Bro, I am pretty sure just about everyone on this forum will tell you they have the same problem as you. IMO no one is completely symmetrical. I see this in the gym all the time where guys will use heavier weights on one arm because it's lagging behind the other. I laugh, because it's in our genetics and it's just the way our body is. I don't think you will ever get the same shape with both arms. I would really like to see what others have to say regarding this issue, because I really don't think it's something that's totally correctable.

Which head is smaller on your left arm? To bring up your weak side you need to train with dumbells as one arm cant compensate for the other.

I agree with live2train. Some things can be corrected, some cant. The only thing I can think of that you could try is to skip your right until they are the same size and do con curls with the right to improve the peak. I cant say that it will get you completely even but it should help (in theory anyway). I think the best thing to do though is to just accept the way your body is. Most likely you are the only one that notices it anyway. I have the same thing but it doesnt bother me, its just the way it is. If it did bother me, thats what i would try.

Do you do deadlifts with the same under/over left/right or right left grip?
I have this problem, it's from all the heavy deads I've done- only I'm right handed, yet my left bicep is bigger and my right lat is bigger than my left (my left tricep is smaller incidentaly!)
I used to lift left hand under/ right hand over all the time. Now I switch it around and do some sumos too.
My advice- switch your grip around for at least half of your lifts.

try start jerking off with the other hand see how that works
i do switch this up. i've started pullin with the left around 8 times a week and the right is getting upset. but i'm now within an 1/8 of an inch.
it was also the dead lifts and hand position. i switched theat also.
