Hello, my surgeon suggested that I have 295 ml in my right breast and 330 ml in my left one. I do have some slight asymmetry, with my left breast placed a little higher than my right one, besides being slightly smaller. Do you think that this difference of 35 ml will be noticeable once in my body?
Answer: Breasts Your right breast is larger now, so you will look more even if more is added to the left side. Let your surgeon do what is best for you. Yes, you will notice that you are more even.

Answer: Possibly After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size breast implants. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon' s experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what is right for them.

Answer: Same Size Implants The volume difference is relatively minor. The intentions of using different size implants are good. But, in a slender person like you, that difference is likely to become noticeable with time. Best to sue the same size implants. Your areolas are at very different levels. Print this photo out, and draw horizontal lines through the nipples across the chest, and you'll see the significant height difference between the two sides. When you do an augmentation, this difference in areola height will become exaggerated, and more noticeable. Also, the larger areola is likely to expand proportionally more than the smaller areola. Some options you have: 1. Don't do an augmentation, may be until after having children, and breastfeeding, if that is a consideration. 2. Have an augmentation with the same size implants, knowing that you will have symmetric breast mounds, but areolas at noticeably different levels. 3. Consider a periareolar lift (permanent soft Gortex suture paced) to make the areola the same size, and improve the position for better asymmetry. Dr. B.

Answer: Implant size Dear Intuitive895363, based on your photos, it looks like you have minor asymmetry so different size implants can help improve this. During the surgery your surgeon can use sizers to make sure that your asymmetry is resolved.

Answer: Breast implants Unless there is significant asymmetry I usually recommend using the same size implants, and that’s what I would do in your situation. You need to accept some asymmetry anyway. Using different size implants is a game that usually doesn’t work out very well.
