One breast seems to be more swollen than the other.. should I be concerned?
Answer: Breast asymmetry Thanks for your inquiry, but without pictures and more details it is hard to advise. Some asymmetry can be normal, but other cases many represent a problem--please call your surgeon to discuss.

Answer: Yes, some early asymmetry can be normal. After breast augmentation, your breasts can heal at different speeds. One may settle sooner than the other. One may resolve swelling more quickly. One may soften before the other one days. At 3 weeks, you’re very early in the healing process. Unless the swelling is new, one breast may just be healing a bit slower than the other one. If the swelling is new or significant, you may want to check with your plastic surgeon to ensure that everything is OK and your breasts are healing well.

Answer: 3 weeks post op, one more swollen Thank you for your question. It is quite common for one breast to be a bit more swollen than the other following breast augmentation surgery. That being said, increased swelling, redness or pain should be evaluated. Best to follow-up with your plastic surgeon. Good luck.

Answer: One Breast Still Swollen at Three Weeks BA Post-Op Thank you very much for your question and congratulations on your recent breast augmentation procedure. At three weeks’ post-op, you are still in the early stages of your recovery. It is not uncommon for your breasts to be healing at different rates, with one more swollen than the other. Unfortunately, without a photograph, it is difficult to provide any more specific advice for your situation. It is important that you bring your concerns to your operating surgeon, as he/she needs to rule out a more serious problem.
