The daily exercise of examination and observation of each patient looking for the plastic surgeon seeks to identify delicate details of asymmetry of the human figure which, in most cases, only make each individual unique. In some cases, however, more pronounced changes can bring discomfort, insecurity and even social segregation. Patients who do not understand their asymmetries are not uncommon until these asymmetries are shown to them. The same should not happen to the surgeon, since recognizing them allows to decide on a better surgical approach, while neglecting them may culminate in an end result, where asymmetries, previously unobserved, become more evident.

This book, written by specialists in Plastic Surgery and Mastology, addresses the asymmetries of the breast in a complete and innovative way. The book also presents cases and rich illustrative photographic material.
