Breast Implant Removal Q&A

Two weeks ago I got over the muscle silicone implants, alongside a breast lift. I'm happy with the breast lift but very unhappy with the implants, as it was a decision I made too hastily. How soon after the initial surgery is it possible do so? Thank you.

I want to have my implants out under local but I really need to be on fluoxetine for my panic attacks.

I had an explant and full anchor lift a little over a month and a half ago. My doctor made me look beautiful I am quite pleased. They have softened since the surgery but they are still a bit hard and tight. How long typically in patients does it take for breast tissue to settle and soften? Thanks in advance!

I had my breasts explanted (saline). It's been about 20 days post surgery and I'm feeling some hard lumps inside them. What could they be? My breasts look fine on the outside.

Will wearing a push up bra all the time help my boobs heal back in their original perky state? Can doing light weight chest exercises help lift the breasts?

I had an explant and full anchor mastopexy almost a month ago. I am fine with the size but they are still hard feeling. Will my breasts drop and soften over time? Also will they fill out more? Thanks!

6 months ago I had 20-yr old large implants removed and a lift. I noticed my skin stretching slightly off of my sternum after getting the original implants but since they have been removed, its obviously much. I am a bit surprised that my surgeon didnt address this recently during the X plant and lift. She did mention things like dermal matrixes, or the only way to fix it would be new implants, but seems reluctant to address it. I need a second opinion but not sure where to start.

Age 50, 55 128lbs I had a 20yr history of breast implants 1st set 2002- 400cc saline 2nd set 2008- -600cc silicone dual plane through IMF I had an enbloc explant with lift May 18, 2022 and not happy with my outcome. My surgeon was worried the original surgeon cut my muscle since I had such a tight cleavage but after surgery he said I didnt need muscle repair.I have given myself a full year in hopes My outcome would get better. Why are my breast deformed?

How do I know if I just would need my implants removed versus capsulectomy, enbloc, or capsulotomy? My saline implants are 23 years old so I'm thinking they have had their time. Not sure if my graves, plaque and inverse psoriasis, and constant inflamed red eyes are from my implants or what? I am 56 years old and a fit, active woman. I also have constant tiredness but not sure if thats related to implants or menopause. I certainly am VERY confused on what my next step should be.

My left implant was removed about a week and a half ago (3 weeks after I initially got them) due to infection. There was only 10-15ml of infected fluid in the pocket, and I stopped leaking after a few days. However, two nights ago I somehow wokeup lying completely on my front and since have had what can be described as muscle ache in the area and a lot of leakage. The leakage isn't puss its sort of a dark yellow clear liquid but there is a lot more than before. Should I be concerned? Thanks
