Dear Terrific227246,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong.

Do you have any discomfort? Do you feel as though there is a significant difference in the texture or Firmness of that implant. Also, sometimes this can result from simply your underlying anatomy, or the operative technique used. Each breast has different breast, anatomical asymmetries at baseline most of the time. However, being patient with your results is also an option as well. This can take a significant amount of time for the breast to soften and fall into their final position. How long has it been since your initial operation? You do appear to have an aesthetic result, however, I understand your concern. Have a goal directed conversation with your board-certified plastic surgeon and we are happy to help you in any way we can.
