I am one week post op. I am already very worried I did not go big enough. I am 5'3" and 150 lbs. Preop I was a 34 b. My goal was a full c small d. My doctor had me go with 350cc moderate profile under the muscle. They seem so small still. What can I do? Also, why does my right boob (left in the picture) look like it is messed up? will my boobs start to come together when I can wear a bra? Will they form cleavage?

I am pretty sure that what you are referring to is the area on your right breast which appears to just be irritation from the tape. You do have some stretch marks on both breasts, but they appear to be old. So, again, presuming we are referring to the same area, I wouldn't worry....
At 8 weeks, your breasts should still soften a bit over the next 1-4 months. Textured implants do move significantly less than smooth implants and generally remain firmer as well. However, you are still early in your postop period and should give things a little more time to settle....
Thank you for the question and photo. Surgical bras are supposed to give support and compression. They are not meant to be too tight. This would be best discussed with your plastic surgeon. Best of luck. Dr. Michael Omidi
