Removing my 500cc over the Muscle Silicone Implants

Hi there. I not sure if your concern is that you might have a lot of stretching since you have had them 20 years. I had my explant June 5 and am so glad I did. I had implants for the past 38 years. One set for 10 years and one set for 28 years. My concern was if I would have boobs to my knees. I am very satisfied with my results. It seems most of the ps do not want to do explants. Please research this site. Hopefully you will get the answers you seek. Best of luck to you!

You will get lots of answers here and you are certainly not alone in wanting them out completely. I totally get it that's for sure!

I am in exactly the same boat as you and have even further complications in that one of my countless, we're talking double figures here, revision surgeries left me with an abscess and I had to have my whole right breast dug out with it. I am also now all implant and my surgeon tells me that most of my left breast seems to have disappeared as well. However, one has ruptured and the other is absolutely rock hard and very painful and sitting extremely high, almost up to my collar bone. The usual stories of pain and not being able to hug anyone apply but the main reason is that I just want to go back to nature and feel free and not worry every single damn day about what is going to happen to these monsters next. Implants have never made me happy, they have always given me pain and cause to worry as each set ruptured and capsuled within six weeks of surgery, progressing from hard to rock hard and immoveable within 6 months of surgery each time. Due to the fact that I also have no breast tissue I am having to get my head around the fact that I will be left 'flat like a man' as my surgeon tells me and he's right. The alternative is to spend another 7 thousand to have more revision and then watch them capsule and harden within 6 months just like every other set has done since I first had these damn things. I am going to rock the flat chested look with lots of big frills, ruffles and long necklaces. I'm growing my hair long and I'm gonna do hippy with loose camisoles and no more worry about leaking silicone and lopsided rock hard breasts. I have never had any pleasure out of them and have spent close on £30,000 trying to repair and replace. The flat chested result from removal may not bring me pure happiness but it will bring me peace and remove the fear I've been living with every day of my life since my 20's, I'm now mid 50's. My surgeon tells me that this is not a simple removal since I have no tissue, and they will not spring back or fluff up. He has warned me that I am going to end up with a mastectomy look rather than a small chested look but I don't have anywhere else to turn with this. He would prefer I give implants another go but I need to get off this pointless rollercoaster of time, money, fear, upset, anger and everything else you can imagine.

So, what happened with your surgery, did you go ahead?

I have almost no natural breast tissue either. I ad my first set of implants for 15 years and my current ones for 6. I am scheduled for removal July 30. I have accepted the fact I will be flat, but I'm ok with it. So tired of breasts being rock hard and painful. Beauty is on the inside! Best of luck to you.
