Hi,
It has been a while.... still very happy with my boobs. The fat grafts have been well worth it and I suggest that anyone not happy after the first round, goes back for a second round. My boobs still have a great shape and feel completely natural. Never thought I could have these boobs without implants.

I found pics taken 14 years ago just after I had my implants replaced. My review tells you what happened afterwards, capsular contracture with strange looking boobs, removal and fat grafts. This is how I look today, thanks to Dr van der Westhuizen. For those implant removal ladies out there, I hope my story has helped you

2 years post removal and 1 year post last fat graft
I want to thank all the ladies on this site for their comments and support. Your own stories encouraged me to finally do what I should have done several years ago. My health is good ( other than having just had a rotary cuff muscle repair after a fall from my bicycle ) vague aches and pains that I had for years are gone, and I like my body a lot better now. These are my own boobs, no more silicone for me. Last but not least I must credit Dr Deon van der Westhuizen for guiding me, informing me, his excellent skills and leaving me with a result that I'm happy with. I hope my story will encourage anyone out there sitting on the fence as to whether they should remove their implants that they should do the research, pick the right Dr and there is life after implants!

I must know....how much did all of this cost? We don't have the money for me to have mine removed & I desperately need them out. I'm sure I'd have to have a lil lift & fat graph as well. I'm not being nosey...I just really need to know lol

I'll have to have a look at the bills, but I know it was less than what US doctors eould have charged. My advice is; have them removed by a knowledgable doctor not a cheap one! You have to have the capsules out. If money is tight, do that first and assess after a year. Don't be in a hurry. Make sure you go for the best doctor. Save up for the fat graft and do it later.

Thank you! It has been a long road. Emotionally, because I had to wrap my head around the fact that I would no longer have "boobs" but at the same time wanting to get rid of the horrible implants. Physically because of the surgery. Then it was a matter of having 100% confidence in the doctor and having realistic expectations. I think if you go the route of fat grafting, you won't be disappointed. I can highly recommend my doctor but it would mean flying to SA , It will most likely be cheaper even if you figured in the airfare. , but more disruptive for you. Should you ever consider it, I will be more than happy to assist you, Cape Town is lovely!

Beautiful job detailing your experience. Your how old? I can't believe it.... Truly.... You have the body of someone in their late 20's. Holy sugar, I hope to look like you when all is said and done. It is a hard journey I know and I'm just beginning but like you mentioned it is all natural and hope no more operations to follow. Bless you for taking your time to detail this for all of us realselfers.

Thank you so very much for sharing!!! You have made me feel excitement about my 2nd fat graft on Wednesday. Like you, I am athletic and do not have loads of "fluff," but do have the flanks, and thighs that are going to be liposuctioned. I was worried about being disappointed. I want the volume, and yours turned out so well. Thank you!!!
