Implants and scars different on the left and the right

If you are having difficulty with your scars and your implants, visit another plastic surgeon in your area. There is no way to give you advice over the internet without any photos and without examining you. Best of Luck.

CONCERNS POST BREAST AUGMENTATION

I recommend you seek an evaluation from another plastic surgeon who performs Breast Augmentation in your area. It is not totally clear from your question whether you have developed capsular contracture on the right side or the left breast implant is displaced. These questions can be easily answered by undergoing an examination by a competent plastic surgeon.

Revision surgery from breast augmentation

Without a photo and a better description it is not possible to determine what happened and the extent of your problem. It sounds like you had some degree of capsular contracture. If this is the case then it can be corrected with a revision procedure

Breast Augmentation and Problems?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to give you good advice without direct examination. Although difficult to tell by your description you may be dealing with breast implants malposition and/or encapsulation; it would be best to be examined by well experienced plastic surgeon in your country. Best wishes.
