Will my breast look worse than before after explant? (Photos)

anonymous172
I am considering having an explant of my implants. Personally speaking, I do not think they suit my lifestyle anymore - I'm more active and fit, so I find that these implants are starting to feel uncomfortable. I have had 255c Mentor implants placed under the muscle and have had them for 2-3 years already. I'm currently 23 years old and am quite worried about how they will look. I didn't have much tissue to begin with but I have gained 5kgs since and have started to fill up around my body.
