Besides wanting actual breasts, a big reason I'm interested in BA is because my tiny breasts are so assymetrical. Im told that is a different procedure (reconstructive) so Im concerned about the augmentation. Will I just have same, ridiculous looking breasts but larger? Im 41, never had kids, 5'4", atheletic 120lbs.... Appreciate your help
Answer: Breast procedure for asymetrical breasts Thank you for sharing your pictures. It helps answer your question better. One of the major points to focus on is lowering your breast fold to match the other one. Additionally, I would suggest a minor lift on the lower breast side to align your areola (nipple). Adding implants will help correct the asymmetry. In your case, two different sizes and profiles of implants might need to be considered.

Answer: Asymmetry From the submitted photo it does appear you are a candidate for breast augmentation. In addition to placing your implants your surgeon can address the asymmetry via a lift. The result will not be perfect symmetry, but they can be improved. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Addressing Breast Asymmetries Based on your picture you may benefit from having a breast augmentation with an implant on the smaller side while combining a mastopexy (breast lift) with or without an implant depending on your aesthetic goal and desired fullness. A breast lift resolves sagging and drooping of the nipple/breast mound as well as reduces large areolas by removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple areolar complex to its appropriate position.

Answer: Breast augmentation Thanks for your question! You do present with several challenges in both breasts; however, I do think you can get more symmetry and size. That being said, I would anticipate at least 2 surgeries, possibly even 3 to get things as close as possible. Please seek out a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon to learn about your options!

Answer: Asymmetry of breasts I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, and they choose what looks right for them. 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 size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.
