How do I fix my asymmetrical, sagging boobs? (Photo)

L
lipa24Mar 15, 2024

Healthy, active 24 year old with no kids (160lb, 5'4). My boobs have always had sagging and asymmetry since puberty, I was hoping to magically grow out of it somehow but nothing changed. What do you suggest to correct it? Do I need a lift with implants, or could I get an implant large enough to correct the ptosis? Is there any way insurance would cover part of it? I am an avid gym-goer and do powerlifting/bodybuilding. How will surgery impact my bench press/upper body exercises?

Hello, I suggest if you want to increase size to go up by at least 100cc. Anything less it won't make much of a difference. It would also depend on the placement of the implant and the style you will be using to achieve the look you desire.

Hi there, I would recommend that you go to your primary doctor and start a workup for your symptoms. What you are describing is very generic meaning there are many things that could cause your symptoms. You will need lab work, allergy tests, etc. I would not immediately jump to the implants as...

Hello, You may ask 10 doctors the same question but you may get 10 different answers. If you like to workout or have a labor intensive job I may suggest going on top of the muscle. There would be no muscle animation and less risk of implant displacement. All the best, Dr. Joe
