Very normal to still have bruising at 3 weeks p/o. Were your boobs symmetrical pre-op? x

1 was slightly bigger but just the usual really.
Its hard to see past the bruising I wish it would hurry up and go x

It's normal hun x they should even out in time. It can take up to a year for them to heal fully although they do say aim to see your final result at around the 6 month mark x

Its not at all unusual for one breast to have suffered a little more trauma during surgery hun, hence why the one that didnt suffer as much trauma will heal quicker then the other which will possibly be bigger like you say due to swelling.

It does all even out over time sweetie. Mine took 10 weeks to start evening out and a further two before they looked the same, so you see hun...at 3 weeks post-op, you're VERY early days. If one was slightly larger pre-op this will be the same post-op... Maybe a little more magnified due to the BA.

In saying that... When you have any consultations or check ups by your surgeon or clinic nurse do ALWAYS make sure your concerns are noted lovely. This is very important. Xx

My ps told me that he would e correct anything less than a cup and a half difference. So I do have one slightly bigger than the other - I'd only noticed it when I was breastfeeding, but my boobs since went flat so I'd forgotten. Either way, it's slight but definitely a magnification!

I'm 10 weeks post op and the difference is lessening.

That should read " wouldn't " correct anything..

Sez mine have a size difference too, somedays its more noticeable then others. hope your well otherwise. xx

I have a size difference too but i think mine is to do with having the crease lowered. I think one has been lowered more than the other cos both scars seem to be sat in the crease now x
