“One implant sits higher than the other”
Breast implants: Undecided
Cost: $4,700
Pain: Uncomfortable
Pain: Uncomfortable
Breast implants satisfaction: Good
I do not recommend my Breast implants provider: Name not provided
Why: He seems to always look over the fact I am pointing out what I am unhappy with from my results. He is not the best with communication skills.
I chose to get breast implants to improve my overalll self image and self esteem.
Pros:
I fill out shirts better
I look more feminine/womenly
Cons:
They are very different from one another
I cannot go braless because it is obvious one sits higher
I cannot wear a bathing suit because it is obvious
I feel more self conscious then when I didn't have implants

I think you results look great. I have the same issue with one implant sitting a bit lower. It's a subtle difference to everyone else but it bothers me. The implant can be repositioned but that does require further surgery. That's what I'm looking into. Good luck

Hey you...I'm hearing ya! Hang in there. It's early days...sometimes the bigger the implant...the longer they take to settle. I am just 8 weeks p/o myself. I had 335 unders and my lefty rides high...but in the last week it has dropped a little. I think you look great! Good luck...G

I overlooked that you are only 2 months out. It does take time for the implants to drop sometimes even 6-12 months before they finally settle. Hopefully you'll be happier as time goes on.

I hear, too, that it takes some time for the breasts to settle. If you look at pictures of people a few weeks after surgery and compare them with a year later they look sooo much better. I haven't had breast augmentation done. I'm trying to do research right now and don't know many people from NM to ask. Who was your surgeon, if you don't mind my asking.

It is the same situation I have. Two different levels and now I also have scar tissue harder in my right breast (already lower) so I can see it much more. I feel you.

I have the same issue but am only a month p/o. I have been told that this can be fixed by the Dr due to how the pocket was shaped for your implants & the scar tissue you may have already had. I go in for my followup tomorrow...I will let you know what he says. I am also smaller on that side too, so may need to get them redone! :/ hopefully at his expence since he should have worked that out with me before surgery.
