Is it normal for the dominant side to appear smaller after BA for some time?

Asked By:LittleAL in Connecticut, CT

I'm 4 weeks post op and my dominant side appears smaller than my less dominant side. Does it take longer for the dominant side to stretch and fluff as it is being used more often/has a tighter muscle?
