Thanks for all the info. I had saline implants in 2000 (600 cc), removed, replaced and a lift in 2010. I wake up every day in pain from a capsular contraction. I live in Parkland and have been looking for a plastic surgeon to get these things removed!! Sounds like you were happy with Dr. Pozner and I've heard good things about him!! You look so much better without those implants!

Hello! First let me say from my own experience & from watching other ladies stories, you are going to come about PERFECT! After looking at your pictures I can pretty much say, you will look like you never had them after your explant. You got a small enough size, for it to not make much of a difference in your skin. Congrats on your decision to explant! It's the BEST think I ever did!!!!! So happy with the REAL me!

Well let me tell you ladies this, this is the BEST thing I EVER did! So happy to be healthy, happy & implant free!! I feel so much better & get compliments from everyone, ie, you look slimmer, younger, great, etc. even the doc said I looked great & that I will continue to see changes. I've been following a few of you & I'm so excited that your results are coming out great as well. A couple of you are due to get your explants within a week or so and you are going to be just as happy as the rest of us, if not HAPPIER! I feel truly blessed to have found this site, to help me make my FINAL decision & to the many ladies that have explants before me. Thank U, thank U, thank U!!!!

You look great! Perfect! Did you have to wear an ace wrap or anything like that? Were the capsules very thin? Mine are also 350cc submuscular. Thanks!

I wore an ace bandage for the first 24 hrs, then went next day for check up & removed wrap. Doc said nothing about my capsules, except that they WILL dissolve into my body.

I had mine removed (saline) last Thursday- no lift. Was given a local so didn't know what was going on. Have been wearing a halter ever since which holds me in and she wants me to wear it 3-4 weeks. Wish mine looked as good as yours and they certainly aren't as large! Never were which is why I got the implants. I was a C and now will probably be a B. She told me it would take up to 3 months for them to regain their shape. I am so depressed but after reading this have hope. Right now they look more like pancakes!!!

You certainly look better without the implants! How do you feel the muscle after explantation? I want to explant my submuscular implants, and I'm worried about distortion (although my doctor told me that I won't have any problem with it). Thank you so much

Hello 325,
You should nt have any distortion, unless you already have some. Since you don't have any pics. I'll assume since your dr said you will not have any, I'm guessing you won't have any either. Your muscles won't even feel like anything
was done, because he doesn't touch your muscle at all. You have an opening under your muscle that he will work through.

This opening is from your previous surgery. Your first surgery they need to cut the muscle off the rib cage & place under, in an area that's not use to having something under it.
You will be doing the opposite this time around. You will feel so much better. This is a simple procedure & can be done under local. You will not have any muscle discomfort.

Thank you for answering (and sorry for my bad english). As you say, I don't have any muscle distortion or disconfort now, and my implants slightly move when I flex (I'm only 6 weeks post-op), I think both things are favorable to me. I really know I'll feel better without the implants, I didn't feel like myself at all since I notice that they are inside of me. They're absolutely changing some aspects of my life in such a negative way- so I'm pretty sure with my decision.
I've been very worried about how my muscle will look at after explantation, but your words really helped me to feel more calmed down. Thank you very much :)

Oh my gosh! You look so great now!! The scars look great! How was eating after the surgery?

It was fine! I went under local, so I was awake the entire time (30 minutes).

Did you listen to music? I have two pills, I believe I'm supposed to take one prior and one after

The surgery room had music playing. I was carrying a conversation with the doc & the nurses.

WOW you look amazing.. I can not wait to see how I will look. Im so scared because they keep telling me I will need a lift but Im not going to get one... I hope I look as good as you.

I think your going to do fine! Just give your new/old breasts time to heal & tighten up. No matter how they come out, stick to waiting at least a year before making another decision. I don't think you will need another surgery for a lift.
