Breast Symmetry Operations
Breast symmetry operations aim to correct or improve the balance between the two breasts, ensuring a proportional and natural appearance. These procedures are often used in breast reconstruction after mastectomy or for aesthetic reasons.
Types of Breast Symmetry Operations:
- Breast Lift (Mastopexy): Raises and reshapes sagging breasts, improving symmetry by restoring a youthful shape and positioning.
- Breast Reduction: Removes excess tissue to reduce one or both breasts, correcting disproportionate size and alleviating physical discomfort.
- Breast Augmentation: Uses implants or fat grafting to increase volume, improving symmetry when one breast is smaller.
- Fat Grafting (Lipofilling): Transfers fat from another part of the body to the breast, enhancing shape and volume for a more natural look.
- Breast Implant Revision/Replacement: Addresses complications with implants, such as shifting or capsular contracture, to restore symmetry and appearance.
Benefits of Breast Symmetry Operations:
- Improved Aesthetic Balance: Enhances shape, size, and position for a more symmetrical appearance.
- Restored Natural Look: Essential for those undergoing breast reconstruction to regain a natural breast shape and boost self-esteem
- Comfort and Confidence: Corrects physical discomfort and boosts confidence in appearance.
- Better Fit: Improves how clothing and swimwear fit.
- Psychological Benefits: Helps restore normalcy and femininity, particularly after cancer treatment or surgery.
