Uneven Breast Correction
Breast asymmetry, or unevenness of the breasts, is a very common problem. In fact, everyone, no matter how ‘perfect’ their breasts are, have a slightly different shape comparing the two sides.
These patients have some degree of unevenness, some worse than others. Most of these patients had a lift and augmentation on one side, and only had an augmentation on the other side. For small amounts of unevenness, sometimes only different size implants are all that is necessary. You can see the before and after and the improvement.
I’m always surprised why patients do not address this problem early in life. Like a lot of the things we do (breast augmentation, liposuction, tummy tucks, removal of excess skin after weight loss, etc), I don’t think people realize that they do not have to live with something about their appearance that they don’t like. Patient education is a big deal…not just educating patients what can be done, but also a big part of our informed consent process.
