My Ba & Explant Journey - Edina, MN

you look super cute by the way!

At first they were modest..then they started to drop and flop:) One was 350cc and the other 325. They were very heavy!!! Over a pound each. I had to go a little larger because my breasts naturally sit a good distance apart. I wanted cleavage. Who doesn't. Right?

mine are the same size, but i look huge compared to you!

:) Thanks! I was reading your profile and I had to Lol! It sounds way to much like how I was thinking and feeling pre explant. Especially the part about hoping my areola's would shrink. Hoping I could have small ones again. And YEP I DO I DO:) Hehe.

Oh I should have been wearing a DD bra but was in big time denial!

Hi J12, I was wearing a d cup. Now I am still wearing some of my 32c. Not filling out the cup at all!!:) I should go get a B cup!! I do wear a little padding now to give a little more lift and cleavage. Pink{:

Hey pink polish Thx for your reply. Shud i guess two size smaller. I am a double 36DDD / 38DD at the moment so I was hoping would take me down to C. I am a day away from surgery so I am stressed. Wish it goes well

You wil prolly go back to the size you were. I wouldn't worry to much. You will just be so glad when they are out. It is such a relief!! Everyday I go ahhhh!:} Good luck!!! Keep us posted!! P

Thanks pinkpolish. Its so nice to know that you are happy with your results. Thanks for the support. It means so much. I will be getting admitted at this time. I've put on a lot of weight since I had them 10 years ago but ofcourse even if I go two sizes down my current and look smaller, I will be so happy.

My surgery is tomorrow around noon. Its out of town and will return friday night. Can't wait for all this anxiety to get over

You will do fine! Sending hugs! Your going to feel amazing when this is all over:}

Hello racheller, Mine implant were 350cc under the muscle. I did nurse. But pre BA. As for dents, some Drs say rib cages were like that to begin with. Just more noticeable when the breast tissue is thin right after explant. Don't worry to much about that. Can't wait to hear how your doing:}

Hi gillybeans:) I must say I am looking better every day. They do feel very thin and jello like the first few days. I'm not going to lie. It's hard. I cried. The explant was soooo easy! No pain really!! It feels soooo amazing to have them out. No headaches for me. Just lighter. I feel non toxic. Lol. Were you saggy before? If you notice in my pics my creases were lowered. And my breast have lifted since. Now scar shows even more. Oh well. :/ Hope this helps you:0) Keep me posted. My advice would be explant and wait a while. See if you can love the body you were born with:) XX PINk

thank you for your message, ive never been on one of these sites before... its so hard to talk to friends that are either skinny and look fine with small boobies or friends that are well proportioned, They just get it... i think my husband wants me to have them replaced he hast said the actual words!!!!!!!!! but i know him well.... my boobies before having the PIPs were hollow at the top.. but im very thick waisted and out of proportion. that was the reason for the implants in the first place... so will look totally awful im sure... but i want to not have the worry of implants im always getting aches and pains they quite often feel sore around the outside of the implant.... the ones they are iffering free of charge are allergens (my friend had hers rupture) so that is putting me off too... o god why do we do this to ourselves... thank you so so much. x

:{ I'm sorry you have to go thru this still. Ya know, we will always find something about our bodies we will want to change. We really need to love what we have and be greatfull it is all in tact and working as it should. Right? I wouldn't say I'm thick waisted but I don't have any curves, anywhere. So I thought implants would fix what wasn't right in my mind. Nope. It was only temporary. Now that mine are out absolutely no aches or pains. Yay!! My husband has been great. That has made this really easy for me. Does he know how much this is stressing you out? This is a great site! It has helped me a lot!! I'm here if I can help you in any other way. :0}

Ellie, Thank you. I don't feel very beautiful.....yet.:} Every day gets much better!! Explant was last friday. Crazy!!! One minute boobs next minute not so much;} Hee hee

Its very nice of your husband to encourage you for the right reasons. I am in for my surgery tomorrow afternoon, I am definitely nervous now that the time has come. I would be so happy if I go small, as small as possible. I've hated this fake breasts for years bt I was jst too scared to go thru this

Karen221, I should post more info. Thank you for the sweet words!! I bet you will look great too. And will feel even better after!!!!!! I had my saline balloons under the muscle;0) for almost 10 years. No issues what so ever. Just too BIG! My explant was local and I only removed the implant. I was told everything looked clean and clear. No drains either. It was so simple. XX:0}

Byeimplants have you felt better in relation to the autoinmune symptoms? I am scheduled for my explant in 5 weeks and my big concern is will I regain my health... I realize it may be too soon for you to tell but i was just wondering if you dont' mind my asking...

When I saw your pics I was hoping to look as good as you. You look like you have a lot of breast tissue. I think you look great!!
