During my bilateral mastectomy, breast tissue expanders were inserted. My right breast tissue expander later became infected and was removed. Recently, it was reinserted and is now about 1 to 2 inches higher than the left breast expander. They are very lopsided, unlike when they were initially inserted at time of mastectomy. Saline injection process has not yet begun. How can height difference be fixed before DIEP-Flap reconstruction, if possible? If not, will surgery correct it? Thanks!
