Angel77 Posted July 5, 2023 Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 I'm 6.5 weeks post BA and can see one breast is larger than the other. I had a hematoma removed 5.5 weeks ago in the right breast and that is the one that is smaller. It's quite noticible, though I haven't had a bra fitting so not sure if it will be a different cup size, I really hope not!Anyone else have one side smaller at this time and did it even out? I'm seeing my surgeon on Thursday so will ask her about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win Posted July 5, 2023 Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 I had a hematoma removed one week post op & that breast is also smaller (my left) I'm 9 weeks now & it has got a lot better but my hubby mentioned it last night saying it was still sitting higher and looked smaller. I'm going to my PS today be interesting to see what he says..hopefully it's just a matter of catching up for us both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel77 Posted July 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 Can you tell me what he says? Mine did mention a while back that there is probably a bit of bleeding in the non hematoma breast (I was on blood thinners prior to surgery) but it wasn't serious. Am hoping that may be the case and my body will eventually just absorb it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win Posted July 6, 2023 Report Share Posted July 6, 2023 Would you still want to know even if it want the best news??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel77 Posted July 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Yes! Definitely, what did he say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 I was just so hoping he would say that it just needed time to catch up!! Didn't want to be a downer & worry you when you're probably fine!! He said that it feels like the beginning stages of capsular contracture in that breast, which I had a higher chance of with the hematoma Gotta see him again in a few weeks & try & massage the implant down to see if I can loosen it a bit to get it to drop a bit more. So Im hoping that it just stays at this stage and doesn't get worse I was a terrible patient & don't want another surgery for a looong time lol (unless of course i can go bigger hahaha)Let me know how you get on with her on Thursday?? I have everything crossed for you but I know it will be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
