Hope this helps some of you ladies out there considering explant. Note I still have the steri strips on, they will not come off until my follow up appointment, this Friday. Hopefully I can get out of the post surgery bra, and go buy some new ones : )

Get my Implants in 2006, never feeled good with them. I want to have them out, but it is hard to find a doctor in Germany who only explant , they all want to make it together with a lift and it is very expensive here. But I will find a way, maybe in Czech - it is cheaper there. Thank you for sharing your story, it is helpful for me and others.

1 day post op... So happy to be me

Had implants removed yesterday, sure wish I would have done this years ago, the first time it crossed my mind. I feel so free. If you are considering explant, don't wait is my advice. I feel great, a little tired, and this bra they put me in is itchy, but I rather that than the heavy toxic bags. So thankful for this website , and that The Lord provided me the means financially to have the procedure.

Great to hear. So no drains no wrap? Did you have any scar tissue to remove (CC)? I'm the same saline under 350cc . have had mine 19 years going to remove in January. How was local anesthesia?
December 8, 2014
No drains , no wrap , didn't have CC, my implants were real soft and moved around freely. I guess that's why maybe no wrap? Just this front closure bra. Local anesthesia was a breeze , they have me a Valium to take on the way that am, so I was relaxed , then they did the IV , I did drift off to sleep , but the whole procedure only took 30-35 minutes. I'm so happy I did it, I have seen them totally yet, have peeked, of course they are small but oh what a relief, I can take the bra off tomorrow am and shower, have been taking baths, of course can't get upper body wet : / I feel great so far. Plan on going back to work tomorrow.

December 8, 2014

December 10, 2014
I did post the after pics , finally : )
December 10, 2014
Wow, you had such wonderful results! I am so happy for you! You and the others here have spurred me into action. I called today and made a consultation appointment with the doctor who did my original surgery about 13-14 years ago. My appointment is on Friday! I am hoping I can get this done really quickly, before next semester starts. (I'm back in school.) Thanks so much for sharing your story!
December 10, 2014
That is awesome, if they can get you in soon you will be good before next semester. Today is 5 days post-op and I feel great, sometimes to good, but our bodies let us know if we "overdo" ; ) It is nice to be able to wear my button up shirts and not have to have it unbuttoned down to the third button, because of the "pull" I am so glad my journey has inspired you, you will fell wonderful being back to your "natural" self. : ) I look forward to keeping up with your journey
