Breast Augmentation for Uneven Breasts

    PHOENIX, AZ, June 26, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Women seek breast augmentation surgery for a variety of reasons--for a fuller figure, for a more youthful breast shape, and sometimes to even out the size of their breasts. Uneven breasts are fairly normal. In fact most women have one breast that is at least slightly larger than the other. However, for women with noticeably uneven breasts, breast augmentation surgery can be a great solution for bringing them into balance.

Getting Started

The first step in the process of achieving a balanced, full breast shape is to think about how you want to look after your breast augmentation surgery. Having realistic expectations, especially about size, is crucial to a successful procedure with minimal risk factors. Even before speaking with a surgeon, try looking at an online photo gallery to see some breast augmentation results other women have had.

Next, it is time to consult with your physician to make sure you are healthy enough for surgery and then begin your search to choose the right breast augmentation surgeon for you. Read about the surgeon's experience and qualifications, check out the results other patients had, and be sure to read some patient testimonials for extra information.

Big Decisions

In consultation with your Phoenix breast augmentation surgeon, you have several important decisions to make. Your surgeon will inform you of all your options as well as the risks and benefits of each. Be sure to let your surgeon know if you have any health conditions or medical issues, even if you do not think they will affect the surgery.

One decision you and your surgeon will make is whether you want saline or silicone breast implants. For women with uneven breasts, you may decide on just one implant to balance your breast size or you may just augment both breasts at the same time. Saline and silicone breast implants have different advantages and disadvantages, but both are considered safe and effective by the FDA.

You should also talk to your breast augmentation surgeon about the final size and shape you desire. Again, be realistic. If you want very large, balanced breasts, there may be increased risk of complications in the breast that was originally smaller due to the size of the implant. Choosing a size, with advice from your surgeon, will help your surgeon decide on the best placement for your breast implants--submuscular, subglandular, or another placement.
