PIP Implant Removal After 7 Years & Can't Wait - Nr Glasgow, UK
I am 37 and had had breast implants put in after...
I am 37 and had had breast implants put in after having my 2 sons at the age of 30. They were 325cc. I was originally a 34B and after having the implants in and a third child with them in (plus a few unwanted pounds) I am now a 36DD!!!
At the time of having them I was low and insecure about myself and my small chest (my ex hubby liked big breasts and mines were not big), I am now with someone who loves me for the woman I am and I no longer need acceptance and approval of others as I am happy with my body good or bad and no longer need or want them!
My 34B breasts were slightly droopy and empty after 2 pregnancies (no breast feeding). I am no longer that same person and I am desperate to have my smaller boobs back, droopy or not! My partner of 3 years is amazingly supportive and wants me to be happy and healthy. I am only 5ft4 and a size 10/12. My surgery is in July. I can't wait to be smaller and back to myself and wear the smaller tops without worrying about my large chest!
I am hoping mines fluff up after the implant removal as they are rather droopy with the implants, Fingers crossed for me and I wish all my fellow implant removers luck and much fluffiness lol xx
ps I will post photos pre-op and post op xxxx

Just had a call to book me in for my pre-op health...
And my actual operation for the implant removal is the 17 July 2012.
I am so happy I could burst. I can't wait to have these big hard rocks out! I don't care how droopy they look as I am totally prepared for the whole golf ball in a sock look!!!!!! Gulp!!!!
Thank you to all the woman on here who have also made this hard choice. We are all going through the same and I truely feel a bond on here that you wouldn't get chatting with non implanted friends xxxxx

I've been reading your story with interest, very similar to my situation. I was insecure, am in a different place now, same size/shape etc although I've been happy with my implants until I found one had ruptured! Decided to go for explant for various reasons, money, future surgery, future health etc but am still nervous about end result. My pre-op is 25th July and explant on 30th July. You sound very positive, I need to keep positive, keep us posted of your progress. Good luck for 1st July. X
I was also worried about the rupturing and had a wee reality talk with myself 'Do I really want to have surgery every 10 years?' The money thing also made me realise that I could be spending it on holidays rather than boobs! ..........So I feel where you are coming from.
Deep down I am terrified and totally panicking they will look awful but I am constantly on this site looking at before and after pics to reassure myself I am doing the right thing.
I really don't want to put myself under anaesthetic unnecessarily in the future. I have decided not to have a lift for know and give my boobs a year to 'fluff' up.
Good luck and stay intouch [RS bleep]
Have been thinking about you. Is it Monday you have your pre-op! How are you feeling? X
Glad all went well yesterday. I will still be on holiday on 17th but wish you all the best and will be thinking about you. Looking forward to hearing how you get on. Keep in touch. X
Thank you for starting your story here on RealSelf! Is your doctor rating for the surgeon who place your implants, who the one who is removing your implants?
