I am 2.5 post opp and I'm wondering if I should be concerned that my left side is bigger then my right because the bigger implant was put in that side? I got 345cc in the left and 330cc in right under the muscle.

Answer: One breast bigger after breast implants? Although mild breast asymmetry is to be expected short and long term after breast augmentation surgery, if significant asymmetry is present, there is cause for concern. Shortly after surgery, significant breast asymmetry may be a sign of a complication that requires the attention of your plastic surgeon. Generally, exactly what is causing the asymmetry will be best determined by your plastic surgeon, after physical examination. Best to follow up with him/her for accurate assessment, advice, and/or meaningful reassurance. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with long-term.

Answer: One breast bigger after breast implants? Thank you for your question. Without some pictures or an in-person exam, it can be very hard for anyone to offer any sort of opinion regarding your results. When you say "2.5 post op" I assume you mean weeks? If so, you are still very early from surgery and there is still a significant amount of edema that will improve and more healing to take place. You will not be at your final result for likely 3 months or more. Also when considering your implants, there is only 15 ml of difference. To put that into perspective, that is 1 tablespoon, or 1/2 an ounce, so that difference is very small and not likely something that is going to be readily noticeable. Give it time and keep in touch with your surgeon. I think with time you will be pleased with the result. Best of luck!

Answer: One breast bigger after breast implants? Thank you for your question.Without any photos, it is difficult for me to determine exactly why one of your breasts is larger than the other. In general, women commonly experience this for several months after surgery as the breasts are still swollen and have not dropped fully into place. I would recommend giving yourself approximately six months following your surgery before evaluating your final results. At that time, if you are still not pleased with the outcome of your breast augmentation, I would recommend visiting a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine if corrections are neccassary. Best of luck to you!
