I had a breast augmentation 6 months ago and my breast look so uneven. One looks longer and fuller at the top whereas the other one looks way more round. Do you know what may have caused this or what is going on?

Answer: Uneven Breast Implants Sorry to read about your issue. Although it is difficult to diagnose by photos alone, it does perhaps look like you may have developed capsular contracture or your implant never settled properly secondary to the dissection. The way you can tell yourself is by squeezing the implant at the bottom on the good side and feels how it move nicely and now squeeze the bottom of the breast/implant on the higher side. If the implant does not move as well then it is likely that you have developed capsular contracture.

Answer: Breast asymmetry Thank you for your question. There are multiple reasons that this may have happened. One reason is If this happened immediately after surgery, the pockets that the implant are in may be uneven. If this developed later it may be capsular contracture. I know either way, if your outcome is bothering you, you should consider a revision. Good luck.
