Breast asymmetry after hematoma. Is the asymmetry due to my anatomy or the hematoma? (Photo)

Genuine877791Mar 1, 2022
My first surgery was last year. I had 255cc in both breasts. My right breast had a hematoma which we drained. Ever since its been significantly larger than my left. My doctor said that the asymmetry would resolve with time. Fast forward 10 months and it hasn't. It's much bigger and lower than my left breast. He says that there's no more fluid in my breast and my implant is not bottoming out. He says the asymmetry is due to my anatomy but I think it's because of the hematoma. What do you think?

You may have some capsule pulling on the muscle. Do try to stretch and massage the muscle and see if this gets better. External ultrasound could be helpful if this is from a capsule.
