For women in Cheshire, Mr Reza Nassab offers breast asymmetry correction with consultations at CLNQ on King Street, Knutsford, and surgery under general anaesthetic at Deansgate Hospital in Manchester city centre. Patients from Knutsford, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Macclesfield and Altrincham can be assessed and followed up close to home, with the operation a short drive away, all by the same surgeon.
When uneven breasts become a concern
Some difference in size or shape between the breasts is normal and very common. Where one breast is noticeably larger, lower or differently shaped, it can make finding a well-fitting bra difficult, limit clothing and swimwear choices, and affect confidence. Asymmetry may have been present since the teenage years, sometimes with tuberous breast features, or may have developed after pregnancy, breastfeeding or weight change. Surgery aims to improve balance between the two sides.
Surgical approaches
Each plan is tailored because no two cases are the same. The smaller breast may be enlarged with an implant, or both breasts may receive implants of different sizes. A lower or looser breast can be lifted; a larger breast can be reduced. Fat transfer can refine volume in selected patients. Many women need a combination, such as an implant on one side and a lift on the other. Mr Nassab will explain the reasoning behind the plan he recommends. See also augmentation mastopexy.
Consultation at CLNQ Knutsford
Consultations take place at CLNQ, King Street, Knutsford, a calm private clinic in the heart of the town. Mr Nassab will listen to your concerns, take a medical history and examine both breasts, noting volume, shape, nipple position and chest wall. Where implants are likely, he will discuss size, shape and profile with you. You will receive a clear explanation of the options, recovery and risks, together with a written quote. The consultation fee is £150 and is separate from surgery costs.
Your operation at Deansgate Hospital
Surgery for Cheshire patients takes place at Deansgate Hospital in Manchester city centre, a short drive from Knutsford. On the day you will meet the ward team and your anaesthetist, and Mr Nassab will review your plan and make pre-operative markings. The operation is carried out under general anaesthetic. Depending on the procedures involved, you may go home later that day or after an overnight stay, wearing a supportive bra and with written aftercare instructions, pain relief and a direct contact number.
Local convenience for Cheshire patients
Having consultations and follow-up in Knutsford means short journeys for many patients from Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Macclesfield, Altrincham and the surrounding villages, and Deansgate Hospital is a manageable drive on the day of surgery. This is helpful in the early days after surgery, when car journeys can be uncomfortable and you should not be driving yourself. A pillow between the seatbelt and your chest can make the journey home more comfortable.
Aftercare and follow-up in Knutsford
Your follow-up appointments are held at CLNQ Knutsford, beginning around a week after surgery and continuing as the breasts settle over several months. Mr Nassab will check healing, advise on bras, returning to work and exercise, and review how the two sides are balancing. If one breast becomes rapidly swollen, tense or very painful, contact the surgical team urgently. Fever or spreading redness should be reported the same day, and calf pain or leg swelling needs same-day GP or NHS 111 advice.
Price
Breast asymmetry correction costs from £8,750. This includes the surgeon, anaesthetist, hospital and theatre fees, implants where used, a support bra and routine follow-up. The £150 consultation is charged separately. Finance may be available through Chrysalis Finance; Reza Nassab Ltd is a credit broker, not a lender. More detail is in the cost guide.
Suitability
Surgery is for adults aged 18 and over whose breast development is complete, who are in good general health, at a stable weight and ideally non-smokers. If you are planning a pregnancy, it may be better to wait. Mr Nassab is a Consultant Plastic Surgeon on the GMC Specialist Register and will advise honestly on whether surgery is right for you.
In the weeks leading up to your operation, stop smoking and nicotine products, keep your weight stable and tell the team about any medicines or supplements you take. Buy two or three soft, front-fastening, non-wired bras, and prepare your home so that everyday items are within easy reach without stretching overhead. Arrange for someone to drive you to and from Deansgate Hospital and to help at home for the first few days, particularly if you have young children.
