2 weeks post-op, one implant seems to have bottomed out already

March 1, 2017
Asked By:everwood in Ohio, IL

I had surgery 2 weeks ago - 500cc unders. silicone cohesive gel. Doc picked the cc based on pics I brought in. I wanted to be a D, was 32B/C pre-op. I told him I wanted 425cc, but he said not to worry about cc, that was his job. After surgery when they told me I had 500s, I was shocked. My left implant is lower than right, & the scar is riding up onto the lower pole & my nipple is borderline pointing up. Is it possible the 500cc are too big for me? I don't think this should happen so soon.
