Im 6 months post op from a breast augmentation and a lift on one side, to correct asymmetry (left breast was a D cup and right breast was a B cup.) I’m super happy w the results but for some reason, my right implant has not shifted correctly into place. Before, I was told I had a constricted right breast and that it would take longer to settle, but now my surgeon is considering doing a revision. I’m doing massages and the usual thing, but I just wanted to know if a revision is necessary.

Answer: Breast Revision Thank you for your question. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to breast revision surgery. Unfortunately, your surgery was poorly performed. I deal with a breast asymmetry commonly. The most important aspect when dealing with significant breast asymmetry is to remove breast tissue from the larger breast so that you can use the same size implant making the breast appear similar both in size and shape. Several years ago, I published a paper that allows me to do this on a consistent basis termed Reductive Augmentation. Over time, your issues will just become worse and he will need a revision. Best wishes to you.

Answer: BA results Dear Genius289093, I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.
