My Breasts Came out Two Different Sizes After my Breast Reduction. Will They Even Out? (photo)

ct252
I had had my breast reduction done about 3 weeks ago and one of my breasts appears to be about 2-3 sizes larger than the other one. Also, my right breast really sticks out under my armpit which makes it uncomfortable for me to keep my arm down at my side. I went to the doctor a few days ago and they said everything looks fine and to just be patient. I know breasts heal at different rates, but is a difference like this normal?
