Revision for under-dissected pocket or muscle wasn't released enough? (Photos)

leela001
I am over 3 months post opt. and still seeing no lower pole or outer pole. (I realize this could be due to pre-surgery aesthetics). However, do I need a revision if the muscle wasn't released enough? Am I being unrealistic that they could/should look better? (hubby thinks not.) I know some will say I should wait longer. But lets be honest at 3 months we can assume they aren't going to change that much more, correct?I am wearing bands/no bras almost constantly, and doing massages my Dr. suggested
