I am 21 years old and have dealt with uneven breasts since I was 13 years old. Righty has always been training bra-sized, if that, while Lefty's always been about 2 cup sizes bigger, with it growing more in the past year as I started taking the birth control patch in hopes of it helping Righty grow more, which it hasn't. Just wondering if this is even fixable and if so, how so and how much could the procedure cost considering the severity of my case? I've never seen anything this severe before.

Answer: Breast Asymmetry Skelley3663. So sorry you have dealt with this for so long!! Your condition is very fixable with a small reduction on the left side and breast augmentation on the right. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon with lots of experience with breast surgery. Good luck!

Answer: Significant asymmetry...is this correctable? Thanks for this question, as there are likely other patients out there with this condition and the answers may be helpful to them as well. First, this is a fixable situation, although it will take some patience on your part and will likely necessitate two surgical procedures. When I correct patients with this much asymmetry it is important to understand that we will likely not get you perfect with only the first surgery. This is because the breast tissue and skin need to stretch on the right side significantly to allow us to see how it looks down the road once everything "settles." After that, the left breast will usually require either a lift alone, or a lift with a small implant to make it look more like the right side. Either way, you will look great when all is completed. You should expect to wait at least one year between surgeries. I am in Jacksonville if you want to come in for a consultation. Again thanks.
