6 mths PO - what can be done for uneven cleavage after bilateral submuscular breast aug & donut lift? (Photos)

E

One breast was smaller & had minimal lower pole volume. PS mentioned they didnt want to lower the fold much due to risk of bottoming out. I'm happy with the fullness, but it seems like we shouldve lowered that breast fold, as one breast is has more volume at top. What can be done? Is it possible to lower the fold of the higher, smaller breast w/o redoing the whole operation? Will lowering it cause bottoming out? Attached before/after pic from 3-mth followup + my own pics taken recently.

The best way to determine what you need and want is a consultation where we can examine you. However, from the pictures, I can tell that your desired size is achievable with larger implants. Good luck.
