2 years and still uneven - should I take Accolate?

BlackEssence · 06-13-2009, 10:41 AM

Your threads have been very helpful, but my question is this. It's been two years since my breast augmentation, and I'm still lopsided. I am considering a redo, but the new PS I consulted suggested maybe a band or Accolate.

I wanted pretty breasts, and they are, but they don't match. I can't afford a redo now, so I'm stuck.

My scars are also horrible, my c-section scar was not even close to being this bad, considering a revision on that.

Anny suggestions, I wish I could start over!!

Some pics would be nice so we can see the scares to start with and so we can let you know how we view them. A lot of times ppl see themselves way different from how others do.

I'm 2 years post op as well, and my breasts are a little uneven. I thought I was bottoming out, but I think they don't seem to be getting worse or better. I don't know what I am going to do either. I'm considering getting a re-do, but not for a while yet. What is Accolate if you don't mind me asking? You can see my pictures on my profile if you want.

I thought that accolate was for capsular contracture, do you think that's what you've got? Is it the size that's uneven, or is one sitting higher than the other?

post them only in your album. Bottoming out is due to implant weight and I don't think taking anything will help unevenness. Unless you haven't dropped but I don't think that is the case for 2 year old boobies. good luck

One actually sits higher than the other. When I raise my arms, they look exactly the same size, just the right one is still up too high.

Everything I have read about accolate has been about cc (or asthma), but I don't have that. The new PS prescribed it for a few months to see if it would lower the one boobie without surgery.....

Don't quote me on this, but from what I've read, Accolate is most effective when taken earlier on post op.. See what your PS thinks. It's hit or miss, some PS love it, some are a little more skeptical. Have you guys discussed a pocket revision? Good luck..

Yes we have, but he wants to try this first....so cross your boobies...I mean fingers!

I stopped taking the Accolate, a PS told me that he had not heard of it doing ANYTHING for breast augmentation's..the only thing that it was good for was causing liver damage. After that, I flushed the rest of the pills down the drain. Better start saving my money!!!
