Hello, i have just had an operation an hour ago and I am very worried as my nipples are not simmetric, although they were before. I always though that oneof my breasts is slighlty bigger than the other, however my doctor said they are not. It seems that not only horizontally they are not in line but also vertically. Please have a look at my picture. Is this normal? And what can be done if it is not normal. Thank you very much
Answer: Nipple asymmetry after breast augmentation Hi,Thanks for posting your question. I am happy to try and help you. It is important to remember that a board certified plastic surgeon will be your best resource when it comes to an accurate assessment of your situation, and concerns. Having said that, nipple asymmetry should be identified preop to alleviate any anxiety post op. You are too early in the post op to be worried. But you should look and study your preop photos. Because ultimately your result should be your breasts made larger.I hope you found this helpful. Have a great day.

Answer: Nipples are not in line with each other. Hi, CiroMar. Congratulations on your surgery! Based on your limited view of the chest, it is difficult to assess your concern. However, you may have differential swelling and implant settling as you heal. You are only one hour post-op. Please give at least 4-6 weeks for swelling to decrease and 3-6 months for implants to settle. Be patient and follow your plastic surgeon's post-op instruction. Best wishes.
