I am 15 days post implant removal today and feel amazing!!! I feel almost back to normal, the only reminder are my scars. I have no pain, no swelling, no discomfort. My breasts feel more firm and are my previous shape. I am back on the treadmill and no issues at all. Thank goodness that nightmare is behind me - I am happy :-)

One week post removal yesterday and had my follow up visit. Everything looking great so far - no pain, no evidence of fluid. I am keeping a sports bra, then the tight wrap on at all times and my PS said to do that for a total of three weeks. The muscles still feel odd - like they are loose, but I guess that makes sense as they were stretched and I am probably more aware of them. I go in for final follow up in 8 weeks for scar re-check. Still incredibly happy with my small breasts and glad to have those bags out!

Wow, congratulations! You look great and were very smart and brave to explant as soon as you realized implants were a mistake for you. You should be proud.
Well done, Im glad eveything went well with your follow up : ). its interesting what you say about the muscles feeling odd. Im slim and athletic like you and when I first had my BA the muscles were SOOOOO tight, so I suspect my muscles will feel odd to me aswell after explant X
I am so glad you are feeling good! You look fantastic - I think it is wonderful things are going so well for you. Keep us updated on your progress..26 days to go :)
You look amazing! Really. So good!! I am so happy that everything went well. Isn't it such a relief to be on the other side!! I am finally not obsessing about boobs every waking second!

Today is day 4 after surgery. I am still wearing a sports bra and a tightly wrapped bandage on top. I can feel a little fluid in my chest, just like after initial augmentation. The tissue does feel somewhat swollen but that makes sense as I had surgery and trauma to this area. The breasts are not as firm as prior to augmentation and a little like "jello" as some of the other women have described. I hope they will firm up as tissues contract and swelling subsides. My follow up is on 3/19 and I plan on wrapping myself tight until then. I will have to re-assure my PS that this was really the best decision for me to have implants removed and not wait for revision - he seemed upset that this was my intent and really tried to talk me out of it. My pain is mostly gone and I went back to work yesterday, day 3. In fact, I have to remind myself to take it easy as I feel pretty darn good! No one at work had noticed/said anything. I wore my old bra with foam inserts over my bandage and then a tank top over that and I looked just I did before surgery :-) my husband saw my breasts yesterday and I was so worried as he is terrible with blood/incisions/any sort of medical things... He made me feel so much better because he said they look good and much better than he thought! He said they dont look much different from before and will only improve from here on. I am very happy to have them out and cant wait until I can sleep on my side and stomach again.

BEMESOON: you look amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your story with all of us. So glad you happy, I explant in less than 4 days and I am so excited. I've had mine for 23 years so I am sure my skin will look a bit different. I really have no expectation on how I will look but I do expect to feel better. Again Thank You
Thank you so much! I have honestly been feeling like i am floating around these last few days I am so darn relieved amd happy to be rid of those things. I hated looking at them and feeling them. They were a source of anxiety from day 1. I know your explant is going to go great and you will feel amazing!
