Going to wait to the fall to have them changed out.
I've decided to wait to the fall to have them replaced. I have no issues with my boobs right now and we are right in the middle of renovating our bathroom and I'm extremely busy at work. Also the new cohesive gel Inspira implants should be approved in Canada by the fall and I want those.
My TSX-700 implants have been recalled
I received a recall letter stating my textured implants were recalled because they are linked to a rare form of cancer. I was in this week to see my surgeon and he recommends changing them out for smooths. I am freaking out because I read the recall statement from Allergan saying there was nothing to panic about and when I talked to my surgeon he explained that while the risk is very low it is a devastating if you get it. The implants are free but health Canada doesn't want to cover the hospital fees because the risk of cancer isn't high enough for them but high enough for them to ban Allergan from selling these implants. I was so taking off guard because my boobs are perfect and I didnt want to touch them for many years. When I chose these implants I knew and accepted the risks associated with breast augmentation but this cancer risk was found out after my boobjob. I think the government should initially cover the medical costs and go after the company to reimburse them. I am so mad about having to pay like $5000 again for something that I believe the company should pay for. When there is a recall on my car I don't pay the labor to get it installed, why is it different for these big medical companies?
It looks like in mid June would be be date to get them swapped. I always thought I had TRX Responsive implants but I actually have TSX-700 soft touch implants that are firmer. I am pretty sure I will be going with the same volume but going to a SCX-700 which is a higher cohesive gel implant that holds its shape better and gives slightly more upper pole fullness. I was also considering going down to 600s but that would involve reducing the pocket with sutures and in the end I was scared I would ruin the symmetry and shape and decided to go for an exact swap.

Provider Review
Dr Gomez did both my BAs. He is very approachable and kind. I had a little mishap where the wrong implants were ordered but other than that I highly recommend Dr.Gomez. I am very satisfied of my outcome.
