Problems with Muscle Deformity After Explant
I thought augmentation is easy thing to have once...
i thought augmentation is easy thing to have once you have money and looks and feels natural. Once i got implants i hated them. everything about them. they do not belong to your body.
you will be always aware of them. whenever you move your muscles or just walk.
i had explant (only after 5weeks having implants) and now 6 months post op. i have a big muscle deformity whenever i use pectoral muscle (even a litte bit) Deformity is mainly looking like a big gap between my breasts. I booked to have my surgery (very costy) to correct it but now got some other opinions about this.Now i do not know what is right.
I would recomment that anyone who ever wants to have augmentation done- will take really lots of time to do research. Pain was worst i ever had in my life. Feeling of a foreign subgect inside of you something which noone ever can discribe you. It does not feel natural inside at all.
Please think what if something will go wrong and you will not want implants.?? after removal your breasts (if you had small ones) will never return to the way they looked before. how would you feel knowing that you might be one of this cases? you never know untill you try.
i would not recommend implants to ANYONE unless it is the only way to feel better about body -image after cancer was removed.
If my thin capsule gonna be removed- will my muscle reattach itselt both to my sternum and under my breasts and deformity will be corrected? or it needs to be corrected by using Alloderm? (can it be done without?) I have now 2opinions which are totally different. Please, help me with answer.

I had 325 cc implants (was an A) that put me at a C. HATED THEM immediately. However, I had no pain, no complications.
But having those things in there--freaked me out. The surgeon removed them 2 months after implant. Bless his heart, he only charged me for teh cost of the surgery room: $700. Bargain.
I can understand mastectomy patients wanting them, but anyone else? NO.
He had also done a lift, and it looks really good. And squishy and natural.
DON'T GET IMPLANTS! They're awful
I was wondering how the explant went? Did you have drains? How long was the procedure? Local or general anastesia? What was the recovery like? Any muscle problems? I am an athlete and i need my muscles to go back to normal.
Thanks in advance and best of luck to everyone!
I had Mentor memory shape. How bout you? I'm so relieved they are out. Wish my PS had listened to me and not make me wait so long. Trust your gut and make him read this post. If that helps. My doc acted like he'd never heard of ANYONE ever having issues. It's a bunch of baloney this whole business. Do what's right for you, we explanters are here for you. You aren't alone. You aren't delusional. You aren't a whimp. And you are going to be ok! Keep me posted!
