Implants in Only 2 Weeks. 250cc Under, Don't Feel Like Me, Want Them out but Scared - Boston, MA

I am currently 2 weeks post op from my BA. I was completely flat...just basically nipple-couldn't even fill out my 32aa bra...I got 250cc mentor silicone gel under the muscle. The surgery went great, minimal pain, the inflammatory incisions are nice, and the shape is great. Great surgeon. Unfortunately I am having some serious regret. I cried so much and I want to avoid any risks. I am scared of what I have read and don't like feeling fake and I used to believe in all natural everything and silicone is far from natural in my body. I'm only 26 and live a very fit and active lifestyle and don't want these in the way. I know I want them out now, by am hesitating because I fear what they'll look like after removal. I just want my tiny boobs back and wish I never did this.

Hi!! I am in your same situation. I had my BA 6 weeks ago and I hate them since day 1. I cry all day I take meds to sleep because I have anxiety because of thw feeling of the implants inside me and also because the horrible feeling of regreting. I want to be as before. I hope that can take them out early.I am 24 years old, if you want to talk to me. I am in a miserable depresion since then......
It's awful. Everyone things I'll snap out of it, but I don't think I'll be really happy until I'm myself again...and I am not myself with these things inside me. They look amazing, but I don't feel amazing. I'm way too active and do crazy things and work is physical to risk rupture. What size and type did you get?
I understand you, I just want to wake up of this nightmare.
I have 360 cc silicone implants under the muscle.
What are you going to do? I think that my surgeon don't wanna do the explantation. I am looking for another surgeon and of course I will remove them as soon as possible....I am afraid of how they will look, but I wish it would be good. I feel artificial, awful with this foreign objects inside my chest, I can feel them all time even when I touch because I am very thin. I can't even sleep. They look nice on a bikini but for me it is not really important, it's more important my health and my mind, and before my BA I was really obsess with boobs. I was sure that my boobs were not enough and now I realized that they were just perfect to me. I hope that you feel well, at least I hope that you clear your ideas and decide the best for yourself, maybe you feel better in a few weeks. I know it's horrible to feel this way but remember that you are not alone
I dont know what to do. I wish that I could just rewind and never have done this. I was perfect the way I was but I let busty girls make me feel bad about my small boobs. But i realize now, they were beautiful and all mine. I am very thin as well, I am so scared of what they might look like if I get them out.
I didnt even look bad at all. I loved my body before...It was gorgeous and I felt sexy and now I feel awful about myself.
I hope your going ok Hun.... Do you think you might adjust to them at all? I'm 5 months post op and I don't even know they are there now, a lot different from what I felt a few weeks after surgery:) but if you did get them out pretty much straight away, I doubt there would be any change because the implants haven't had enough time to stretch your skin, I'm guessing anyway haha. Hope everything goes well for you:) x
At times I think I might be able to adjust to them, but I realize that they will always get in the way of something that I want to do. They're too big for my frame and I was BEYOND flat befre... and I risk all the complications and "boob illness". I was so perfect before and didn't realize until after I did this. The doctor says that I should give it 3 months before he will do anything to them. I think because I wanted them for so long that I just went for it. But honestly, I second guessed it a week before the surgery but figured that I spent all that money, I might as well do it. Now I'll have to pay more for whatever I choose to do.
All psychologists will tell you that any change, positive or negative, frequently causes some depression. Even things like a big job promotion and marriage can make you sad. You have all your options open still. I think you should wait 6 months and see if they will interfere in your life style. If they do you can do the explant. I have had mine for 9 years. At first I was aware of them all the time. By 6 months they were me and I have had no ill effects. It is wonderful buying a bra that fits and stays in place. They always slipped up when I was small. You know contact lenses are not natural. All the false nails girls wear are not natural. And there are pace makers, intrathecal pumps for pain medication are a type of implant. You absolutely need to do what makes you feel the best about yourself. I just believe that you may be deciding a little too fast, and a short wait still provides you with all your options.
I had the same problem of bras slipping up. I just wish I didnt do it at all. I thought it would boost my confidence but i felt better before. I'll give it time...cause my surgeon wont do anything to them for 3-6 months. I have never been depressed about anything in my life until now. I cry everyday and that is not me. My options feel slim because, do I remove them and look horrible or keep them and be uncomfortable with future costs and problems? Glad that yours have lasted so long with no issues. What kind do you have?
Why did you do it if you weren't sure. Most plastic surgeons now a days make a phchlgist sign off. Take them out now before you get use to them and stretch your smoking out. Natural is in.
I wanted them since I was 16 and now am 26...I learned to love and accept the way that I was but earlier in 2015, I started feeling sad about my small boobs cause everyone was flaunting theirs..so I researched and found a great surgeon and waited a while and went for it. Now that I have them, I hate them. I dont feel like me and I dont think bigger is sexier. I wanted to chicken out before but had already spent the money. I shouldve just forfeited the momey and kept myself the way i was. Now i am scared to explant because of how bad theyll look. Wish i could go back in time.
I think you just need to get used to the new shape. I was a 34AA before breast augmentation and now am a full 34A. Gym clothes fit better (do aerobics 2X week- plus time at the gym), swimsuits look fantastic (and I'm a lap swimmer). You probably still have some swelling that will subside and I bet you will get compliments as you continue with your active lifestyle.
I really hope it doesnt affect my active lifestyle. I miss the gym, pushups, pullups...I kayak, swim, cliff jump, zipline, everything...Ive read some stories about people who cant do that anymore and have gotten ill. I feel like my boobs are gonna slide down my body. It's so weird..what cc did you get?? I went from a AA to a B with 250cc. I hope they get smaller. I just wanted to fill out the bras that I have and now I am too big...
I had 150cc and at first I thought I was huge but it took awhile for the swelling to go down with the compression bras. It's been 2 years and I still wear some bras with padding and wonder if I shouldn't have gone to a B cup which really isn't a large size.
