Breast Asymmetry
The Procedure
In female patients, it is possible to camouflage small to moderate asymmetries of the chest region with the use of breast implants placed over the pectoralis major muscle.
The new cohesive silicone anatomical (or teardrop) implants have enough versatility in their range of shapes and sizes to taylor each side to achieve near perfect symmetry. It is possible to use an identical height and width for the two sides, but use a different projection or profile to correct differences in chest wall and / or breast projection.
Dr Belt uses a specialised 3- Dimensional photographic simulation (Vectra TM) to accurately assess the breast volume of each side. This specialised equipment also permits simulation to show how the results would look after the procedure. Dr Belt also uses trial sizers and implants at the time of the consultation to assess the difference between the two sides and show how the various implants would achieve the desired results.
It is also possible for exact sterile sizes to be used at the time of the surgery to further refine the choices of implant size and dimensions. The implant companies supply these sizers at no additional cost to the patient. Doctor Belt would be happy to see you and advise how these techniques can be tailored to your specific condition.
