Trying not to freak out. After my Implant I was sent home with a Normal and a Collarbone breast. I know having High Breasts is normal when going under the Muscle, and it needs to "Drop and Fluff" The part that freaks me out is I have to walk around work and live like a FREAK - "One Up & One Down" with "Opposite" Breasts? Questions: Will I need More Surgery? Will I ever have a Matching Set? Is there a way to speed up recovery? Is there a trick to relax the Muscle to "Drop" my Breast?

Answer: Concerns regarding significant breast asymmetry after breast surgery. Your concerns are certainly understandable. Although some degree of asymmetry is to be expected, short and long term after breast augmentation surgery, the degree of asymmetry visible on the photograph is quite significant. Depending on how far out of surgery you are, the asymmetry may be related to fluid accumulation. Hopefully, you have communicated your concerns directly with your plastic surgeon; if not, please do so. Again, it will be important to rule out complications that are causing these asymmetry. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be pleased with long-term.

Answer: How do I get my breasts even in height, and do I need further surgery It is clear that the left breast looks higher and fuller than the right side. I have no idea how you looked before the surgery, nor how long you are after surgery, nor the size of the implants on each side. It could be that you have fluid on the left side of the breast pocket. This could be evaluated by a thorough examination by your Plastic Surgeon- perhaps even a sonogram or ultrasound of the breast might be obtained to evaluate as to whether fluid may be present. As you would imagine from my answer the best starting position would be to call your Plastic Surgeon and have him or her see you for a full examination at this time.Good luck to you.Frank Rieger M.D. Tampa Plastic Surgeon
