Double Bubble may need support.

Hello, and thank you for your question and photos. I can see the area on the right breast (which is a mirror image) that you speak of. There may be a little area that is dissected there and if early enough, may be taken care of with constant support of this area.

Double Bubbling or Bottoming out?

Some asymmetry of the folds (slight) but neither bottoming out nor double bubble is present. Any chance of seeing pre-op photos that might show the folds--they may not be even from before surgery. Follow up with your surgeon. Patience. Best wishes.

Double Bubble and the Inframammary release

It appears to me that the fold has been released a bit too much and shows the classic double bubble. This may get better with time, but it is not for certain. I would plan on discussing with your plastic surgeon and possibly doing a small operation to set the fold.

Fold issue after breast augmentation

It is difficult to say what is exactly going on without an exam. But it does look perhaps that the area is dissected more or weak as compared to the other side. If this was recently performed, a band along the fold may help. Best to follow your doctor's advice.

Bottoming or double?

Hell and thanks for posting. Overall, your breasts look good. The left breast is a bit lower and could from slight bottoming or a reflection of your anatomy as it was before surgery. At this time, it's unlikely to need revision, but discuss your concerns with the PS and see what they recommend. best wishes, Dr. Aldo.

How far along are you in your recovery?

Hello, Thank you for the question and the photos. How far along your recovery are you at this time? This is an important factor in determining the likelihood of additional change. I see no reason to pursue a revision at this time and would recommend that you continue to support your breasts with a proper garment that you and your plastic surgeon have chosen. With time, your breast healing will be complete and you can decide if you like what you see or if your... more
