Confidence; the new standard...
WORTH IT$5,525
Thank you Thomaschat for you comments... You are 100% correct! I was forced into changing my body to meet some else's wishes and standard. I ignored my self and it took years for me to realize I was beautiful.
None the less, now I am myself and I am full of confidence. So confident I raised myself to be the be only female in my industry and I help to lead a multi billion dollar organization. At the same time I had enough strength to start my own company and I also made my real estate investments profitable. All after being abandoned as a single mother and with a body that was not me.
Being myself has give me not only confidence, strength and new perspective in life. I hope I can be of some help to other women who have gone through this. They too can reverse the damage done and can reinvent themselves into a crown jewel just as I have.

Almost 1 yr and 2 mo after surgery! : )
The tenderness went away, healed completely... No issues what so ever and I fit very comfortably in 36 B's. I wear T-shirts and no bra all the darn time now, I'm just so comfortable. I enjoy the fact that I feel well, healthy and comfortable. I wish you all the same... Ex-planting and being myself was the best decision I've ever made! Have not taken any recent pictures but I will this week.

I am so happy for you. I'm writing this comment to commend you for putting your story on the forum. If it even causes one woman to stop and think. before doing something as drastic as putting bags of "stuff" in her body, you will have done an immense service. But my bet is that your honest words will affect many many people. They will see that a woman was pressured by societal craziness to alter her perfectly beautiful natural breasts to try to meet some goofy standard. They will also learn of a woman taking control of her own life, who now can enjoy the self confidence of that comes from going brafree (much better term than braless) in comfort. Best wishes!

Thank you for sharing your experience! I will be calling Dr. Buenaventura tomorrow, as I want to remove the implants that have been inside me for 13 years. Did you ever get covered by insurance ?

Hi Anne0478, no my insurance would not cover it because they said it was cosmetic. Even though they were giving me issues they still said I chose to have them put in and they were not a necessity. Either way, I had to have them removed and Dr. Buenaventura was the absolute best choice. Fantastic work, nurses, facility and anesthesiologist were the absolute best! email me separate if you have any questions. I'll be more than happy to be at your side.

Thank you! I will definitely email you, as I am debating on whether to get a lift or not.

8 months after explant/scar & a little tender...
Hi ladies It has been a little while since my last update. It's been a long 8 months since my explant in December. I feel great, I just hate the scars but they are better than having those nasty implants inside of me. The scars look red and dark in a few areas, especially underneath the breast. Around the nipple they look lighter. I wish those were darker, lol... Go figure!
Also, every morning when I wakeup, the area around The nipple hurts and i wakeup soar. It goes away after 30 min once i get up forma bed. I dont know if I'm sleeping wrong or what. Sometimes through out the day they get a little soar too. I've noticed that if i massage the area a little bit or press, they it kind of goes away but it's anoying as hell. I wish this would go away!!!
Has anyone had issues with scars like this? Will they fade away? I'm becoming self concious now and I'm starting to worry they will not go away. Have any of you experienced that soarnes? What si it? How can I make it go away?
