Asked By:Rosevillemamaoftwo in Roseville, CA

I had very little breast tissue going into surgery. I had strong and firm pectoral muscles from lifting weights. Implants are still riding high and are firm. Left is noticebly bigger than right (more so in clothes) and nipples aren't even. Is this a normal result? When will they soften? 400cc round mentor high profile silicone in both.
