Asymmetrical breasts are more than just unbalanced in appearance. They can cause women to feel extremely self-conscious when wearing more revealing clothing such as tank tops or bathing suits and can make it difficult to find bras in department stores that fit and function correctly. Women in the Austin, TX area who are struggling with breast asymmetry are welcome to speak to the providers at Austin Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery to discuss their needs with one of our professionals and find out how to obtain better balance and aesthetic appearance.
How can asymmetry in the breasts be corrected?
The idea behind breast asymmetry surgery is to provide women with a more balanced and attractive appearance to the breasts, especially when the difference in size and shape between the two are apparent. To do this, our team may use one or more approaches, including:
- Breast augmentation – by inserting an implant into one or both breasts, they can be both enlarged and evened out using this augmentation strategy.
- Breast lift – women who are older or have experienced sagging of the breasts may use a breast lift to correct asymmetry along with drooping or stretched breast tissue.
- Breast reduction – women with larger breasts may consider a reduction in one or both breasts to provide a more even appearance while reducing symptoms that may be bothersome such as back and neck pain.
- Combination – some women may combine two of more of these strategies to achieve the results they desire.
Am I a good candidate for breast asymmetry surgery?
During a consultation, our clinicians will evaluate you and speak to you about your unique and specific concerns regarding your breasts. We can then make recommendations based on this information, as well as a review of your medical and health history.
