Goal is to have back my health and cutie little boobies that are ALL mine! Looking forward to my surgery. Today was emotional as I committed to payment... But I know I'm doing what's best for me.
I have had 2 revision and always requested a smaller size. To my dismay it has never been accomplished. On my last surgery I actually had a blood vessel let loose and cause a horrible effect in which I had two more events to fix. This has left me wanting to heal from the trauma as well as the daily fibromyalgia and migraines I suffer from. I have long researched and listened to some amazing stories with explant procedures and I am moving forward!????????
I will continue to update as I go -

Has Dr Honeycutt always been your PS? Did she originally put the implants in?

No. She did one of the revisions. Not the one with the unfortunate outcome...

Congrats on your decision! I had explantation on November 2nd and it was definitely the right decision for me. Already, my upper back hurts much less and my clothes fit better. In some weird way, I feel sexier now, and free too. I will be following you through your journey!

I am one month post op with explant. Dr Honeycutt is my surgeon also. I have been very happy with her and the staff. My nurses have been vey good and when asked questions are very thorough. I also had lipo and fat transfer. Very happy with the lipo and have a nice flat tummy, nice curved waistline and no love handles.
My breast fat transfer seems to me to be about 50% of the fat lived. My breast are a tiny bit tender still everything else feels pretty normal.
Good luck. Eat healthy and drink lots of water pre and post operatively

Thank you! I'm so happy I get to have this done. Wishing you a great success also!

Thank you. How are you having your surgery done? Are you having local or general? Are you having your capsules removed? I am having a change of heart about my surgery. I think I want to go from having local to twilight. I think the anxiety of being awake during is hitting me. I'm not sure. I'm meeting with a different surgeon on Thursday to ask his opinion. He was highly recommended by my md and it turns out he is cheaper than the other surgeon who would do it under local only. He is also closer to home and I have other friends who have gone to him and said he does good work. I have flip-flopped so much over this! This has been so hard for me emotionally! I hate surgery and anesthesia but maybe doing twilight which is not as heavy as general might be better for me personally because at least I won't know what's going on! It's so confusing trying to figure out what to do. So many doctors have so many different opinions. This whole process has been than the first surgery! I will be following your story and I wish you a positive outcome. I think you are very brave!

I am so happy I did it and found this site, as I have said before, seeing others journey it prepared me for what can happened, so when my left tata was indented I didn't freak out. You will be so glad after your done healing. It has been 37 years for me and to feel a real breast was nice and to have them jiggle instead of thump is a whole new experience....lol.

Hi girls. Looks like we are on the same boat ;) Would you mind please taking a look at my review and giving me a sincere opinion? I feel a little lost myself. Thing is, I have booked a revision in 10 days but I am still unsure about going under the knife again. A little insight would be much appreciated. Xxxx

Thank you and we are all rooting for a good recovery!
Can I ask if your surgery will take the scar tissue out as well? I am trying to learn about explantation for my implants. Your journey is exhibiting strength and your results will be wonderful

Thank you so very much! I am hoping to have less visable scaring and the capsules are going to be removed. I will have to have adjustments on shape and size I believe but I will know more after my pre-op. Stay turned - here to encourage others as they need.
Can't wait to be free of the foreign objects @ this point!!

I think I will end up a 34b also. My deflated side is a 34b and the doctor thinks it should stay there hopefully. I used to be a 32aa so I guess this will be an improvement.

Great! It's a perfect size in my opinion. Yes... My sides are different also. My doctor assured to adjust as needed which comforts me so much. I truly think small breasts are beautiful... It's great how they can see how much tissue you have left and give that estimate...
Wishing you a wonderful outcome
