The Procedure

The surgery to correct anisomastia may include an increase of the smaller breast with a silicone implant placement, the decrease of the larger one, or both procedures simultaneously. Depending on the nature and causes of anisomastia the surgeon will choose the appropriate intervention for correction. The postoperative course is similar to other breast surgery procedures.
