One implant dropping slower than other, will they even out? (Photo)

Hello,Your asymmetry seems significant, although as the others said it is still early. One thing that will not have any effect is implant massage. This is a method  proven to be ineffective, which causes more harm then good; it places the blame of complications or unsatisfactory result on the patient, by giving them the idea that massage is an important part of process. Massage is unnecessary for normal healing, and will not prevent or treat capsular contracture, something you may be developing. Give it 3 to 6 months. If you do have capsular contracture, you may opt for a revision surgery, something that should be performed though an inframammary incision, not a periareolar incision. 

I appreciate your question.





Right now, you are very early on in the post op recovery period. It will take 3-6 months for you to feel comfortable having implants in your body and for them to settle. This time allows for you to physically and psychologically adapt to your new body image. There are many variables that contribute to a breast augmentation's final result. Preop size and shape, IMF location, location of the implants and type of implant. Patients heal at different rates and each breast will sometimes heal at a different rate. Rest, relax, recover and heal. Please Express your concerns to your surgeon so he/she can examine you at this time. Then reassess final result at 6 months.





The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.



Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.





Best of luck!
