I'm 8 weeks post-op from a breast reduction. I want to know if how I look is normal at this stage. (photos)

my right breast is bigger than my left (after 8 wks). My right aereola is bigger than my left. I know it 'takes time' for swelling to go down, etc. My scars are healing. But I'm still 1 cup bigger on the left, and 2 cups bigger on the right than I wanted. (I wanted a B cup). But the biggest thing I'm worried about is the non-matching aereolas.
