feeling so happy i did it.
$3,000
well everyday was a change. i am shocked at how the body has the ability to bounce back... i am not saying i am looking perky and young but my breasts have diffinately changed since the explantation, i really didnt believe they could possibly change but they have and i love sleeping on my stomach and feeling foreign object free. i am wearing a push up bra during the day and at night i wear a sports bra i think that is the route i am going to keep doing. with the push up bra i am amazed that i can really still look the same... yay.... i did it. i was so nervous and upset and i really really want to thank this site for getting me thru this,,, it was so emotionally draining... i look forward to helping someone that was in my same shoes a few short weeks ago.. i feel great and i have been told they look really good... so happy i did it, thanks everybody for being there for me..

the whole thing.. the drooping the size the look , the texture i was freaked, but it has changed in a week already... i am waiting to see what i will be looking like in a few months. anxiously awaiting, thanks so much for writing me.
I do think the creme helps, but I would make sure your doctor thinks it is okay. I went through menopause at 40, so am on hormone replacement anyway. I do like the softer breasts. I could pound on my chest before and it was like tough balloons in there. Not anymore. Give yourself the time you need to adjust. Everyday will get better.
I think you need the compression bras to prevent hematomas from forming. After my three weeks of compression bras, I went to wireless pushups and my same old bras.
Sounds as though you are adjusting beautifully - the whole process is a pretty major blow to a girl's emotions as well as the body. I am 6 wks post op and I have just reached the point that I'm comfortable most of the time. My regular bras are going to fit me also - just won't have flesh poofing out all over the place! For now I'm wearing a Champion Zip Front sports bra all day and change into a soft back hook comfy bra from Walmart's for sleeping. I like the Champion(they run small by the way) because it doesn't rub on my incisions, is easy to put on and take off, yet keeps everything in place. My doctor confused me too when I went for my checkup. I had been faithfully wearing a compression bra and he said " not necessary, I would probably benefit from going braless" huh? Since one was sitting higher the weight might pull that one down. Well, I didn't go that route - my body told me that holding things in place was a smarter way to go; so that's what I'm doing. Think you have to feel your way along, try things - and see what feels right for you. You are much younger than me; you are going to have a great outcome, I'm sure of it!

i had my breast implants removed a week ago now
oh my god,, you guys thank you so much, its true... for some reason they look different... i am so happy.. well not thrilled but so much happier... i went to victoria secret yesterday and they measured me at a 34 D,, how did that happen, i didnt even need the implants geesh.. i am trying to keep moisturized, to have them shrink up if they can, i just read about that post that said the progesterone cream, does that really help? i am so used to the harder breast i have to laugh when i walk i am bouncing all over the place, the push up bra has lifted my spirits i didnt feel so saggy. the doctor had told me to wear a tight sports bra for months now i go back yesterday after a week and he said oh no you shouldnt be wearing that its pullijng you down you should have on a push up bra,,, geesh make up your mind,.. so i dont no to sleep in a bra or sports bra , or wear the pushup bra all the time, im confused but this i know.... i only want to do everything that i can do to make my breast fluff up as much as they can, the one that deflated is actually higher, i think because it had a month of shrinkage compared to the explanted full implant... i hope they catch up... the body is sure a miraculous thing,, thanks to everyone that wrote to me , i was really so upset i couldnt think straight.. i was the long blonde hair big boobed girl that thought she lost all her sexiness, but no,,, im back... and have a different attitude and actually love how natural breasts feel... and i can actually feel my nipples for the first time in 14 years, i have feeling back in them,,, now thats progress for sure... yay...
