How long does breast asymmetry surgery last? Will I need further surgery?

If your surgeon has performed breast augmentation as part of this surgery then you will have had implants fitted. These tend to last for ten to fifteen years. Once that time has passed they will need removing or replacing.

The breasts are subject to the ageing process, gravity, pregnancy and childbirth. If you gain or lose weight then they will also change in size and shape. So surgery may be needed again at some point in the future.
