4weeks and 2 days post op - this sports bra gives me cleavage lol
Hi ladies, just posted a pic of a bhs sports bra I bought before explant , was too tight straight after surgery but fits really neatly now and do I see some cleavage on it ? Lol it's a 34B and only cost me £8 from bhs on line and it's really comfortable !

Oophs just realised it was Asda I got it from ! Will need to change that in my update lol! Yeah , don't worry mine was uncomfortably tight initially , after explant , tried it on again today , still tight but comfortable and gives my small boobs a bit of a lift and cleavage ! :) I'm sure you'll fit into yours soon hun, you will still have swelling from the surgery xxxx

4 weeks and one day post op ! How time flys when life seems great without plastic :)
Well hello ladies !
First of all sending healing love and prayers to you all , the one's that have done it ! Got them horrid things out hope you are loving the journey as much as I am , never been in such a complete place , where I feel I finally own my body , it's back to where it always belonged ! My breasts not what society fools women to believe that we need to adhere to the superficial society we live in , which makes us women believe that we are inadequate , ugly unless we conform to a society that controls women to be the way it wants it to be . I hope that myself and all the ladies on this are an inspiration to those that haven't quite decided wether to go for explant , please don't hesitate , time waits for no one , the reality is we only have today , the past is gone , the present is a 'gift' and the future is uncertain. Please do have a look at my before explant and after explant pics , and how I have progressed , I wish I had a photo of before I had implants , I was virtually flat chested , and have I been pleasantly surprised that I actually have breasts after explant , hence if any of you ladies that were flat like me before implant and are worried that you may have nothing after explant , you may be pleasantly surprised ! I truly was !
So how do I feel 4 weeks one day post explant ? Well I feel absolutely amazing , I'm at a stage where I don't even feel I had surgery , looking at my pics I honestly can't see anything to suggest i had surgery , I'm healing superbly Xxxx all gratitude to the ONE above and all the prayers my way and the expertise of a great surgeon. I've been back at work 2 weeks post op , working now crazy hrs , sometimes up to 48 hrs !
But I feel great , healing great and biggest thing I've noticed is that I'm able to stretch much far out with my arms for things below and above etc and also lifting now about 3 to 4 bags of lift shopping .
My scars are below the breasts and barely visible , look clean and neat , just a horizontal line , right one seems more visible, perhaps because there was more capsular contraction there and perhaps the surgeon worked on it more during surgery. I will call and ask my nurse when I can start applying anything to the scars to help them fade , any ideas ? Not sure if 4 weeks is too early to apply something to the scars . I continue with the aloe Vera gel , going it will tighten my breast tissue , they feel super soft and while they are obviously not going to be holding up firm at this stage , I will be patient and keep massaging ever day and applying aloe Vera .
I'm on a challenge to achieve the natural lift through natural healing and measure's , I think considering I've not had a lift , I can't complain about the result , I'm very grateful for what I have even if they are little petite breasts and super soft and a bit droopy !
They are me and i am learning to love me xxxx :) under no circumstances will I be opting for any more surgery , any lift , I feel empowered that my breasts are all natural , and that's a great feeling ! So please ladies be confident , love yourself and believe in yourself , it will happen !
Xxxxx hope my update pics inspire you xxxx soft and natural hugs always xxxxx

Hi tiggerousity , thank and I think you look great !
Enjoyed reading your posts there , and you are small breasted like me , I have actually come to the realisation that small is beautiful ! Please don't think otherwise you look amazing in your pics , and I'm not just saying that , I think there is something very elegant sophisticated and 'cute' ! as you say about small breasts !
Don't you think clothes sit better ? I hated my implants , I only wanted a little bit of breast tissue and felt they ended up too big , I hated that '[RS bleep] star look ' !
So so glad that I am small and cute and sexy lol
There is nothing so beautiful as a women who is confident with herself ! So embrace the real you ! You look absolutely stunning cute pretty ! Xxxxxx
I love your quirky posts and thanks for your info on bra's for small breasts! And the pics ! Really does boost my confidence and make me feel good xxxxx hope you have had no further problems with fluid. Do Keep me posted with any websites for small breasts , I was a 34b after explant , and some of the sports bra'a were too tight but I think that was possibly because of the swelling , like you I'm also shrinking and my skin feels so soft and droopy but I don't care , I love this to hard implants any day! Don't you think the soft feeling of them is amazing !
I think I'll end up a 34A, though at 4 weeks over just now I'm fitting into 34b sports bra, which aren't as tight as they were initially after explant. I only have 2 impact sports bra's , 2 medium sports bra'a , I go between them , I've held out buying normal pretty bra'a until later ... I think , they will change shape and size as time goes on , I'm going to stay in the sports bra'a day and night , as I feel they really push and lift my breasts , and as the new tissue is still forming , and healing , I'm hoping the tightness and lifting effect of sports bra'a will help to lift and shape my breasts while I have new tissue formation and healing.. Well that's the idea , my thoughts , wether it will work ... Who knows .. But I hope so ! Xx :)

You are so inspiring! You look beautiful! If I thought I could have results as good as yours I would not get a lift at explant. Your a few years younger than I am and my before pics show sagging:( I'm going to need it. But you don't at all! Your perfect and your scars are minimal, some of the best results I've seen. Thank you so much for sharing your story! God is so good! I'm so happy for you:)

