I had my breast augmentation 1 year ago today. i have subfascial 350cc in the left and 325cc in the right. my right i believe has CC as it is very hard and significantly smaller and higher than the left. My doctor advised it was my asymmetry but this is very extreme. i am having to tape the left boob up in almost anything i wear to hide the lopsidedness of my boobs. Getting this surgery was for confidence but i’m not happy.l love the left but the right something is very wrong. looking for suggestion

Answer: CC If you are experiencing significant asymmetry and suspect that you may have capsular contracture (CC) in your right breast, it is important to follow up with your plastic surgeon for a thorough evaluation. Capsular contracture is a complication that can occur after breast augmentation surgery and is characterized by the hardening and tightening of the scar tissue capsule around the implant (it looks like it’s the case here). Your surgeon may recommend imaging tests, such as an MRI or ultrasound, to confirm the presence of capsular contracture or any other issues that may be causing your breast asymmetry. If capsular contracture is confirmed, your surgeon may recommend revision surgery to remove the scar tissue and possibly replace the implant. It is important to communicate your concerns and goals with your surgeon and work together to develop a treatment plan that addresses your individual needs and concerns. I hope this helps, best of luck !

Answer: Breasts You appear to have a capsule. I would suggest going back to your surgeon and discussing this. You could try external ultrasound treatments and oral Accolate, or surgery to open and release the capsule with implant exchange.
