Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

6 month up date
So, things are still changing. Over all I've felt little if any pain. The last month or so, the incisions in the muscle tissue has been sore/painful..I'm sure it due to internal healing and maybe sutures releasing. so not concerned. I am still very happy I've done this, yet at times I miss version 2.0....they were even, which is not the case with the original equipment..
It's been a week and a day
Over all I still feel really good, just a set back with my gut for whatever reason either being under or the stress of it all takes a toll on my digestive track, as in terrible gut pain for days on end which has been more painful than the explantation. I think I'm over the worst of it. Down another 4.5 pounds. interestingly enough, I still have bloat..ugh. I also think my breasts actually will look better after removal than they did pre-implants, at least they look like breasts. But I'm guessing only time will tell.
Feeling more Human
Able to do more every day. Sleeping up right (head elevated) places pressure on my SI joints and tail bone, so definitely sore after sleeping. But that is nothing new with my AS. The most interesting thing I hope to see in the long run is that my AS (autoimmune) retaliates. Not my reason for explanting ..as I said previously, didn't want to be in my 60's having "elective" surgery. I'm not unhappy/happy about having this done...just resigned. All is well!
