This 23-year-old woman wanted her breasts to be fuller and more symmetrical. Her right breast drooped slightly more than her left and the nipple was positioned about one centimeter lower than her left side. Additionally, her right nipple was half an inch larger in diameter than her left. Unhappy with her breasts’ appearance she wanted to find a Los Angeles breast augmentation surgeon with had a lot of experience working with cases like hers. She made an appointment with one of the surgeons at Marina Plastic Surgery Associates to discuss her options for breast enhancement.

To address her right-side asymmetry, her surgeon performed a breast lift with the incision limited to around the nipple to minimize scarring and to match her left side. Her breast implants were inserted through areolar incisions (around the nipple) and placed into a submuscular pocket. This placement often gives patients a natural slope and shape without inhibiting breast function.

After her surgery, this patient’s breasts were dramatically larger and more even than before. Her surgeon was able to improve the size, shape and position of the breasts by combining augmentation and a breast lift in Southern California. She was very pleased with her results.
