The main reason I got implants was to correct the asymmetry of my breasts. I felt like they were very uneven and it made me self conscious.
I am now 3 weeks post-op and my breasts still do not look even to me, just bigger. During my 1 week post-op appt, my doctor was surprised that I wasn't pleased and said they look pretty even. I would like someone else's opinion.

I think that your left breast is still larger, but I agree with the previous comment that if it is only three weeks post op, I would wait another month or so to see what's going to happen with the swelling. I think your breasts look pretty large right now for your frame, but I assume that they are still swollen as well. Good luck! I hope you end up happy with the results.

I think you look great; I agree with the previous comments.

Yes if you look REALLY, REALLY closely the left is slightly different. I agree with several other recent comments - you look great.

did your doctor put the same amount of CCs in both breasts? if so, they final result will probably be close to what you see now. i cant stand when i hear about doctors who clearly see that breasts are uneven, yet they dont balance them with different bags. its like they dont care, they just wana make their money...

According to my implant card, I received 300 cc in the Rt & 225 in the Lt. These are the size implants I tried on because they seemed to even out my breasts. I am just concerned because my doctor thinks they look even. He didn't even say they may seem uneven due to swelling or anything. My one month post-op is 9/17 so I wanted as many opinions as possible. I want to be sure they look like different sizes and it's not just in my head. Thanks everyone!

dr. should have compensated for baseline unevenness with less CC in one AND more cc in the other.

I hate to say it Hun but that Dr. I'd say is wrong! Your left is bigger. It is not suttle. Would not recommend him to anyone.

what do they look like now. Have you noticed any changes in the size of the larger one?

I went to Dr Geoffrey Leber and mine are the same. Its not as noticeable as yours, however, I went in for a 2nd surgery and my doctor talked me out of a larger implant in the smaller one.(Ive given him almost $9k and they still look terrible. He talked me into High Profile which are HORRID. I am very upset. Im sorry. I know how you are feeling. I cant even find a bra to wear. I wear nursing bras. Every other bra makes them more noticeable.
I high recommend going to Dr Shaw or Borsand. I went to www.bevhillsdoc.com and I am NOT happy.

I retract my previous review. I was out of line and I wrote this review when I was upset. Dr Leber has since worked with me on correcting my issue (the issue is with my body, not his work)
He is a fabulous Doctor. He cares about YOU personally. His work is OUTSTANDING. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Leber and I apologize for making this review without allowing time for my 2nd surgery to settle.
I am 100% satisfied with Dr Leber.

I haven't been on my page in forever so I just wanted to give a quick update/re-cap. In Aug. 2009, I had my initial breast augmentation with 300 cc in the right breast and 225 in the left breast. When I woke up from surgery, I could immediately tell that my breasts were still uneven and I told this to the nurse. Everyone brushed off my comment because I was just waking up. When I returned for my post-op appts, Dr. Taki seemed completely surprised that I thought my breasts were still uneven. I wish I had videotaped the surgery because I truly think he put the same cc's in both implants. My breasts looked just as uneven as before, only larger. In Dec. 2009, I returned to Dr. Taki to correct my right breast implant, which now has 380 cc's. It's now Aug. 2011 and I feel like my breasts are the same size but they aren't even. My right breast is slightly higher and more firm on top. With a push-up bra (34D), my breasts look nice. Without a bra, they look uneven because of the higher implant. Dr. Taki NEVER discussed the possibility of multiple surgeries and charged me for the 2nd surgery to correct his 80 cc mistake. I do not trust him and would not recommend him to anyone.

After my 3rd surgery, my breasts are still uneven. My left breast sticks out farther than my right. I even had him put in new implants with my third surgery hoping it would make it less noticeable. I am still having issues finding a bra, as all bra's I have tried make the asymmetry more noticeable. I hear from 80% of females they have an asymmetry issue as well. You don't go in with perfect breasts, you can't expect to come out with perfect breasts. These doctors can only do so much. I am very appreciate and thankful for everything he has done to help me. Dr Leber is a great doctor and I HIGHLY recommend him for breast augmentation.
However, If I could go back, I would have not had augmentation done, but, again... Dr Leber was supportive and great through the process.

In my opinion, the left one (your left, my right) looks bigger both pre- and post-op. But, since it's only been 3 weeks, swelling could be the reason they seem uneven. Here are two related Q&As about post-augmentation swelling that might help (both were also 3 weeks post-op when they asked their questions):
Uneven breasts from breast augmentation edema?
Fixing uneven breasts after breast augmentation?
Best of luck with your recovery!
