How Soon After a Breast Augmentation Do I Have to Wait to Have a Revision?

First of all you do not have bottoming out. Secondly two weeks is much too early to consider a revision. At the moment I think your breasts look fine.

SERIOUSLY! Only 2 weeks. Plus I do not see any "bottoming" out yet! Best to allow 3 months healing time than determine if there is an issue. 

You do not have bottoming out and it is too early to know what your breast will look like.  You should be patient and wait at lest 6 months before you will see the final result.  Even then, there may be progressive changes as you age and your tissues relax and drop.

You have a nipple height discrepancy (left side of photo (Your right nipple)) and the surgeon has dropped the inframammary fold under your breast on that side more than the other (It may have been too high to start with).

If after 6 months, things still don't seem right to you, it may be reasonable to consider revising one or both breasts.  I would expect the higher breastto drop enough that the asymmetry is not perceptible.

Hope that helps.

Good luck.

At two weeks it is a bit early to really say if you are bottoming out. Best to give it time to heal. If concerned review this with your surgeon.

Thank you for the question and pictures. Although your concerns are understandable based on viewing your photographs, it is much too early to evaluate the end results of the procedure performed. In other words, most likely the position of the breast implants will continue to change over the course of the next several months. Therefore, best to evaluate the end results of the procedure performed (generally speaking) approximately 6 months after it was performed.  At that point, if significant breast asymmetry exists and you feel that one breast implant is lower than the other, internal suture “repair” (capsulorraphy) may be indicated.

 Do your best to remain patient and follow up with your plastic surgeon who will be your best resource for advice and/or reassurance.

 Best wishes.

It is a natural desire to have your breast implants look perfect on the first day that you see them.  Unfortunately it takes a few months for the tissues to soften and for you to know what your final look will be.  That being said, you should express your concerns to your plastic surgeon.  They can show you how to do displacement exercises and how to do wraps / straps / and different bras to help shape the final results.  Be patient and best wishes to you.
