Asymmetrical Breasts? Consider Your Options

Nearly a quarter of all women experience uneven breast size throughout their life. Even more women face unevenness after lump removal or partial mastectomy. It can be challenging to live with, especially if the size difference is significant. Fortunately, women have options when it comes to correcting the problem. The best choice for you will depend on your desired results.

Breast Augmentation

If the size of your breasts is uneven, you may choose to increase the size of both. You can choose the ideal size, and your surgeon will adjust the size, shape and placement of the implants to ensure the look and feel of your breasts are symmetrical once you’ve healed. This is the most common solution to asymmetrical breasts, as many patients enjoy the benefits of breast augmentation and a more even appearance.

Breast Lift

Depending on your current and desired appearance, your surgeon may suggest a breast lift on its own or paired with augmentation. A breast lift helps to even out the position and shape of the breast and may also include resizing or reshaping the nipple. A breast lift on its own doesn’t add volume, so this is a perfect option for patients that are happy with their current size.

Breast Reduction

While not as common, you may choose a breast reduction surgery to create symmetrical breasts. This could include only reducing the size of the larger breast or reducing both breasts to the size of your choosing. Those with breasts large enough to cause back pain and other health problems may choose reduction surgery to help relieve symptoms. Large breasts may even cause social anxiety, body shaming or poor self-esteem.
