Hi Everyone,
I hope you all are well.
I completed 6 weeks yesterday and had my post 6 weeks check up with the nurse. Everything so good so far and Im now allowed to go back to my routine life. As long as I dont overdo my breasts or scars Im ok to wear underwired, do active sports at gym, run or sleep on my belly!
Back to normal now. My breasts feel and look much much better now. Ill see if I can post a new pic. All I'll say is Im happy with my journey, it happened too fast and time flew like anything. I am enjoying life and the clothes I wear to maximum now.
All the best to all the brave women on here. Keep posting n healing.

It's the 23rd of since my explant and im a little upset on myself! : (
On my one week post appointment when I went to see the nurse to take off my mad ithcy plasters, she trimmed off the ends of the strings used to stitch me up that were sticking out. When I came home I saw that it wasnt trimmed too close and there was still some sticking out. I called the clinic and was told that bcos they are dissolvable that end will snap off as it gets dissolved.
I waited, untill yesterday when i noticed every other area nicely healing and drying but the area that had this sticking string wasnt closely healing and that string had started giving me a sharp discomforting feeling when I touched it or my bra touched it.
I called the clinic again, and the nurse said it was just fine to snap it with scissors if it hasnt fallen off yet.
Last night the pain was quite feelable and discomforting. I got a little brave and got a scissors today morning, as I was cutting it, I dont kow how but I think I must have sligthly pulled that string from inside while the scissors was chewing the string in attempt to cut it!
Now the pain has got worse and hurts no matter what I do. Im upset on my own skills : (
I could have never been a doctor!!
Has anyone gone through that string pain apart from my failed skills?

Hi golden, sorry you are having problems with your dissolvable stitches. I think the nurse has pammed you of a bit and if pain then they should check it's not infected. Is it hot as well as sore? It should be sterile scissors you cut with also. I hope you get better soon. Xx
March 16, 2012
Hi Suzie,
No its not infected, nothing oozing out of it , its completely dry, not hot or sore, the scissors was chewing on that string hence it pulled a tiny bit from inside.

I had the same problem when I got my implants in and I ended up just ripping it out, big mistake it hurt for a while after that! If I were you I would go back to the doctor and have them look at it! But other then that I hope everything else is going well for you!
March 16, 2012
Ouch! U actually ripped it? That must have hurt for days??
I phoned the clinic and the nurse is back on mon now, so got to wait.

Hey golden, you sound fed up. hmmm I think you could do with seeing the nurse again, If its really sore I would give them a call and ask their advise. I have a little bit of stitch poking out on my left scar, but its not giving me any trouble, I would think ur a long way along to be having this trouble so get on the phone ! good luck and dont let them fob you off, hope your feeling better soon , keep smiling :0) x

Hi Gypsy,
Its not too sore sore, but when I left my hand up then a sharp pain is felt where I had snipped the string off!
It didnt give me any problem while the string was sticking out, but only when I had to cut it today and cudnt do it properly is when it all started. Hope u r doing good?

Golden, just read your update. What are we like?
I know exactly what you are talking about. I too have a similar feeling. On my left breast, right at the end, there is a little, really sensitive, it looks like a little bubble on the end and when I push it it sends a sharp pain. Like you said, nothing that you can't handle.
I too just put it down to the stitches at the end of the scar and it would eventually go. It seems to be healing slower than the rest of the scar.
Hope it gets better soon lovely lady x

Hey babe, yeah fluid ok(I think) cords still there, just goint to take time hunny. Least it's not serious eh? x

Hi golden. I would perhaps get back to the clinic, or to your GP. I had the same thing, the hospital didn't trim one of the end all the way as it had become stuck in the tape glue and they didn't see it. It started to irritate my skin, and the GP nurse pulled it out. The internal stitches hadn't dissolved so she pulled out a string about 3 inches long. It didn't hurt, just felt a bit weird. I would get it checked out for sure if I were you though, just to be on the safe side.
March 16, 2012
hi backtonormal,
I called the clinic today and have scheduled an appointment on for mon.
Since your internal stitches hadnt dissolved and yur nurse pulled a 3 inch out then did it not open up internally or give u any compilcations?
I hope apart from discomfort etc its not something to worry about?

Hi everyone, hope all of you are doing well.
Its the 14th day today and it couldnt be getting better, im feeling so good about the whole thing, pain almost gone! not even on my scars.
I have been cleansing and toning them with quality and expensive products. I scrubed them today with a face scrub incl the scars, they reacted well. I use aztec indian healing clay on them once a week and moisturize them with hyluronic serum and palmers bust friming cream twice a day. I also give them ice treatment for 15 mins each daily.
I religiously do the above and make a point to softly massage them twice a day.
I want to start light breast exercise from tomorrow.
They look visibly well lifted to my eyes compared to the 1st day. I m still a cup size 'c'
I just cant wait to sleep on my belly now, which is something im looking forward.
Hope all of you are healing well. keep updating pls.

You look much better post explant. You just look like a natural woman. We went through the same experience and I feel the same way as you. I think we were lucky that we did not have problems to begin with and that our explants went smoothly. I don't think it was even worth it to have implants. The only good part is that I got to know what it feels like to have bigger boobs. But there are many possible complications and a lifetime of surgeries does not sound like fun.
March 12, 2012
I agree starrymidnightsky74,
Too many complications with implants, but as u said we got to know what bigger boobs felt.
Keep healing.

I see you used hyaluronic acid! I have read a lot up on it and I was thinking of starting to take it in pill form and use the lotion as well. Did you find that it helped plump up the tissue or any other positive effects?
March 15, 2012
hi p.sanchez512
I am using hyaluronic serum twice, daily, but im also doing the other thinga i mentioned in my update. I for sure do see a lot of difference.
Im a therapist who offers non surgical face lift and i use this on my clients + vit c, vit e, colagen etc.
Im using all that on my boobs and i do feel and see the difference.

I agree with what u say, it is liberating to be implant free.
They feel and look more better and natural daily. How r u keeping?
sirena
I understand every single word u wrote, i guess many of us have actually gone thru the same thing u did.
Im glad u r happy to be implant free, we cus write novels on the positive side of being implants free.
As u can see how bad my implants boobs looked in comparision to explant, I was a A-B before implants and then went DD after and am now a C. They look good and feel good too. I'll suggest all those who want to go for implants to re think after reading our reviews.
lol....Im glad someone out there agreed that they looked like melons!!
Thanks for your compliment, I do agree they look much better after explant, and yes they didnt just look hard n tight as melons but felt hard....probably put rocks out of business!
How r u keeping?
