Can symmastia develop years after procedure and am I at risk? Almost 4 years post op, 350cc (photos)

Bella_209
Before I had the procedure my surgeon said I had pectus excavatum so I would have tight cleavage. I had 350cc high profile placed under the muscle. In September, it will be 4 years. I am worried that as they drop and have settled I am at risk for developing symmastia? Can you develop symmastia this long after surgery? And am I at risk?
