  • Hormonal changes  –  natural hormonal fluctuations can affect breast size and shape.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding  –  changes in breast volume can occur before, during, and after pregnancy.
  • Underlying medical conditions  –  some conditions can contribute to differences in breast size or shape.

  2. Selecting the appropriate techniques
    Correction often involves a combination of procedures such as breast augmentation with implants or fat grafting, breast lifting, or breast reduction.
  3. Resizing and reshaping
    One or both breasts are precisely resized and reshaped to create the desired symmetry.
  4. Attention to detail
