Is there anything I can do? - Monday, May 25, 2009 4:39 AM
I'm eighteen years old (turning nineteen in three weeks :] ) and I have an extreme variation in the size of my breasts. Just estimating, the left is roughly a B cup or small C cup and the right is a D or DD.   Within the last year I have begun to have extreme chest pain when I lie on my side in bed if I am not wearing a bra. The pain is worst when I lie on my left side. I believe the pain is caused by the extreme difference in the size of my breasts. 

I would like to aliviate this extreme pain by evening out my breasts, but I do NOT want implants, and I don't want to simply reduce to the smaller breast size as it would not be proportionate to my body. I am also afraid that I can do nothing at this point because of my age (women technically exit puberty at 21, so if I did something now the work might be undone if my breasts continue to grow afterwards), and the pain is getting progressively worse.

Can anything be done for me?

Hello there Krystin!

I have researched this quite a bit because I wanted to give you the best possible options, but I have to be honest with you, both of the scenarios you mentioned not wanting to do are probably going to be the popular recommendation for you from any plastic surgeon. Reducing the size of your larger breast to be the same size as the smaller one would definitely help with breast-weight related back pain, but I am concerned about the amount of pain you say you're feeling in your chest. Have you spoken to a doctor about that?

At 19 years old, your body has matured enough for breast augmentation, however changes in breast shape and size can and will continue to fluctuate throughout your life based off of weight gain or loss, natural gravity and more. I think you are probably going to find that the best thing to do here is to visit with a Breast Asymmetry correction specialist in your area and discuss the options. Let us know what you decide to do!

All The Best,
Audrey
