Just Had my Sub Pectoral Silicone Implants Removed - Upstate NY

Well after nine years of my implants, I decided they needed to come out. I must admit I had been thinking it for some time. I developed a contracture to the left breast. Once I made the decision to have them out I couldn't have the procedure quick enough.

I am in significant pain right now and have drains. I'm supposed to go back to work in two days but the degree of pain right now is so bad. I wonder how so many of you have posted that it did 't hurt. I also am really scared with how I am going to look. I was a full 34 a / small b prior to the implants. The surgery put me to a 34 c. Three children later all who were breast fed and before removal I was a 36D. I'm really nervous and really sore. I hope this gets better soon....

Well the pain is a little less. I think the drainage tubes are responsible for a great deal of the discomfort. I'm a bit nervous though because my right breast is much smaller than the left breast at this time. I am hoping that they both fill out a little. I think I will feel more human once the drains come out. I am somewhat sad though.... Not for the loss of the silicone but the size discrepancy to me is bothersome...I expected them to be the size of my left breast or maybe a bit bigger. I feel like my right is almost an entire cup size less. I know only time will tell but I'm nervous....

Today the drains came out. Hopefully I will not get a Seroma . I have to work this week and wish that were not the case. Hopefully this week will fly by. I see my ps again next Monday. I must say he has been great.
