Correction of Breast Asymmetry Procedure


A slight breast asymmetry is very common, when the asymmetry is very remarkable you might want to correct the asymmetry. The correction can be done either by augmentation of the smaller breast or reduction of the large one. The decision between the options is made together with the surgeon, depending on your anatomy and the degree of asymmetry.

You should be above age 18, not nursing or pregnant and in good general health to undergo the correction.

If you're going through the augmentation procedure, the surgeon will make the incision in your armpit, around the nipple or under the breast fold. Then he'll separate the skin from the breast tissue in order to insert the implants. The insertion can be above or below the chest muscles. Most of the implants today are filled with silicon and come in different sizes and shapes.

The reduction procedure involves a vertical incision from the nipple down and a horizontal incision below the breast fold. The extra fat is removed using a liposuction and the breast size is adjusted to the other one.

The length of each procedure depends on the degree of asymmetry and procedure technique. After the surgery you'll have bandages around your chest, sometimes a drainage tube is also placed to avoid blood and fluid collection. Breast augmentation stretches the tissue, therefore there may be a significant amount of pain after the surgery, especially during the first 48 hours. Painkiller antibiotics and anti inflammatory drugs are often prescribed.

Breast reduction involves a larger scar but it goes through less sensitive areas, therefore the pain is less and can be easily treated with painkillers.

Every procedure has its risks. Augmentation may result is implant contraction, rupture of the filling, the implant may move and nipple sensation may be lost. Reduction is usually safe, but can cause bleeding, infection and delayed healing.

Expect to feel tired and sore during the first 48-72 hours. You'll be able to go to work after a week or so, but you should avoid strenuous activities for up to 6 weeks. Complete recovery usually takes 2 month. Until then expect that your scars will be pink and sensitive for 6 weeks, then they'll begin to fade. It is normal for your breasts to be swollen for 3-4 weeks.

  • Hong Kong Airport Express

    Apart from taxi, the fastest local passenger transport to the airport is the Airport Express train that zips you in and out from the Kowloon and the Central district. The journey takes only 23 minutes, and there are plenty of baggage handling officers to help you get heavy bags on and off of the train. There is no need to tip them. Each way costs $60-$100, or a round trip for $110-$180, depending on the distance travelled. After arrival, free shuttle buses connecting to major hotels in Kowloon and Central are provided, or you can continue onward by MTR or taxi.


    The Airport Express Tourist Octopus 3-Day Hong Kong Transport Pass gives you an Octopus card (see Get Around) good for 3 days of unlimited MTR travel, plus one ride on the Airport Express (for $220) or two (for $300). In effect, you're paying $70 for 3 days on the MTR, which is a fair bit of travel but might be worth it if you're planning to visit the Lantau Island or the New Territories. You can return the card after use to get back $50 deposit, or keep it for your next trip — any leftover value will remain valid for 3 years. [You can also add money to the card, which you can use for payment at many vending machines, some stores, and when taking the Star Ferry.]

  • Hong Kong History

    In January 1841, as a result of the defeat of the Qing Dynasty of China in the First Opium War, Hong Kong became a British colony, under the Convention of Chuen Pi. After the defeat of China in the Second Opium War, the Kowloon Peninsula was ceded to Britain in 1860. In 1898, the New Territories — a rural area north of Boundary Street in Kowloon district — were leased to Britain for 99 years.

    In 1984, the Chinese and British Governments signed the Joint Declaration on the Question of Hong Kong, giving Hong Kong back to China effective 1 July 1997. Hong Kong became a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the Peoples Republic of China. Under the slogan "One Country, Two Systems", Hong Kong remains a capitalist economy without various restrictions that apply in mainland China such as news censorship and foreign exchange controls.

    In accordance with the Joint Declaration, a Basic Law was enacted to serve in effect as a constitution for the Hong Kong SAR. In theory, Hong Kong enjoys "a high degree of autonomy" in most matters except foreign and defense affairs. In practice, it is more complex than that. Beijing exerts much influence and there are groups pushing for a more democratic regime.
