I had a breast augmentation and lift done in Mexico 6 months ago. My breast started looking different from each other after about 8 weeks. One was a lot softer than the other, I’ve healed more and now they feel pretty similar but they still look different. Is this normal? Is it a part of the healing process? Or was I botched?
Answer: Why do my breasts look so uneven 6 months after surgery? It appears as though the higher breast may be encapsulated - meaning excess scar tissue around the implant. This can only be resolved with surgery.

Answer: You get what you pay for Your implants are over the muscle leading to increased risk of scar contracture and rippling, both of which you appear to be exhibiting. Your scars indicate poor healing around the nipple areolar complex. You would benefit from a revision with placement of new, lower profile implants below the muscle, and a revision lift.

Answer: Capsular contracture It sounds and looks like you have developed or are developing a capsular contracture on your firmer, rounder, higher side. You need to be evaluated by a plastic surgeon. I strongly suggest you find a local surgeon so you can be followed long term, Good luck.

Answer: Healing after breast lift/augmentation It takes good year for result of breast surgery like yours to settle. This applies for scar, shape, position of implants. I do not see such a significant asymmetry; you seem to be within average result after such a surgery. Discussion with your surgeon may help to clarify these issues. Good luck.
