A woman’s breasts are always changing. Whether it is because of puberty, pregnancy, or aging, the appearance of the breasts is always changing. In many cases, these changes can lead to asymmetrical breasts.
Breast asymmetry is a condition where one breast appears different from the other. The breasts may have different sizes, volumes, positions, or forms. Breast asymmetry is a very common condition that many women suffer from. Women with asymmetrical breasts often get very self-conscious about their condition. They even have a hard time finding properly fitting bras and clothes. Their self-image and self-confidence get negatively impacted and they become awkward and uncomfortable in social situations.
Fortunately, at Arra Aesthetics, we offer a safe and effective solution to breast asymmetry: breast asymmetry correction surgery!
The following are some of the causes of asymmetrical breasts:
Hormones
Age
Genetics
Gravity
Certain medical conditions (breast hypoplasia, breast amastia or amazia, Poland syndrome)
There are many different types of breast asymmetry. Some of the most common types of asymmetrical breasts are:
When one breast is visibly larger or smaller than the other.
When one breast is placed higher or lower than the other.
When one breast droops or hangs lower than the other.
When one or both breasts have an unusual shape.
When one or both breasts have misshapen or disproportionate areolae, projection, or bulge.
When one or both breasts have nipples at different heights.
The best way to treat noticeable breast asymmetry is through breast asymmetry correction.
Breast asymmetry correction is a surgical procedure where the appearance of the breasts is changed so that they look balanced, proportional, and aesthetically pleasing. In breast asymmetry correction, breasts can be lifted and shaped, smaller breasts can be enlarged, larger breasts can be reduced, and if required, breast implants may be used in one or both breasts.
Women all over the world suffer from breast asymmetry, but the asymmetry is different for each individual. The breasts may have uneven size, shape, volume, or even a combination of the three. Each woman with asymmetrical breasts will have her own vision of how her breasts should look. That is why breast asymmetry correction is a highly individualistic procedure since every patient will have a different problem and requirement.
An ideal candidate for breast asymmetry correction is:
An adult woman with fully developed breasts.
An overall healthy and fit individual.
A non-smoker or someone willing to quit smoking for the period prescribed by the surgeon.
Someone unhappy with the asymmetrical appearance of her breasts.
Someone who has realistic expectations from the surgery.
If you fit the above criteria, then you are an ideal candidate for breast asymmetry correction surgery. Book an appointment with Dr. Vasant Gholave to learn how this procedure can help you gain your ideal breasts.
During the consultation for breast asymmetry correction, Dr. Vasant Gholave, Director of Arra Aesthetics, will carefully examine the patient’s breasts. He will discuss the patient’s wishes and desires with them. He will form a treatment plan based on his examination and the patient’s needs.
Dr. Vasant Gholave believes that open and honest communication between patient and surgeon is essential to get optimal results. He will describe the detailed procedure to the patient, including the expected results and the possible risks. He will also answer all doubts the patient may have about the procedure. Dr. Gholave will ensure that the patient will undergo the procedure with realistic expectations and without any fears.
Before the procedure, Dr. Vasant Gholave will inquire about the patient’s full medical history, including any medications they may be taking. The patient may be asked to stop taking certain medications to ensure that no complications will occur during the procedure and the recovery. The patient may also be asked to get a mammogram and a few blood tests to check for any underlying conditions that may complicate the procedure.
The following are the steps of breast asymmetry correction surgery:
First, the surgeon administers general anesthesia or local anesthesia for the patient’s comfort.
Then, the surgeon makes an incision on the target breast (usually under the breast or around the areola). The location of the incision is determined during the consultation.
If the breast needs to be reduced or lifted, the surgeon removes excess breast tissue and skin.
If the breast needs to be enlarged, the surgeon increases the size of the breast using fat grafting or breast implants.
If required, the surgeon will reposition the areola and the nipple.
After the surgery is complete, the surgeon closes the incision and places sterile dressing over it. If needed, the surgeon may place drains around the surgical site.
Generally, breast asymmetry correction surgery takes around 2 hours.
The patient will be able to return home the same day as breast asymmetry correction surgery. Some post-surgery swelling and bruising are generally expected. The surgeon will prescribe pain medications to reduce any discomfort. The patient will be asked to wear a surgical bra or another supportive garment to reduce any swelling and to support the breasts during healing.
The patient will be able to return to their daily routine after a few days. They are recommended to avoid any vigorous or strenuous activities for at least 6 weeks after the surgery. The patient must attend the follow-up sessions with the surgeon so that the surgeon can analyze the healing and the results of the surgery. The stitches and the drains will be removed according to the surgeon’s analysis.
Like all surgical procedures, breast asymmetry correction carries certain risks. These risks are:
Bleeding
Fluid accumulation
Redness
Temporary swelling and bruising
Visible scarring
Unsatisfactory results
At Arra Aesthetics, our team of experts takes every effort to make sure that the procedure is completed safely, without any complications, and to the patient’s satisfaction.
