Breast lift with implants last July. My right breast never dropped, so my surgeon performed a revision at 7 months post op

Asked By:lunalynn22 in Orlando, Florida

After surgery, he explained that I had "enough scar tissue to call it a grade 3 capsular contracture", so he exchanged the implant from a 385cc to a 340, and told me he did not remove the capsule, but just made "some adjustments." I am now 12 days po and my right breast looks literally the same, except now the bottom is also uneven. My chest feels tight and implant still flexes upward just like before. Will they drop? My surgeon rushes my appointments/questions. Stressed!
