Asymmetry 1 Month Post, Will Revision Be Required? (photo)

I had Eurosilicone textured anatomical natural cohesive gel, Width:12.5cm Height:11cm Projection:5.9cm & 360cc high profile implants 33 days ago. Now having some pain & discomfort In my right breast. I really don't know which breast is ok... The left that is nice & big or right that is small & painful?I know it is still early days & understand asymmetry before vs after, But i look at my picture before & I do not see why there should be such a big difference as seen now.

At one month after surgery your healing and swelling is only at around 40%. I would allow more time to pass.

Too Early To Assess Your Final Results

Hello, Thank you for sharing your photos. Based on what is posted, you did have a mild symmastia as well some degrees of asymmetry before your had your surgery that were accentuated with your implants. As you can see with the compilation of your photos depicting you recovery process, time is key and it is too early at this point to assess you results.

You have fair amount of asymmetry before,but still it is too early

Implant Settling

At one month after surgery, it is too soon to judge your final result. Allow some more time for swelling to subside and for both implants to settle. Swelling can frequently cause one breast to look temporarily larger. With time and massage, the implants tend to become more symmetric. I encourage you to follow up with your surgeon for guidance through the recovery process

In my experience, the breast implant that settles faster tends to create an impression of a larger breast, compared to the side where the breast implant settles... more

Asymmetry at 1 Month after Breast Implants

Asymmetry one month after breast implants is not uncommon. Allow at least 3 to 6 months before any decisions are made. There was asymmetry preop as well.
