Tags: asymmetry, 1 month post-op, strattice

History: reduction at 16 yrs, BA+lift at 21,& revision w/ strattice at 28. Pics are pre-revision, 3 wks post op, & 5 wks post op. I love my PS and I think there is a huge improvement from where I started but I still am unhappy w the shape of my breasts. I'm also unhappy w the asymmetry. Is this just my genetics? Or do u have any suggestions I can talk to him about for improvement? I almost like them better when they were swollen @ 3 wks bc they look fuller. Implants are orig high profile saline
