I had saline implants put in above muscle 27 years...
I had saline implants put in above muscle 27 years ago. What motivated me to remove them is that I have a strong history of breast cancer; mother and sister. I was tired of being told by my radiologist that implants can obscure breast cancer and I would always needed additional X-rays taken.. Recently I was told that an MRI would be needed in conjunction with mammogram to see areas of the breast that are hidden by implants. Long story short breast cancer detection more important than big boobs. I am 57 years old and to be honest I was tired of these heavy firm breasts. I wanted my small boobs back. I must admit I was afraid of what they would look like since I didn't have much breast tissue when I had the augmentation. I was a A cup then. I was sure that my ps would strongly encourage a lift and I was all set to do it if it was recommended. Had my consultation. Ps said lets have the breast tissue heal for a few months to see if I would need a lift appreciated that. He didn't want to go in through the original incision at the aureola . He preferred under the breast for two reasons easier to remove capsule and less damage to nipple. Another fear was how much scar tissue needed to be removed, would this cause the removal of more breast tissue. There wasn't much to spare. It has been one week post op. no tubes little swelling no bruising I was pleasantly surprised that I had more tissue than I thought. Weight gain my my 20's to 50's added more tissue. I had no wrinkling, of course a little sagging. They feel so soft had forgotten how boobs are suppose to feel. I am satisfied with how they look. I am not going do do a lift. I don't want to be cut on any more. I wish I would have done this years ago better yet, experiencing the downsides of implants, ( heavy, firm, encapsulated, painful)I wish that I would have never gotten them. I hated them more than I liked them. My husband never liked the implants, he just disclosed that feeling to me just this week. I wish all you ladies the best in making your decision and your outcome. if they are not perfect it is ok. mine are far from perfect but I am so thankful that I had the courage to do it and no regrets. Sorry don't have pics at this time.
