Keeping Pockets Open After Breast Implants Revision?

imadvice
I recently had a bottomed out breast implant revision where my surgeon also cut a larger pocket superiorly. I have been trying to push the implant upwards in an attempt to keep the pocket open, however, it still does not go up as far as the other side (the good side). I am 3 1/2 weeks post-op. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Also, everytime after the displacement practice, my breast feels warmer. Is that normal?
