Women who seek breast augmentation have a high prevalence of breast asymmetries. However, it is unknown how common breast asymmetries are among women undergoing other kinds of breast surgeries. In a prospective plastic surgery database, the measurements of the breasts of consecutive women who were being evaluated for breast plastic surgery but had not had any prior breast surgery were recorded. They were arranged into three gatherings as per the introducing bosom issue: macromastia, ptosis and hypoplastic breasts Correlations were made between the right and left half of every patient with respect to the evenness of the areola complex (size and position), bosom hill and chest wall.
