Hello- I underwent a breast augmentation in April 2024. I have noticed what I believed was bottoming out in my right breast. I was assured that asymmetry is normal, but the bottom pole seems to have a half an inch difference. The right implant is also more mobile and (to me) sits oddly, creating a flat shape on the outside. I have attached photos of my pre op, 7 months post op, and today 14 months post op. Would someone be able to confirm or assuage my observations? Would I be a candidate for breast implant revision on the right side?
