Uneven nipples after breast augmentation and lift

Breast Augmentation and Breast Mastopexy results are dynamic in the first few months after the procedure. In the initial setting, variations in healing and edema will likely obfuscate the final result. I advise patients to be patient with their mastopexy / breast augmentation results for the first few weeks.... more

I would like to join the opinions posted by my colleagues. For a fresh post-operative result, your results are GREAT and they will continue to improve with time. If you stepped back and critically looked where you were BEFORE surgery and where you are now - the improvement is tremendous. Some postoperative... more

From what I see, you look to have a good result after your operation but you have a lot of healing to do.  Healing is almost never symmetrical so time may very well erase your perceptions.  My guess is that you are going to be pleased but it will take a few months.  Also, no two breasts are... more

Overall, you appear to have a nice result for only two weeks post op. Of course it is not perfect as you suggest; however, you can see that you were quite asymmetric preoperatively. Give it some time to allow for your breasts to heal. If you are unsatisfied after several months, you may benefit from a small... more

Small asymmetries are common. Every patient has two different breasts before surgery. As a result, they usually tend to heal a bit differently. Breast implants also will settle or drop over the first month or two once implanted. Occasionally, they descend at different rates. Be patient, most likely this... more

This is an excellent early result and the surgeon has been keenly accurate in his design and execution. Some vagaries of asymmetry exist with all plastic surgical operations at careful scrutiny. We always strive for perfection, but yet fall short of absolute! The breasts will continue to remodel, change over... more

As you can see from the other answers, you have a result for this short period of recovery that is about as good as it gets.  Hopefully you will evolve to appreciate that over time.

 If the nipples do not "round out" a small revision may be in order.  Otherwise this looks like a very nice and natural result.  The degree of lift is largely defined by the patients anatomy.  The inframammary fold is a an anatomic landmark the usually defines the bottom of the... more

Hello, I do not know what your discussion with your surgeon before your procedure was like, but you look about as good as we usually can get. You are very close to exactly even. Small differences are quite common as is some degree fo recurrent sag of the breasts. You should be quite happy.

Two weeks is very early to be too concerned about the breast appearance.  In addition you do have to take into consideration where you were before the surgery.  Meaning what kind of asymmetry did you have.  There's still swelling now and once that's gone you can have a better/objective look at... more
