Timing of surgery: Surgery is considered after the normal breast is fully developed which could be after 18-20 years of age or before at periodic intervals if we contemplate to do fat grafting.
Surgical options and the procedure:

An additional procedure such as breast lift (if drooping) may be required for the normal breast to attain match to the opposite side. If fat grafting is decided upon, the Doctor will explain the details of the procedure on consultation.
