15 years ago id not long finished feeding my son and well i has no breast tissue left, i was an A cup at best with lots of saggy skin. I was 20 years old and had breasts of an old lady. I decided to have breast implants 370cc over the muscle which filled the skin, ive had no problems and I've loved them. But as the years have gone on I've started to feel different about my body, i feel really top heavy, i also suffer from extreme tiredness and always feel groggy!. I decided to have them out, not replaced and a lift. I had 3 consultations and thought about it for 6 months before i made my decision, the surgeon has been brilliant, he's listened to everything I've said and supported my decision not to have the implants replaced. Updated on 22 Oct 2017: Im sore and i cant see my girls properly yet because of the dressings but here they are. I've been wearing a b cup sports bra and i feel so light and free. Pain meds are helping me sleep at night. I felt super teary yesterday and today, i believe its the effects of the anesetic. Im fed up as cant drive or lift anything, im no good at resting but this will be worth it in the end! Updated on 4 Nov 2017: Well its been a very emotional rollercoaster. I've come off my pain killers and hit a huge huge low. I've literally cried and cried and cried. Starting to feel a little more normal now but my god i don't want to feel like that again. On the upside, dressings came off on Thursday and it all looks very neat. Cant wait until they heal properly they are very bruised. All going in the right direction thou! Updated on 8 Nov 2017: Wow 3 weeks already!! Back to work next week, i feel so much better than I did last week no longer an emotional wreck! Stitches have dissolved now and my scars are looking really neat! Oh and ladies i went bra shopping, im so happy, they must be fluffing out a bit as i got measured and im a 34c! i love love love all the pretty bras with the thin straps i can now wear! Updated on 23 Jan 2018: I went to see my surgeon and he's not happy with the scar he wants to take more tissue from under my breast. I agree with him.as they do look slightly bottom heavy. Im booked in for 22/3. I have to say, ex planting was the best decision I've ever made i feel so much healthier, I've more energy, headaches and fatigue are no more exercise is wayyyy easier! Heres some more before and after pics. Updated on 4 Feb 2019: Heres a few pictures from the day of surgery, 3 months post op (after second lift) and today almost a year on. For those of you thinking of ex planting i can honestly say its the best decision I've made, i feel lighter, healthier and happier than I've ever been. :)
