... Are there really that many things wrong with my breast and if so what surfer is right for me to correct all these things? I was told that getting implants with my kind of breasts would be "asking for trouble".

Dear Frozen_stair,It is entirely possible to have small implants and for them to look and feel natural.  Silicone implants under the muscle will give you the most natural result.  I use an armpit (axillary) incision with and endoscopic, which usually gives an almost invisible incision....

You have developed something called a late seroma which warrants further investigation. In most cases it's nothing but in rare cases it can represent a rare (but treatable) form of cancer known as ALCL. You surgeon should drain the fluid and send it for special tests to rule out this condition....

You are very early in your recovery. It is absolutely normal to still be high, tight and hard at this point. I don't have my patients start massage until 3 weeks post-op so that is also normal. You just have to be patient and trust the process. Make sure to follow your PS instructions. Good luck!

Hello,Each Plastic Surgeon will have their own preferred post op protocol which they feel gives them the best results. When you have chosen your surgeon based on their training, skill and results then you can trust their recommendation for post op dressing or bra as well. All the best

I appreciate your question.While this isnt a great idea medically, it should not hurt the implants.The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz
