3 years ago I got a unilateral reduction on one side to fix breast asymmetry.The breast that was reduced sits higher and has a smaller areola.I've been back two other times to the same surgeon to lift the other side, he didn't want to lift or change the size of the other areola, even though that's contributing to the asymmetry.Can I ask my previous surgeon to fix this with a bilateral breast lift?I don't trust only working on one breast anymore.I've wasted 3yrs and so much money for these results
Answer: Unilateral breast lift for symmetry All breasts are different right to left before and after any surgery.

Answer: Asymmetry A revision would help you to improve the asymmetry in volume, shape, and areola size. Please be aware that perfect symmetry is not a realistic goal from surgery as each breast will be slightly unique from the other. I encourage you to visit with a few board certified plastic surgeons to listen to varying opinions.

Answer: Breast asymmetry I would agree that matching the scar patterns would improve the symmetry and areolar size/shape.

Answer: Improvement in symmetry could be possible. Thank you for your photos. Remeasuring the dimensions of your breast, such as sternal notch to nipple distance and nipple to inframammary fold distance, would show whether these distances are equal as possible or whether trimming additional skin or elevating your areola could benefit your breast shape and appearance. If your “skin envelope” is essentially the same and the volume within is nearly the same, your breast appearance should be as close to symmetry as possible. Best wishes.

Answer: Bilateral breast lift? It seems you should sit down with your plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns about the different aspects of your present situation. Having bilateral surgery may be a good idea if your surgeon understands your desires and determines whether they can surgically approach your expectations.
