Since different techniques can be applied to both breasts, the operation time varies between 2-3 hours. Symmetry is aimed.
Women may naturally have a slight difference between the breasts; however, a significant difference in size, form or nipple position can be aesthetically disturbing. Asymmetry correction surgery is performed to harmonise the two breasts.
Operation Duration 2.5 hours
Anaesthesia General
Discharge The next day
Return to Social Life: 3-5 days
Who is it suitable for?
It is suitable for patients with congenital asymmetries, developmental differences, tissue differences due to hormonal reasons or deformities due to previous surgery. Asymmetry may be based on volume, form or nipple position.
Applied Techniques
Both breasts are planned at the same time. The smaller breast can be augmented (implant), the larger breast can be reduced, or if there is sagging, it can be lifted. Alignment of the nipples is also included in the surgical planning. If necessary, the procedure can be performed on one side.
Breast asymmetry is a difference in volume, shape or position between the two breasts. This can affect the aesthetic appearance and reduce self-confidence. With surgical correction, a more symmetrical and natural appearance is achieved by achieving balance between both breasts.
The informed consent form is a legally required document signed by the patient prior to any medical procedure.
Please consult your doctor for detailed information. You will be asked to review the consent form carefully before your surgery.
Operation and Recovery
The operation time varies between 2-3 hours. Hospitalisation is usually not required. Rest is recommended for the first 5-7 days. Scars remain around the nipple or in the inframammary fold depending on the surgical technique chosen.
Aesthetic Result and Follow-up
The goal is symmetrical, natural and proportionate breasts. The results are usually permanent; however, differences may occur over time due to factors such as weight change and pregnancy. Long-term follow-up is recommended.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can unilateral surgery be performed?
Yes. If only one breast needs correction, balance can be achieved with unilateral surgery.
Is it problematic to use different implants?
No. Symmetry can be achieved by applying implants of different volume and projection to both breasts.
Can a lift be performed together with this procedure?
Yes, it is. It is quite common to lift the sagging breast in the same session.
