Padding in bomber jacket "rumpled"

Have you ever washed a jacket that has some padding on the inside, and after it came out of the washing machine, the padding becomes unsmooth? is there a way to fix that?

Like a down jacket? Maybe dry it on low or no heat with some tennis balls or wool balls

Havent washed it but I'm assuming it has been washed by the previous owner Heres a pic it feels like there's more padding towards the bottom of the jacket and the sleeve ends. Not as much near the chest, stomach area

Oh I assumed you had washed it yourself based on your question. Seems fine from the pic. If the padding is a single sheet of cotton I don't think there's much you can do besides cutting the jacket open and straightening out the lining.

Could maybe rewash it and flatten it out, then dry it flat
