I am 9 days post op. My breast were about the same size before my surgery, therefor I got 525 cc's in both breast and ever since 2 days after surgery I have noticed that my left breast is larger then my right. Is one healing quicker than the other? Is this normal or is something wrong?
Answer: Unequal breasts after breast augmentation
Having unequal breasts after surgery is completely normal. You did not have a perfectly symetrical canvas before, and you will not have one after the surgery. In fact, the subtle differences present before surgery will become more noticeable after expanding your breast. If, however, you have a significant difference in volume that was not there immediately after the surgery, then you should see your physician immediately to ensure that you do not have a bleed.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Revision uneven breasts after an augmentation It is quite common for the two breasts to heal differently. One may swell more, one may feel more uncomfortable, or the shapes may differ initially. After complete healing, they should look more similar and natural. Patience is required, but if you are concerned, ask questions to your doctor or the nursing staff. #breastrevision #breastimplants

Answer: One breast larger than the other after augmentation
It is normal to have swelling after breast augmentation and sometimes the swelling can be uneven. This means that one breast may be slightly larger than the other after your surgery until the swelling goes down. If one breast is significantly larger than the other, this can signify a problem such as bleeding or fluid collection. If there is significant difference in your breasts, you should see your surgeon to be examined.

Answer: Breast Asymmetry after Breast Augmentation?
Thank you for the question.
Some degree of breast asymmetry is to be expected after breast augmentation surgery. If the asymmetry is significant and/or one breast feels different in firmness etc. you should be seen by your plastic surgeon relatively quickly. Occasionally, breast asymmetry may be a sign of a complication.
Best wishes.
