I recently 4 weeks ago had revision. I had a breast uplift with implants last year but the nipples were not symmetrical and my surgeon agreed to a revision to make them equal. However I can’t see a difference at all, can I have some guidance as to how to proceed? I want to know your opinions on whether you think the breast will drop into place to be symmetrical. I’m so down about it all so far costing me £10,500 for something I am not happy with at all. Please help!

Answer: Breast lift revision Dear Funny710028, I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a breast surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process at 4 weeks post op.You will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides you will be able to see the final result of your breast surgery.

Answer: Breast lift revision to lift nipple It is clear that there is still some asymmetry of your nipple positions, but it would be premature to reoperate so soon after your surgery. Your breasts will continue to change as they heal and mature and it would be difficult to determine the best route of treatment at this early date. I would suggest waiting at least 3 months and 6 months, if possible, to allow for the most accurate planning of additional surgery.

Answer: Give it time Your implants will most likely not drop anymore since your breast augmentation/lift was last year. However, you may still be recovering from the revision if it was only 4 weeks ago. Give it a couple months to see if there is an improvement, as swelling may be affecting your results at this time.
