205cc Sientra HP over the muscle implants. Very unhappy with the way the implants are sitting, causing severe asymmetry. Went back to my surgeon at 3 months and she says due to my age (54) and pre op asymmetry that this is an excellent result. But I'm really unhappy because it's very noticeable not only naked but in clothes as well. Now she's on maternity leave and not seeing patients for a year. I'm scheduling 2nd opinions. This has been stressful. Input on what happened here?

Although your breast exposure is limited because of clothing, you probably have a capsule. You could try oral Accolate and external ultrasound treatments, but may need surgery to resolve the capsule.
You did not provide photos or much information, like volume of implants, previous cup size, height and weight, and photos. I would suggest meeting with a plastic surgeon and discussing the potential size and surgery.
You may potentially benefit from tightening the pocket laterally and below. This would be done with releasing the pocket superiorly (capsulotomies) to permit placement of a more moderate profile but slightly larger implant. I would recommend performing thermal and suture capsulorrhaphies...
