Is it normal for the dominant side breast to remain higher and fuller 6 weeks post op?

GymBunny487
I've had my BA about 6 weeks ago & everything is going really well in regards to healing.The only thing thats bothering me is that my right boob seems fuller and a bit higher than the left, its noticable in the surgical bra, the right breast has more clevage than the left.The right breast was naturally the smaller breast pre op. I lift weights & I sometimes feel a little bit of pain in that same right breast post training. It goes away after a day using magnesium pills and massaging with arnica.
