Answer: Wanting more symmetry with right breast. Would areola reduction be enough or would I need lift/aug? Happy with size. Your symmetry would be improved, albeit not perfect, with an areolar reduction. Most would find the improvement adequate and allow you to avoid more extensive surgery. If you are happy with your size, there is no justifiable reason to add implants.

Answer: Asymmetry Good evening, I think an areola reduction would be a reasonable approach to achieve better symmetry- to me you do not need implants if you don't want them and you are happy with your current size!

Answer: Areola reduction If you are unhappy with the overall shape of your right breast in relation to symmetry with your left, then a breast lift is recommended. However, based on your photo and the info you’ve provided, it sounds like your only concern is your areola. For this reason, areola reduction on your right breast may be sufficient to achieve your goals.

Answer: Areola revision If you are happy with your breast size then you do not need augmentation. If you are unhappy with the areola then I recommend an areola revision only. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Asymmetry The asymmetry of your breasts is mild. If you want to correct the areola asymmetry you could reduce the larger one, which would only have a slight impact on the overall breast. I encourage you to visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to discuss the risks/benefits of the procedure to help you determine what is best for you.
