After I had my children my boobs got smaller than they were as a teenager . All I wanted was to be able to feel out tops and feel like a woman , I had thought getting implants would make me more confident so I proceeded and got my BA about three months ago, the first two days I was fine and then the depression hit me I don't like the size they are too big for my little frame. I have gave it three months already and I just don't like the size of these 350 on my frame. I called my ps the second day and stressed my concerns about the size and told him I want them out.

I have a appointment on 4/23/13 to see what he has to say about removal I had my BA done axiallary and wish he could remove them this way but mine are silicone and I don't know if that's possible , I'am just worried about how is he going to find my original crease because I know he lowered my crease during the BA to fit these big ole things in me . I can't blame my ps for the size I chose but he didn't help me pick out sizes either , I am just going to try think positive when I think to much about it makes me cry my lord my mother taught me better than this and this is the price I must pay for wanting something god didnt intend me to have.

Everyone keeps telling me to keep them , but there not me and the one that has to walk around with them. I feel like sometimes should I keep them and let my body be stretched out, but in the back of my mind I know I don't want them and I got to be true to myself .

Hi Little Bell, You definitely have to listen to your heart which is exactly what you are doing. As you'll see from many of the stories by women on this site, a lot of us regretted our implants from the moment they were put in. And, many of us have significant health problems because we left them in our bodies for so many years. Only you know your own body and what is best for you, as a woman. I hope the appointment with the PS goes well and you are able to get what you want and need!! We are all here for you and support your decision, whatever it may be.
April 20, 2013
Thanks for your support, I get emotional thinking of all the reason I want these things out. When I go see my ps I will try my best to keep from getting upset because I don't want them saying I need mental help , I have a small knot in my right boob since my BA I had it ultra sounded and a dianostic mamagram already , they said there was nothing showing up but I can still feel it this scares me this is one of my main concerns wanting a removal . I will stick to my grounds when the ps tries to talke out of removal, I'm just scared of what my creases look like since he lowered them I don't want two droopy bags I think this should heal back though . Ya know all these ps try to talk you into keeping them I wish they were stuck with penis implants and see how it mentally affects them haha!!! Just a thought .
April 21, 2013
Be strong! You know what you want and he has to respect that. Did you watch the YouTube video of the saline implants that were black with mold? No man would allow that in his penis, I bet. And yet they put thousands of women at risk every year. Sad indeed...
April 21, 2013
Yes I've watched a lot of ex planting videos . I think I saw that one where the implants was black . I hope my implants are fine . The one I have that little knot in for about a week now has this itchy pain feeling that bothers me constant I hope it's just healing not some kinda CC trying to develope , man I want these things gone before any problems start. I can't wait to see what my ps says Tuesday about removing them I hope he understands me wanting a removal I'am only three months post BA . I'm scared he hasn't done any removals just BAs I will make sure he is confident in removal before I proceed with it . Ladies please tell me does the lowered crease heals where they lower you during the BA after removal.
April 21, 2013
I would think that because you'll be getting them out so soon, your body will quickly return to normal. Looking forward to hearing how things go with your PS on Tuesday!!

Thanks for starting your story! How was your appointment today?

April 23, 2013
Yes, how did it go???
April 23, 2013
It was ok I went to see the ps today for removal but had told him I also have been having this wired none stop itchy tiring feeling on the outer right plus when I lean forward feels like something rubbing behind my nipple I hope this is healing and nothing left behind I would think that would have showed up in my mamagram. On my removal I stressed that the size was my biggest factor for removing them today . He agreed to remove them and told me I would have to get a crease incision because they might break using my axiallary scars that stinks. His nurse told me when I'm ready call about two weeks before to set up my surgery. I ask about my creases healing up because he lowered them and he said when I heal that will return to normal and I would look just like before but with scars. My last day of class is may 2 and my sons graduation is in may too i really want to wait to get this out of the way before I remove them so I can be heathy enough to show up for the graduation and be in the right state of mind to study.
April 24, 2013
Sounds like things will work out well and not too far in the future! My surgery is May 13th--maybe we'll scheduled around the same time.
April 24, 2013
Thank you for thinking about me today. I told my hb I will never look at anything fake again after this . I would love to hear how things turn out for you I was thinking just keep yourself busy so you don't have much time to think and I'm here anytime to talk if you need to . Since I've got these things I thank God for everyday I wake up but I know if I got a problem Gods got a problem and he don't keep his problems long.
April 24, 2013
Thanks so much, LB! I hope we both have smooth recoveries!

