Breast Asymmetry Surgery: Guides
Twelve guides to correcting a difference between the breasts. They assume you have already read what an augmentation is; what they add is how a plan is built when the two sides are not the same, what has to be excluded before planning begins, and why balance rather than identity is the honest target.

Start with two assessments, not one decision
Arrange an assessment. We will measure each side separately, say which breast becomes the reference and what operation each one would need, and tell you plainly which part of the difference an operation cannot correct.
