I have small, uneven breasts that I wish to correct with BA surgery. Recently, I decided to contact plastic surgeons near me to discuss options. Today, I was told by a surgeon that I have scoliosis (never heard of this condition before), and that the 'unevenness' can never be corrected. I was also told there is no way to know how the breast augmentation will look until after the procedure. Also, that my skin is very thick, and this will lengthen time of recovery. Does this all sound realistic?
Answer: Breast Augmentation Without seeing you in person, it is impossible to comment on your surgeon's assessment. However, I would think that a breast augmentation could help with your asymmetry although keep in mind that no two breasts are ever perfectly the same. Perhaps seek a second opinion from another board certified plastic surgeon in your area (link below) and see if his or her recommendation is the same as the first surgeon. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Answer: Breast asymmetry Volume differences between breasts can be corrected with breast augmentation. Nipple and breast position on the chest often require a mastopexy.

Answer: Scoliosis and breast asymmetry Dear YasminMany thanks for posting your question.The first thing to say is that NO-ONE has perfectly even breasts. There are always differences between them, and this is entirely normal.Secondly, scoliosis, which is a curvature of the spine, is also very common and frequently contributes to a degree of the asymmetry between your breasts. With careful planning, enlarging your breasts and making them more even will be possible, however, it is important to understand that perfect symmetry will not be achieved, and this is quite normal - as I said, no-one is perfectly symmetrical.My advice would be to see someone with a high volume breast augmentation practice who also has an interest in breast asymmetry for expert advice and treatment.Good luck with your journey

Answer: Expectation and result from breast augmentation Hi, Yasmin1990.Although no one is perfectly symmetric between the left and right, this can be improved with breast augmentation. You will continue to have a slightly asymmetry. However, if your goal is to have fuller, more symmetric breast, breast augmentation will be able to achieve that.It is important to understand benefits, limitations, possible complications from surgery. Please select an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon.Having a thick skin does not increase the surgical time.Best regards.
