Its been about 3 months post opt. One of my breast is higher than other and it seems to be pointing in diffrent directions. I think prior to my surgery there was a slight variation on how my boobs pointed. Am i still in healing procrss and my boobs will drop to be the same? How about the direction of the nipple? I have 475 cc on right 450 cc on left. Silicone

Answer: Breast Augmentation and Asymmetry Most patients do have some asymmetry before surgery and at times this asymmetry becomes a bit more apparent after the procedure. This is at times because you are paying more attention now to your new breasts as well as the implants accentuating the asymmetry.It usually takes about 4-6 months for the implants to settle and to be able to say that you are at your final result.I would recommend discuss this with your plastic surgeon when you are 6 months out to see if there is any thing that can be done to help improve your results. At times a revision surgery is not worth the risk for what may be gained.Good luck.

Answer: Asymmetry 3 months postoperatively Breast augmentation will typically not completely correct pre-existing asymmetry and in some cases, may make it more apparent. Without preoperative photos, it is difficult to determine if the asymmetry you're referencing is simply a manifestation of your normal anatomy or new asymmetry from your augmentation. I do advise patients to expect some changes up to 6 months from the date of your surgery so it is possible you will experience additional subtle changes. I would of course relay your concerns to your surgeon as he/she clearly knows you and the specifics of your surgery best. Hope this helps and good luck!
