You look quite good

John Philip Di Saia, MD answers: Uneven nipples after breast augmentation and lift

I recently had breast lift and implants (200 cc, 1 cup size bigger, age 26 no kids) 2 weeks ago, and my nipples look like something out of a child's coloring book. They're completely uneven, choppy, and not at all near perfectly circular. Will these eventually fix themselves? I also thought the breasts would be higher. Does this look like a well executed lift?

Hello,

I do not know what your discussion with your surgeon before your procedure was like, but you look about as good as we usually can get. You are very close to exactly even. Small differences are quite common as is some degree fo recurrent sag of the breasts. You should be quite happy.

A: Breast asymmetries exist in many patients

Overall, you appear to have a nice result for only two weeks post op. Of course it is not perfect as you suggest; however, you can see that you were quite asymmetric preoperatively. Give it some time to allow for your breasts to heal. If you are unsatisfied after several months, you may benefit from a small revision at a later date.
