Breast asymmetry

Infor­ma­tion on breast asymmetry

A woman's breast normally develops between the ages of 11 and 14 (thelarche). Not only does the geneti­cally prede­ter­mi­ned mammary gland tissue grow, but also the surroun­ding fatty tissue and connec­tive tissue support­ing the breast. Signi­fi­cant irregu­la­ri­ties can occur during this phase. 

We humans are never really mirror-symme­tri­cal, but if there is a clear diffe­rence in the size of the breasts and often also in the shape of the breasts, this is perceived as very distur­bing and women suffer in their feminine self-esteem. breast asymme­tries due to certain developmental/​inhibition disorders such as the "tubular breast" (popularly known somewhat uncha­ri­ta­bly as the "trunk breast") can also be the cause of a breast shape that is perceived as rather unattractive.

This situation can be managed well from a surgical point of view - whereby the surgeon should have a great deal of expertise in this difficult area. As a gyneco­lo­gist, you are very familiar with this topic and are also used to finding an aesthe­ti­cally very satis­fac­tory solution due to other under­ly­ing breast diseases. 

There are diffe­ren­tia­ted options, either by means of a lifting procedure, often combined with an implant insertion or autolog­ous fat filling to compen­sate for size diffe­ren­ces; sometimes also with a surgical spreading of the glandular tissue behind the nipple and a reduction of the areola. An indivi­dua­li­zed treatment concept must be planned and discussed with the patient in order to achieve the best result. Here too, we will be happy to advise you in detail on your indivi­dual problems.

Further details on breast asymmetry

As there are many different approa­ches to such a problem, depending on its severity, the cost of the procedure can vary greatly.
These can range between CHF 4,800 and CHF 12,000 , depending on how long the procedure takes, which different surgical concepts have to be combined and the costs of anesthe­sia and surgery. In any case, we will take the time to work outperfect surgical plan for you, explain the costs to you in detail and set them down so that you have a clearly defined cost framework. 

The cost of an initial on-site consul­ta­tion is CHF 250. This amount can be credited towards your treatment if it takes place within 6 months. If you do not show up for the bindingly agreed initial appoint­ment, a cancel­la­tion fee of CHF 150 will be charged. 

The following rule applies to agreed surgery appoint­ments: In the case of planned and scheduled opera­ti­ons, it is often not possible for Medicine&Beauty AG to find a repla­ce­ment patient in the event of a cancel­la­tion. Due to these planning diffi­cul­ties, it is only possible to cancel surgery appoint­ments free of charge if this is done in writing by the customer at least 7 days (calendar days) in advance by e-mail or WhatsApp. 

For cancel­la­ti­ons made less than 7 calendar days before the planned operation, the customer will be charged 50% of the previously agreed operation costs. Appoint­ments canceled by Medicine&Beauty AG for health, medical or technical reasons cannot be refunded or compen­sa­ted. An alter­na­tive date will be offered at no additio­nal cost.
