Hi everyone, My right breast is slightly smaller than my left breast, although I am aware this is fairly common. I asked my doctor if I should use a slightly larger implant for my right breast to make up for the difference in volume. He explained to me that he usually reserves that for patients who have a significant difference in volume between their breasts and that mine are similar enough that he worries using a different sized implant might actually worsen the end results. Thoughts?
Answer: Different implant sizes With the photo i think you probably do have maybe 25ccs difference in your breasts. i would have you try on sizers of same size and then with 25cc difference and let you pick which you think looks best. Good luck.

Answer: Using two different implants to correct asymmetry Hello, I frequently use differently-sized implants to help correct a slight size difference. I agree with your surgeon that perfect symmetry may not be achieved because even if two different size are inserted, they may not correct all the subtle shape differences of your breasts. However, in many cases I find it is possible to make the breasts closer in overall size and symmetry.

Answer: Implants If you have saline implants, the volume in each could easily be varied to make you more even. If you chose gel, two different sizes could be tried on the smaller breast to see which one is closer in size to the larger breast.

Answer: Fat transfers Your breasts are slightly asymmetrical in volume. You appear thin but if you are happy with the size of the larger breast then an alternative to consider is fat transfer to the smaller breast. Small amounts of fat may be effective. Implants are not lifetime devices. 8% fail within the first year and 30% fail within six years. Fat transfers are permanent and incorporated into the body.
