Still happy with my implants. Sometimes I wish I went smaller but I have gained a lot of confidence from having them. They are soft and my fiancé loves them lol. I am probably going to be trying to get pregnant a year from now. Curious to see how breast feeding goes.

Uncomfortable.
Pretty unhappy. I have been having chest pain and shooting pains even after a year post op. Went to the doctor today bc I found a lump in my right breast so now I have a mammogram and ultrasounds scheduled for next Friday. I honestly feel like these have been more of a burden than anything. I don't like he way they feel in my chest and I am starting to worry about my health. Depending on what comes back in my tests, I may consider explant. I am really worried about it because I feel like my boobs will look terrible, but my health and comfort is more important. I wish I would have never done it. Some women love them and do great and some don't. All I know is I'm tired of always being bothered with them.

Sorry to hear about this. I am in Akron too and just now researching doctors. Unfortunately I haven't heard many good stories about this doctor! I hope everything turns out ok for you.

Sorry to hear you are unhappy with your breast :(. I honestly think you look great and your result looks very natural. I'm almost two weeks post op also subglandular implants and I'm hating my breast right now, they feel and look so fake I want to cry :(

7 months post op
I go through times where I feel like I made a mistake and then I have times I love them. Its a love hate relationship at the moment. I love the symmetry and the shape but hate the stretch marks and the fact that I still don't have my feeling back completely. I get chest pains sometimes but I don't know if Its from the implants, probably is. I used bio oil and my stretch marks improved immensely. They are still there but much less noticable. I am trying to learn to love myself and realize my breasts do look good. Sometimes I don't see it but that's my own [RS bleep] I have to deal with. Anyways enough of that. Here are some photos of me 7 months out.

Your result looks extremely natural! I'm hoping to also get subglandular placement.

I think you look amazing. Your breasts look beautiful and natural. I'm sorry you still feel a bit conflicted about them.
I was recently having shooting pains as well at 15 months post op. I went to see my surgeon about it and much to my surprise he said it was nerve pain! Apparently it can take up to 2 years for the nerves to fully heal. It sounds as if you have bigger issues than just the pain though, if you feel like they are a burden then explant may be the right way to go.
I hope everything goes well with your ultrasound and mammogram. Good luck with whatever you choose to do :)
