I am 5 months post op from breast augmention. I had 450cc placed in both breasts. While they both feel soft and move easily, my right breast still sits higher and is noticeably more round toward the top. I am worried it is becoming more noticeable as the left continues to drop. Should I expect this to even out? It is worth a revision? I do not have any pre-op photos, just one earlier post op.
