One Breast Bigger Than the Other? (photo)

At 3 months post-op, most of your surgical swelling should be resolved, and softening and settling of the implants in each of their pockets should have occurred. Your asymmetry is quite visible (not minimal), and you have every right to question your surgeon about what may be going on. Schedule an appointment, and ask to review your pre-op photos with your surgeon.

Pre-existing asymmetry may be part of the explanation, but your present appearance may also be due to pocket creation differences, inadequate or incomplete muscle release on one side, bleeding or fluid on one (the larger) side, or even early capsular contracture. A single photo on the web does not replace an in-person evaluation by your surgeon, or one of several ABPS-certified plastic surgeons who would be happy to give a second opinion, if your own surgeon is unwilling to do so.

BTW, implant rupture is so unlikely that I didn't even include it in the list of possibilities for your asymmetry. I am unsure why you are worried about this; the present generation of silicone gel implants are cohesive and cannot leak. Rupture is theoretically possible and I have seen it 3 times in over thousands of patients with present-gen implants, but unless you survived a head-on collision where your breast hit the dashboard or seatbelt at 50mph, there are very few ways your implant could have sustained the force necessary to rupture it. Put that concern to rest! Best wishes!

Depending on the reason for #revision, it's typically  best to wait approximately 6 to 12 months to undergo the next breast procedure.  Matters such as sagging or drooping  and size change will not improve with time. As with all cosmetic surgery, results will be rewarding if expectations are realistic. With any surgical procedure, there are some risks which your doctor will discuss with you during your consultation. It's best to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeons who have specialized in breast surgery and cosmetic surgery are suitable to perform your breast augmentation. You will then greatly improve your chances of getting the result you desire, and, without the need for a revision surgery. Aside from checking board-certification, it is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision. Please be advised that each patient is unique and previous results are not a guarantee for individual outcomes. 

Thank you for your question.

It would be in your best interest to go in and discuss this with your surgeon as he/she knows your history the best.  It is very common, however, to have one side settle at a slower rate than the other side - I see this often.  I suggest aggressive downward massage on the side that hasn't settled to see if you can help the implant settle.

Again, because your surgeon knows you best, discuss this with him/her and get his/her advice.

Best wishes.
