Is Left Inframmamary Fold Too Low After Tuberous Breast Aug? (photo)

Pre-op pic does not show tuberous because nipples are erect,but was told by four doctors that I have slight tuberous.Post-op,left fold was lower and sat lower.My previous question asked the opposite, but now I'm nervous that the left IMF was over dissected.The left breast was the smaller one pre-op.The post-op photo is a mirror shot so it is shown as my right.The left IMF seems about .5 inch lower than right. Will this get worse as they settle,will wearing an underwire bra higher on left help?
