I am 2.5 years post op. I did have minor asymmetry prior to my breast aug, which enhanced significantly after my surgery. I've tried to have some time pass to see if it would still bother me and unfortunately it's something that makes me feel insecure every time I see myself or undress, so I'm looking for a solution. Would a crescent lift on the nipple that's sitting lower be a possible option to correct the issue so that both nipples are aligning symmetrically? Thanks.

Answer: Crescent lift? I perform crescent lifts fairly frequently and believe it is a good technique to lift a nipple 1.5 and sometimes 2 cm to create symmetry with the level of the opposite nipple. The tradeoff is a scar around the upper half of the nipple.

Answer: Circumareola donut mastopexy A crescent breast lift will not be effective. A circumareola donut mastopexy would be better. Also, this can be done to both nipples to create a better symmetry. The one that is lower can be raised slightly higher or the higher one can be slightly lowered.
