My natural breasts are different sizes. One is slighter smaller then the other, I want to get silicone implants under the muscle. I want them to be the same size!
Answer: Using Different Size Breast Implants For Augmentation Using Different Size Breast Implants For AugmentationIf there are small differences in size, I may choose to use the same implant. As the volume approaches 1/2 to one full cup size, two different implants should probably be used.

Answer: Breast Augmentation with Mini Ultimate Breast Lift(TM) Breasts frequently are different sizes, shapes and position. Unfortunately, you have not provided any photographs but there may be other asymmetries. If your breasts are asymmetrical I recommend a new technique called Breast Augmentation with Mini Ultimate Breast LiftTM. Using a circumareola incision it is possible to reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Through the same incision, implants can be placed. Aligning the areola, breast tissue and implant over the bony prominence of the chest wall maximizes anterior projection with a minimal size implant. Small round textured silicone gel implants placed retro-pectoral look and feel more natural, are more stable, less likely to ripple or have complications needing revision. Implant profile is irrelevant in the retro-pectoral position since the muscle compresses it. This technique can correct asymmetrical size, shape and position. Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Different size implants Thank you for your question. It is very common for women to have differences between breasts. Without pictures, it is hard to correctly answer your question. Having a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon will help you determine if two different size implants are needed to help you achieve your goal. Best of luck!

Answer: Not uncommon to have two differently sized implants You said that your natural breasts are different sizes. In order to achieve a more symmetrical look, it makes sense to use implants that are sized appropriately to give you the result you want. This is not uncommon in patients; most patients have one breast that is slightly smaller than the other. I would make sure to try on different implant sizes during your preoperative appointment (or whenever the sizing is done) so that you get a clearer picture of what the final result may look like. Good luck with your surgery!

Answer: Different size implants? Most women have slightly asymmetric breasts. In choosing implants, it is important to note that in the pre-op setting. If the asymmetry is only slight, like 25-50cc, it might not make a noticeable difference with different sized implants. That small volume difference is like a swallow of water. It should be noted, thought, the small asymmetry will still be there after the surgery, and can potentially be a little more noticeable. If, however, larger asymmetries exist, there is a greater need for different sized implants to balance this out. Good luck.
