Unfortunately you do have signs of early symmastia.  Revision with smaller implants would be of benefit.  The decision to proceed depends on how much it bothers you.  Consider discussing further with your surgeon.

Richard J. Brown, MD · Answer

You do not have symmastia. You probably have swelling in
that area that will go down over time. It is nothing to worry about.

Miguel Gallegos, MD, FACS · Answer

NoThis is not synmastia.In the mean time, don't use bra that pushes them up and together.

Khashayar Mohebali, MD, FACS · Answer

Its a bit early to look for symmastia in my opinion.  Based on your pictures, there is a gap between your breast which means the pockets don't connect and no "uni-boob".  Anyway, 5 weeks is too early.  Let everything heal and then evaluate and continue with follow ups with your surgeon.
