Unhappy with breast surgery

Richard P. Rand, MD answers: Options to correct breasts and nipple position?

I had a breast augmentation w/ breast lift a month ago. I had these procedures a month ago and I'm still very unhappy with my results and nipple position. My left breast is disfigured. It dips in on the side and is squared-looking compared to the right side. What are my options? Thanks.

I can certainly understand why you would not be happy.  The breasts have not been lifted enough and need more elevation of the nipple and areola even if it means more scars such as the anchor scar.  Right now your tissues are swollen so you should let them heal for 4 months and then have a revision done for sure.