Hi ForeverHis1 ! Thank you for your kind remarks !
I bet you are getting so excited with your upcoming surgery ! Not long now !
I can convince you , you will not regret this , you will feel like a mountain of your shoulder ! Light and free !
Yes I have been fortunate that I have had no problems with healing all praise to the ', 'One' !
I'm not perfect by any means though , there is no such thing as perfect boobs or perfect anything , just the illusion we create ! It's simply learning to love our selves for who we are and not what society dictates. Like me you are also small , and you know the amazing and ironic thing is it took my explant to realise just how beautiful small breasts are! I'm no longer insecure , believe me you are going to feel light and free , and you will love the way clothes fit so elegantly and sophisticated on petite breasts , I'm really excited for you and I know it's going to be a journey you will never regret , this is a great site , don't know what I'd do without all the support! You are going to do great !! :) xxxxx you will soon have soft hugs xxxx :) and that is a amazing feeling !

Hi Sibaxter! Thank you so much! I'm feeling great but some days I'm shattered but it's probably because I'm working too many hrs lol
How are you ?? Are you excited with your post op appointment coming up with your surgeon ?
Make sure to write down all the questions you need to ask , I have them in my head then I forget to ask everything ! So I now write them down ! Yes the incisions have healed well , which is one less worry , I do though get the odd ache and twitch , but certainly feel like I want to do more , the other day I was at work and I was rushing , I started running lol then I had to stop myself !!
I'm getting use to the new small me ! Love my natural small breasts! I guess I've just come to appreciate what I have , and more so 'being grateful for what I have and also being grateful for what I don't have ' I think we are all made the way we are , for a reason , we are all meant to be unique! Xxxx

Hi su23... Yes I like you think of all these things I want to ask and forget when I get there so yes am gonna write a list lol... I too get tired am sure it's the healing process tend to do stuff then a wave of tiredness comes over me so I relax for a bit to recoup ... Luckily I am
Not back at work like you ... I have been in and done a few bits but I run a bar so it's lots of heaving lifting and physical work so my hubby has been doing the work ( we normally work together )
Funny you should mention running I did the same a few days back I ran up stairs and thought afterwards ...!ouchy ;0) my glue is starting ... Finally to come away from my incisions so they look pretty neat considering ... Anyway so glad you are doing ok... Don't overdo it Hun ...sending love and hugs [RS bleep]

Hi hun ! Glad you're doing ok!
I think it's wise to avoid your work if it involves heavy lifting , your breasts come first lol :) I bet we have all done the running thing lol
The thing is there are a lot of things we do without thinking about it , we become conditioning , almost like a reflex , like you because I'm feeling better I'm doing things then I think Oophs I shouldn't have !
But you have a lovely lazy Sunday ! I've been chilling all day on the sofa today ! Got up midday ! Must have needed it ! Was working 12hrs yesterday ! But it's not heavy work, just mainly in the phones and computer !
My period came late this month , must be due to my op possibly ?
I'm going to continue chilling on the sofa and watch some good movies :) xxxxx
Enjoy your day , keep me posted xxxxx soft soft hugs :))) xxxxx

Don't let them take your ovaries! Your body changes drastically without ovaries and synthetic hormones don't work like the body naturally does. I know, my muscle tone changed quickly and drastically after my hysterectomy.

Hi foreverhis1 .....my consultant has said he is leaving my ovaries in as they are ok xx

May 5, 2014
Good deal! I had a tubal pregnancy many years ago and as a result lost that tube and ovary, then a few years later had to have a hysterectomy for very similar reasons as you. After that I ended up with a massive growth on my one ovary and had to have it removed and that's when my body really started to change. I'm glad they are leaving yours. Another thing I didn't realize was when you have a hysterectomy they remove the cervix as well. I had no idea, I was just so young. I don't think it's a big deal, I just didn't know. I'm not sure they do that in all cases, but they did in mine.

May 5, 2014
Bless you sounds like you have been through the mill ... I didn't know about the cervix being removed either... Will ask my consultant when I go in .... Will just be glad to get it over with been suffering for years now... And glad I got my implants out first ;0) xx

Well said! I hope women considering implants read your review. You look fantastic! I feel the same way about my small breasts now.

May 4, 2014
Thank you ! I loved reading your review , totally agree with your point how women's breasts have been sexualised in society. Like you I was flat and just wanted a little breast tissue to look more feminine , but turned our bigger than expected and as the years went on just hated them , they hardened got bigger and hate that [RS bleep] star shape look !
You must be about 3 months in I think ... Can you still get fluid build up, I would have thought it was earlier on if it's going to happen , and normally there is more chance if your capsules are taken out ... Because of the gap left by removing capsules.. But I guess we are all different , my 2 are also quite different , right one which had got far bigger and harder than left with implants , I would say is more droopy and more tissue .. But then on saying that both my breasts were quite different pre implant too, my left was on only 34AA and right small 34A.. You could try Aloe Vera gel for firming , may help your right droopy one , I use it every day with massage , it's early days , you look fantastic ! So don't worry xxxxx soft hugs xxxx :)
