Hello! I'm a 21 year old girl who is pretty fed up with having uneven breasts. My left breast is about a 34D, while my right looks like it could be a B cup at best. Since I've heard breasts are pretty much done growing by age 21, I'm trying to look for an alternative. What would be a procedure I could use where I don't have to get implants, but can still keep a relatively good size, if at all possible? If implants are a must, I'll get them, but right now I guess I'm trying to keep costs low.
Answer: Procedure to fix breasts without implants Thank you for your question, and photos. You have some asymmetry. You are not alone. Plastic Surgeons see this in the office all of the time. You can get a breast lift with out implants. It all depends on your body habitus and your goals. If you like the cup size and would like the nipple areola complex higher, then a lift usually is just fine. If you want some upper pole fullness, that is usually accomplished with an implant. In your case, (as you do not want an implant), you might consider a small reduction on the left side. Find a couple of photos that you like. See your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. He/She will guide you through the process.Jeffrey J. Roth, M.D., F.A.C.S.Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLas Vegas Plastic Surgery

Answer: Different approaches to increasing breast size? Creams and herbs will not work, save your money.Not many good choices to have larger implants without surgery. You can research and try "BRAVA" suction device, or gain weight (not advised).Surgery is the most dependable and predictable method using implants or your own fat.

Answer: You have options First, uneven breasts are very common so don't despair. Generally options include reduction/lifting more on one side than the other with or without implants. Another option is removing fat from the larger breast with liposuction and now with the growing trend of fat injection for the breasts the smaller breast can be enhanced. Seek consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Keep in mind that at the young age of 21, you don't want to do too much with potential problems and commit yourself to to re operations for years.

Answer: Fixing breast asymmetry Thank you for your question and your photo. Indeed you appear to have a fair amount of breast asymmetry, though your breasts are each nicely sized and shaped. The most effective method of symmetrizing your breasts will likely be a reduction of the left breast, with a simultaneous lift (mastopexy) of the right. This will allow near matching of the breast volume, as well as shape, areolar size, and scar pattern.

Answer: Asymmetrical breasts You have 2 options to achieve symmetrical breast shape and size:1. Add an implant to the smaller breast so it is the same size as the larger breast2. Breast reduction to the larger breast so that it reduces to the same size as your smaller breastThere is not a long-term non-surgical option that will give you the results you are looking for. I know you do not want an implant right now, however you did mention you want to maintain a relatively good size, so the way to achieve that would be with implants. At this point I recommend you consult in person with a board certified plastic surgeon so you can learn more about both options and decide which option is best for you. Good luck!
