Dent at Bottom of Areola and Square Shape Breast

There are many minor or modest irregularites present early on in the healing process that tend to improve over the course of healing--usually by three months, occasionally a bit longer.

If it doesn't go away, it can be revised later. The lift on the right side is probably the cause for the flattening on the bottom. I'm not certain what technique your surgeon used, but it is also common after lifts to have this as it usually droops down a little afterwards, so he/she may have overcorrected it on purpose.
