What Can Be Done to Fix Uneven Breasts After Augmentation?

I agree that you may need a revision surgery to correct the asymmetry, however meanwhile, I would place you in a breast strap over the higher breast.  This may be effective enough to allow the higher breast capsule to strech and allow the implant to settle to a lower position.  If successful, you may not need another surgery.  Good luck!

Although it is common for breasts to be uneven as they heal from an #augmentation, #asymmetry is among the reasons some elect revision surgery. However, depending on the reason or cause for asymmetry will determine the surgical technique applied. Also, there is no guarentee that one revision surgery will correct the asymmetry. For instance, any asymmetries regarding the folds under your breasts will not be totally corrected. Additional elective cosmetic #surgery is a personal choice. Your procedures should always be performed by a #PlasticSurgeon who is board-certified and has a great deal of experience specializing in cosmetic #surgery. You will then greatly improve your chances of getting the result you desire, and, without the need for a revision surgery. It is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision. Please be advised that each patient is unique and previous results are not a guarantee for individual outcomes. As with all cosmetic surgery, results will be rewarding if expectations are realistic. With any surgical procedure, there are some risks which your doctor will discuss with you during your consultation.

It’s not unusual for women to have breast asymmetry
following breast augmentation surgery. In many cases this asymmetry was present prior to surgery and was
accentuated by the breast augmentation.Review
of your pre and post-operative pictures suggest pre-operative asymmetry.Your left breast and nipple areola sit lower
than your opposite breast.Following
breast augmentation this problem seems to be even more noticeable.Initially,
your post-operative pictures suggested relatively minor asymmetry, but with the
passage of time your left implant appears to have drifted in a downward
direction.Under these circumstances it
may be necessary to perform a capsulorrhaphy to reinforce the inframammary fold
and re-suspend the implant into normal position.This procedure is associated with excellent
clinical results and high levels of patient satisfaction.If
you’re concerned about post-operative breast asymmetry, it’s important to
discuss this issue with your plastic surgeon.Your surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses
your concerns.It’s important to delay
revisional surgery for at least six months.This allows the situation to stabilize and optimizes the aesthetic
result.

The easiest solution is to lower the right side to match the right.  Also, it seems that the right side may be alittle smaller.  If so I would place in a slightly larger implant.  Raising the right is not a good option.

I do advise patients to wait 6 months to a year to see the final result.  Your breasts may not be done dropping. 

Hi there-

I'm sorry you are not happy...

Improving your asymmetry is going to require another operation....

It is important to understand that even with a revision, you are likely going to have some visible asymmetry, so you need to think about how badly the asymmetry you have bothers you, and whether it is enough to consider having another operation to improve...

With regard to the timing, while I understand your desire to achieve maximum symmetry right away, I would agree with your surgeon that your chances of achieving the best outcome possible increase the longer you wait (up to about 6 months).
