breast reduction on the left side to correct asymmetry. Areola reduction on the right side to match the left. For reference this is done a few years ago. There hasn't been much change except for a little droopiness on my right side from gravity. My nipples are inches different in height, as well as my areolas are different sizes. How can I correct this with surgery? Do I need implants? Any help is appreciated Thanks.

Answer: Revision breast reduction/lift Thanks for your question! If your goal is optimal symmetry, then I think you could get by with just a reduction/lift on the right side. That would get a closer shape of the breast and the areola. Good luck!

Answer: Asymmetry Dear Eclectic739767, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Breast Asymmetry Thankyou for your query. It seems these photographs are selfies so I may get the right and left wrong. Based on the photographs, the side with the large areola (?right side) needs a lift with areola reduction and the side with an irregular areola needs a revision of the areola. The two sides can be best matched with vertical scar mastopexy. Please find an experienced Board certified Plastic surgeon who can help you with all your concerns and in achieving symmetry for your breasts. All the best!
