Before surgery
Breast asymmetry correction will differ depending on the extent of the asymmetry and the patient’s individual goals. Both breasts will likely undergo augmentation to achieve complete symmetry.
A patient care concierge will guide you through the entire consultation process, which can be attended in person or virtually. During the consultation, your surgeon will learn about your goals, answer any questions, and perform an examination to create a personalized surgical plan. You will then be matched with a surgical coordinator who will walk you through each step of the preoperative process.
During surgery
There are a variety of surgical options available to correct breast asymmetry. The most common options include one or a combination of the following:
After surgery
It is typical to experience some swelling and soreness for the first few days following a breast augmentation. Patients typically begin feeling better within three days and return to work within the week if their job is not overly strenuous. Pain, swelling, and sensitivity will linger for a few weeks but subside enough to allow you to return to most activities.
Patients are encouraged to walk immediately after surgery to prevent blood clots and improve circulation. Rigorous exercise should be restricted for two weeks, and upper-body activities should be avoided for six weeks.
Your surgeon will provide specific instructions for optimal post-operative care, including an advanced scar management protocol after the initial healing period. Your surgical team is always available and will closely monitor your recovery in the weeks and months following surgery.
