I had my BA three weeks ago, saline, under the muscle. I have pectus excavatum and had asymmetry, so I received 350 cc in the left and 500 cc in the right. They now seem very close together. I like this look and the deep cleavage, and am aware that my pre-existing condition lends to that, but I worry that it can be the early signs of symmastia. I'm looking for another opinion before I really start to worry!

Answer: Concerns about symmastia Thanks for your pictures. Your breast augmentation looks very good!. You do not suffer from symmastia. Your breast is just very close together but definitely distinct and separate.

Answer: Symmastia after breast augmentation Based on your pictures, I do not see evidence of symmastia. It appears that you have deeper cleavage than most patients due to the pectus excavatum condition and the large size of the implants. If the cleavage were to become elevated and less defined it would be more concerning. There are surgical garments designed to support the cleavage area and gently resist the medial pressure of the implants that can occur with certain bras. You might feel better with some additional support in that area. Discuss your concerns with your surgeon.
