How Can Breast Augmentation Address Asymmetry?
Nearly everyone has some degree of difference between their breasts. For some people, the variation is subtle. For others, one breast has noticeably less volume, sits differently, or has a different shape.
During breast augmentation planning, each breast can be evaluated separately. When size disparities are the main concern, using two implant sizes may help bring the breasts into closer proportion. LUXURGERY specifically accounts for this possibility when asymmetry is present.
Implant size isn’t the only consideration. Breast width, existing tissue, chest anatomy, nipple position, and your desired shape all influence surgical planning. The goal isn’t to make your breasts mathematically identical. It’s to create a result that looks balanced with your individual anatomy.
Will I Need Different Implant Sizes?
You might. Dr. Shridharani uses an inflatable implant sizer during surgery to help determine implant volume, and different sizes can be selected when asymmetry calls for it.
You’ll also have choices involving implant material and shape. LUXURGERY offers both silicone and saline implants, along with fat transfer for breast augmentation. Your starting anatomy and the type of difference you’d like to address will help determine which option makes sense for you.
Can Augmentation Correct Every Type of Breast Asymmetry?
Breast augmentation is especially useful when asymmetry involves volume disparities, but unevenness can have multiple causes. Differences in breast position, skin, nipple placement, or sagging may affect what implants alone can accomplish.
That’s why an in-person evaluation matters. Looking at each breast individually allows your surgical plan to address what’s actually creating the imbalance rather than focusing only on cup size.
