Life gets better and better! Absolutely no pain and quite honestly I forget that I ever had implants. My favorite bra is still the Champion 6209 underwire sports bra as pictured in my last photos. It gives me the look that I want under my clothes and I have purchased them in black, beige and white. If anyone is on the fence about whether or not to get their fake bags removed - go for it! We are beautiful the way we are!

Just "love" sports bras since my explant!
I started with the Champion zip front after the compression bra stage and just have to say that I can't find any "regular" bras that compare to the comfort and support. I have now changed to the one in my latest picture that is underwire and gets me away from the flattened look. I ended up with one breast larger than the other and although it does not bother me (I think because the rupture was worse in the right side my PS had to take some tissue to get silicone out) it does make it hard to find a regular bra that fits correctly. The cups on the sports bras are stretchy and snuggly fit both sides, bigger or smaller it does not matter! I was left with a fair amount of breast tissue (not sure where it all came from), so the very light weight little stretchy bras don't give me enough support. Wish they did, I think they are adorable and so feminine! I am on a bit of a search for something a little "sexy" if you know what I mean, however these girls are still kind of in the "jelly" stage and feel best supported. If any of you come across a bra with the support and stretchiness of a sports bra, but something more feminine, please let me know. I can't seem to stop searching the bra department of every store I go into! In the meantime, it's sports bras for me I guess.

You look great! I need to update my story - will try to do so this weekend which will be two months.

Hey Long Tall! How are you doing? What are you wearing for a bra? I can't seem to figure out what to buy other than sports bras.

Hey right back, JustMe! I'm doing great - the only slight issue I have is some minor tethering in my right breast. My doc says he can fix it if it doesn't improve with massage (which I'm still doing). I'm in regular bras and have been for around a month. I went crazy at Victoria Secret's semiannual sale and came home with 4 new bras, including one hot pink one! What was I thinking, lol?????? Try going to a high-end lingerie shop - let them measure you and see what they suggest. That's what I did and I was shocked when they said I needed a 34dd! But they were right amazingly! I also bought a bra from them - can't remember the brand but it's French - and it's extremely comfortable, probably because it's the first time in years I've worn the right size bra! Take care!

Thank you - I really am glad to have them gone; like a lot of women here I had them put in at a difficult point in my life. Happy now!

Hi MB Girl - Thank you for the compliment. I can honestly say that I'm happy as can be to have the plastc gone! I really never had health issues from them but now I can get my mammograms and know they can see what they need to _ feeling thinner is a real plus too!

Needed to be... Not over sexy, very
Appropriate and with my TT I look
Shapely with a tiny waiste and full

Be alittle daring and dress those
Girls up... Good luck. Angelface1

Hi! I am so happy for you that you got that silicone out of your body and are feeling good! You look great. My suggestion is to look for underwire/push-up bras that have the removable pads. I always look for this style because I like removing the extra push-up pad from both cups (comfortable for me to have underwire, but I can't stand too much padding that is built into a cup). However, I bet you could remove the pad from one side and leave the other in to even out your fit! Next time I bra shop if I see some of this style I will make sure to note them for you. They are pretty common though in many brands.

Thank you so much for your help on this. I bet I can find them when I go to the outlets - not far for me and the Hanes store is huge. Appreciate your response!

Warning - Disgusting Photo of 32 yr old Silicone Implants
I had asked my surgeon for this photo and just received it from him. Who would want these left inside their body. Obviously the one on the right was a challenge for him to remove. I am very, very happy with the Explant that he did.

32 Years just like me! I am so glad I got rid of the hard, cold ticking bombs too! And it makes me smile every time I remember that they are not in anymore. The implants look wretched don't they? Your last photo is fantastic! X

Mine were Dow Corning also - they must have been the big seller back then! Good to see you looking and sounding so good Lima Girl!

Unbelievable how (big) your boobs look like AFTER the implant! Good for you!!! I'll be tiny, but that's ok....we're all better off, right? :)
June 16, 2013
I KNOW! I never had that much up there before - don't know where it came from - LOL - you might not be as tiny as you think. You're right, we don't care as long as the darn things are out. I'm a little saggy but for 68 years old I'm not complaining - poor boobies have been through a lot!
June 17, 2013
You're right....no way I will ever look like you, but that's ok! Whatever I get will be fine :)
