Breast Asymmetry Correction

3373

This 26-year-old woman suffered breast asymmetry and loss of breast volume after breast-feeding 2 children. After expanding during pregnancy, her breasts had shrunk dramatically, leaving her right breast noticeably lower than her left one. To find out how plastic surgery after childbirth could help her restore her pre-baby breasts, she made an appointment with one of the skilled surgeons at Marina Plastic Surgery.

This patient discussed her surgical options carefully with her surgeon before she settled on a breast augmentation procedure to restore volume and improve symmetry in her breasts. For some women, severe asymmetry can only be corrected with a combination of breast augmentation or reduction with a breast lift, but in other cases the augmentation alone is enough to correct position problems to a satisfying degree. In this patient’s procedure her surgeon placed two textured saline implants under the chest muscle on each side. He filled her right breast to 325cc and the left one to 300cc.

He also performed a circumareolar mastopexy, a Beverly Hills breast lift technique to improve the position of the right breast by tightening the tissues around the nipple. This procedure is a popular choice to correct mild breast sagginess because it lifts the breast moderately without creating obvious scars.

After her procedure, this patient’s breasts not only look fuller and more shapely, they also balance each other beautifully. The patient is happy with how natural and symmetrical her new breasts appear and is pleased to be able to enjoy her “pre-baby” shape again.
