I am feeling really good and have no regrets about having my implants drained. I am probably going to have the shell of the implants removed as there is a poking feeling from the inside... I wonder of it may be where the saline implants were filled. I will discuss this with my PS when I do a follow up.

I am feeling pretty good. It does feel weird to have the empty implants in and there is an area that pokes at me from the inside. I am not sure what it is, but it is on both sides...It might be the area that the implant was originally filled at? I will talk to my PS this week about it and discuss with him if I will always feel it. I am happy with the size and some fullness is coming back. At this point I feel that I may just leave them and not do a lift, smaller implants or even fat grafting... but I may change my mind. If I do decide not to do any other surgery, I will have the implant shells removed... but I will wait at least 6 months for that.

I had my implants deflated yesterday late afternoon. I feel lighter today. My breasts are a bit tender where the tiny incision is, but no need for any medication. I was much more worried than I needed to be.
My breasts look funny and pretty flat, but I know that it will take time to even out a bit more. I look different in a shirt as I look thinner... Now I just need to work out at tighten the rest of me that I had let go fo far too long! ;)

I am so sorry that I haven't responded... I am happy that I have decided to deflate them first as my skin has retracted a bit. I feel a bit of a hard mass the size of a small gumball... It's annoying, but doesn't really hurt at all. Felt totally fine and only marks the size of a needle on each breast. I am wearing sports bras as much as possible now with hopes that it will help with skin retraction. I do wear a normal bra with underwire on occasion... But I still need to purchase some bras in my correct size. You can't see the shell at all! I have posted some more info and pics that you can read/ look at. Good luck!
