Uneven implants - should I be concerned? Can this be fixed?

Question

I had a breast augmentation, dual pane 375cc round implants. I noticed when I was bending over that one looked different and after taking a photo front on I’ve realised that breast looks quite a lot bigger too. IIcan’t get in to see my surgeon until end of September so I just wanted to check if this is something I should be concerned about / can it be fixed? Due to the camera reversing it’s the left breast in the first two photos (front on) and the right in the last (bending over).

Overall you look great! I think a small mastopexy on the right will get you the symmetry you are desiring.

Dear hello1335,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

An examination is needed to see if you have a capsule formation or excess fluid. Please go back to your surgeon. Your medical doctor could order an ultrasound to see if fluid is present.  Please do not ignore this if fluid is present.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

I encourage you to visit with your surgeon for an evaluation for the increased asymmetry.  It can often be addressed with a revision.  If you begin experiencing further changes to the one breast or develop fever, pain, or redness visit with your surgeon or PCP.
