Dear Thriving453346,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

You may have a capsule on your higher side. I would suggest going back to your surgeon and being examined. Sometimes external ultrasound and Accolate can be helpful to correct this without surgery.
