I'm not going to post a picture but basically one is a D cup and the left side is like a small C. I hate the way they look and am saving for a boob job. I was wondering what the best way to go would be.. My right sides (D-cup) nipple is much larger than the other sides (C-cup) and I'm so insecure about it and never show my boobs to my boyfriend of a year. Any ideas of what I can do to change this?? Need help
Answer: Breast Asymmetry Hi there, thanks for sharing your question. It would be in your best interest to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon once you have your funds in order and are over 18. They will do a thorough evaluation and decide what procedures you would be the best candidate for. Best of luck. -Dr. Coan

Answer: Uneven breasts in girls age 17 or under are managed on a case-by-case basis Having done breast surgery for years, and having two grown daughters of my own, I can totally understand how difficult this issue is for a young lady. When the breasts are sufficiently uneven, or asymmetrical, the only way to correct this is with surgery to balance the size of the breasts. In short, this can be done by making the large side smaller or making the small side larger, depending upon what the individual preferences of the patient are. Additionally, there are often other things that need to be addressed as well, such as asymmetry in the position of the nipples or the breasts themselves, ptosis or "drooping" of one or both breasts, or differences in shape of the breasts. These are all things that need to be closely evaluated in person during a consultation so that the surgeon can figure out exactly what your goals are and hopefully come up with a sound plan that can reliably deliver that result. This may involve reduction of the size of one or both breasts, or the use of implants. In actuality, we rarely do something to only one breast in instances like this because symmetry is usually better if we do similar things to both breasts, whether that be reduction, augmentation with implants, lifting, or any combination of those. There are also some forms of surgery which are best reserved for women over the age of 18, thus at 17 years old, you may need to wait a little longer for that type of surgery. Generally this is surgery involving breast implants. My best advice for you at this point is to schedule some consultations with board certified plastic surgeons who have experience in dealing with breast surgery of all types, because they will be best suited to evaluate you as an individual taking into account the structure of your breasts and what you would like to look like after surgery, and then come up with a plan to achieve your goals. In addition to being certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, your surgeon should also voluntarily participate in the Maintenance of Certification program administered by that board. This is the best way to know that your surgeon not only has the best training and experience for the procedure, but that he or she has maintained currency in the certification requirements as opposed to practicing on a "lifetime" certificate which has only been reviewed once at the beginning of his or her career. For more information on this you can visit ABplsurg.org or ABMS.org. Good luck.
