One boob higher and harder than the other. I’m 3.5 weeks post op with gel implant under the muscle. (Photos)

I’ve recently got my stitches re done due to it splitting. However, from the very beginning of my post op I realised my left boob was slightly higher and more swollen than my right one. It’s now coming up to 4 weeks post op and it’s still slightly higher and fuller compared to the right one but have no pain at all. Is this normal? I’ve been reading about capsular contraction and haven’t found anything about early symptoms. Should I be worried?
