Is it normal to not have lower pole fullness?

October 15, 2012
Asked By:toots12 in Louisiana

I am 5 1/2 weeks post op from a BA. 475cc silicone under the muscle in one breast and 450cc silicone under the muscle in the other. I am still swollen and they are still high.. My lower pole is not full and all and that worries me. I know it is still early, but is it normal to still be swollen with the lower pole not being full? I was probably a full A to a small be before surgery. i know this takes time, but i over think things and worry so much.
