Does This Seem Like the Correct Size?

I am 5'6" and 215 lbs. I was a 38A before BA and had implanted 457cc on R and 492cc on left saline. I was hoping to be a C or D cup as final result. I do not feel or look like I am even close to that. The picture was taken at 2 weeks post-op. My PS says that I will not get any bigger, plus I am worried about my right breast. MY PS says it is asymmetrical but does not know why. It has been almost 3 weeks and still has not dropped at all. I am very dissatisfied! I am barely fitting into a 40B cup!

Breast Augmentation Size

Although your result is early, your PS is right in saying that your breasts will not become larger in size, and, in fact, you may become slightly smaller once your postoperative swelling resolves.

Early Breast Augmentation Result Disappointment

With what appears to be your chest size and body weight, your goal of a C or D cup appears to require much more volume. There is also the issue of the asymmetric right breast but your result is certainly more asymmetric than what you had prior to surgery. With your body size and... more

Disappointed breast aug

I understand where you are coming from.I always tell my patients size post op depends on the distensibility of thew tissues and the size of the chest wall.You can not put a gallon of milk into a quart container.They look good and you had soem assymetry pre op.

Does This Seem Like the Correct Size?

I appreciate you posting your photos. When I compare the before to after views I see an acceptable result. The improvement over the before is good, could it be better? YES. But I always tell asymmetric breasts patients it is a surgical journey. Meaning up to 3 operations. You now need Stage II a larger right implant with a possible donut lift. I believe you need to have a realistic view on the final outcome, just look at your befores. Best of luck.