Dont feel bad at all. I had my BA March 28 , 2013 and they are coming out April 25, 2013. I totally understand your pain. I have a small body frame. 120 lbs started out as a 34A and had 435cc textured silicone implanted under the muscle and after four weeks they look like giant watermelon to me. Everyone told me that they look fine that its just a shock for someone to go from very small to very large. Right now I am measuring a small 34D. It makes me look top heavy and with all the stress I have gained 5 pounds in a week. It's extremely emotional to feel the way you feel and feel that no one understands you. Just know that we here do because we are all going through the same thing. Don't let anyone talk you into keeping them if you feel in your heart that its not for you. The worst part of it all is how stressful it becomes because at least for me it got to the point where I couldnt focus on anything other than my boobs. I also couldnt stand to look at them or dress them up. I was always trying to hide them under baggy clothes.. I wish you the very best of luck in your journey and if you ever need to talk please dont hesitate to drop a line. We are here for you.. Good luck

Hey let me know how it turns out tomorrow I want to see some your pics so it will prepare me I'm like you I haven't had them long but I'm scared since there so big what I'm going to look like. But you know I've been thinking about it like my pregnancy it's amazing how your tummy goes back hope the breast are the same.

ok i will
April 24, 2013
Yes you do have to be true to yourself. I have quite a few family and friends who strongly believe I should keep them. But, it is not them who has to deal with the implants. Do what your heart tells you, you know it will be the best decision for you. How did your appt go?
April 24, 2013
It went well he told me he would remove them but I would be flat cheasted but I told him I don't care I will wear a push up bra his nurse grinned Ill bet he was thinking stubborn girl, I also told him that I got this irritating feeling in my righty but he said it was healing I hope . Now I know he will do the removal I need to get school over for the semester before I book my surgery his nurse said call about two weeks ahead to set it up. The scars are the only thing that scares me the most .

Hey I was just looking at your site. I'm sorry people are giving u so many negative comments. Some people can't understand you can feel the way you do. I looked at your breast pic n they look fine not that big but the thing that these people don't realize it's that it's not the breast it's that you don't feel comfortable with them. At the end if the day you have to do what is right for you. Whatever you decide we are here for you.

Hello ladies I saw my ps on Tuesday about my removal he agreed to do it if that what I want he said . I ask him about how the crease would heal where he lowered it he said it would go back to where it originally was. I'm still trying to figure out where he will cut me for removal so it don't show in my swimsuit I ask about the nipple and told him that I've seen a lot of puckered in nipple due to removal there. I will be finished with school May 2 and that the day I'm going to call my ps and set up my sergery . I don't think my hb likes the fact I want them out he thinks I should get used to them and he don't think there to big either. He is already booked our vacation in the middle of June so I don't know how I'm do this and be well he is hoping I will change my mind. I'm tired of all this and just want them out . Lord know why did I do this to my beatiful breast there are so many nice push up bras now that a woman don't need a boob job , I've been admiring those cute little bra I used to wear and Victoria secret has the best swimsuit this summer for little breasted women that adds two cup sizes. I can't wait to get these things out so I can buy me one.

mine were texture silicone. The latest style out there. My doctor is Dr Zienowicz, Richard.. He practices in Providence, Rhode island.. The staff is phenomenal and so is he.
April 26, 2013
Hey I called your ps today they suppose to call me later did you use him the first time for your BA . Oh and I'm glad to hear your doing well , hey did they have to make your incisions under your arms longer to remove them. I'am so happy for you that you didn't have to get any scars on your boobs you can just say I had my lymph nodes taking out or to fix something . If he gives me a good price I will be using him if I have to fly to keep scars off my boobs. This gives me hope knowing it can be done .

Oh that's great. I used the same doctor. You can tell him Luz A mention it to you. I don't think I would have wanted to use any other doctor. The staff is great. If you left a message they will call you back but I don't know if they will be able to give you a price prior to looking at them. I can't see my scar because I have a dressing that I can't take off. It will come of next Friday. I will post a pic then. The initial scar was not really visible so he is good lol. I think the office opens at 9:30 n they close for lunch around 12-2pm or so. Can't wait to hear from you

Well finals are tomorrow I will be glad to get this behind me . I get to thinking man If I would have picked just picked a 225 I would be happy with this outcome. I look at other girls that got it right the first time I wish I was them. All my money spent on something to big for me. I feel like I've bought myself something I will never forget depression and scars to remind me of this mistake . My hb told me this is not like something you buy at a store and just take back . I understand and know he is worried about me and the outcome. I tell myself God made me and he will heal me back just like he made me . He give his hardest lessons to his toughest angels . I just wanna call today and say set my sergery up I'm done with school this has been my main hold back . So wish me luck I will making my appointment soon if my ps doesn't change his mind , he said he would do what I wanted but really didnt care to talk about removal I felt . Ladies I hope I'm not making a bad decision but in my heart this size isn't for me. Ya know what too my regular obgyn has been looking out for me too I showed her the knot in my breast after my BA and she sent me to a breast cancer ps right away , she called me just yesterday it's been a month since I've seen her , she is still thinking of me for some reason. It's good to know that someone cares enough to get to the root of the problem and she calls me personally . Maybe she might be able to get these things removed due to health conditions with my insurance lol.
