I’m really unhappy with my breast reduction results.. You can see my nipples point in different directions and are not symmetrical in how they are centered in the areola. The areolas also seem to sit toward the side of my breasts, not in the center. And they are at slightly different heights on my chest. The left breast is also about a cup size smaller than the right. Are these issues that can be fixed? I’m worried about having more surgery and not seeing better results

Answer: Asymmetry after breast reduction Thank you for your query. It appears that your breast reduction is relatively recent. There will be settling down of tissues for upto one year. Some fat injections or micro liposuctions can equalise the volumes and scar revisions, if needed at the end of one year, can also improve the rest of your contours. Please find a board certified Plastic surgeon near you ,if you want a second opinion, and have all your concerns after a thorough history and examination. All the best!

Answer: Can Asymmetry after breast reduction be corrected? Hello @sneakers85, thank you for your question. Having breast reconstruction can improve aspects such as uniformity in the height and centeredness of the nipples. After surgery, it can take up to a year for you to fully recover from the breast reduction and to have a revision. To determine what the best course of action is, a personalized consultation is required, in which all aspects are considered. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
