Breast Asymmetry

Depending on the expertise of the specialist, various methods can be considered for asymmetric breast surgery. Depending on the situation, a prosthesis can be applied for a smaller breast, or larger breasts can be reduced with appropriate methods. Both of these processes can be applied for different breasts in a single operation. In cases where the degree of asymmetry is not too high, the breasts can be brought into proportion using fat cells taken from the individual’s own body.

With breast asymmetry surgery performed according to the goal, proportion can be achieved, and nipple asymmetry issues can also be corrected. If there will not be excessive tissue removal in the operation, there will be no issues such as disruption or cutting of milk ducts. Depending on the degree of breast asymmetry, surgical intervention can be applied under local or general anesthesia.

Following the surgery, depending on the doctor’s decision, the patient can be discharged on the same day or may stay overnight in the hospital for one night. After a few days of rest at home, the individual can comfortably return to their daily life. Additionally, bathing is possible 2 or 3 days after the surgery. Any potential swelling that may occur typically diminishes significantly after one week.

The special sutures used are only visible as a single line and over time, they minimize to the point where they are barely noticeable. Both physically and psychologically, asymmetric breast surgery is increasingly performed today to gain self-confidence, as it helps to address uneven breasts and nipples to achieve an ideal appearance, depending on the severity and individual’s functional body structure.
