    My doctor said he had put 30cc more in the right than the left. So i went back in for a corrective surgery.

    Corrective surgery 1: He fixed the fold since my right breast was so much lower than the left, but the implant was so huge it still looked wierd. He fixed the lipo he had done on my inner thighs but left me with two extra scars on my leg that I only consented to when I was on valumm that his nurse gave me.

    Corrective surgery 2: He swapped the right one out for an implant 30 cc less to match my left, but it still is bigger than my left. He cut out the lipo scars that were raised and huge bumps and made them into huge thick line scars down my legs.

    Corrective surgery 3: the top of the breast was still muffin top. I went back in for a third surgery cuz he said its a capsular contracture and when he fixed it the problem seemed the same.

    I think the implant is still too big, but I'm sick of paying almost $2k each time with 3 months of recovery each time and also the cost of going to the doctor who is out of town, and staying at a hotel to recover a day before flying back.

    I did research for almost a decade to find this doctor. I feel he's a good doctor, but complications do happen with any surgery. So it's just important to know what you may be in for before starting on this journey.

    do you know what your doctor did to lift them up? did he use alloderm? i went in to get it fixed, i don't know what he used but it bottomed out again--it's only been 3 weeks post op, 2nd time around! i think it's from the swelling.

    i had that pain too. the surgeon said it would take 2 weeks and i'd feel better but it's almost 3 months. after 2 months i finally was able to sleep on my side without too much pain (but still pain). now, 3 months later, i can sort of sleep on my side. hollywood totally glamorizes ba and it seems you recover overnight. however, i now see it's a year process to fully recover from all this. i think u have to wait to see the results. but trust me im in a ton of pain just as you are--and im on holiday and can't even lift my bags (my friend is lifting them for me, cuz if i lift them my boobs swell). good luck. xo

    that sux. i can totally relate, cuz mine are uneven as well. my right one is wayyy bigger than my left (a cup size), he says it's swelling but i'm almost 3 months out. also there is a huge rash under my right breast where the incision is which he is saying is fungal infection and he said i should use a creme and once the infection is gone that my breast swelling in the right side will go down. have you heard anything about this occurring?
