Squishy and Soooo Happy!!!! - Boston, MA

I had my 1 week follow up with PS. The only disappointing realization is that my breasts will still contract inwards when I flex my chest muscles. You know how the implants would pull to the sides when you'd flex? Well, since the muscle was cut during augmentation, the only way to fix it would be to have muscle sutured. I opted to keep capsule due to cost, recovery and recommendation by my PS. It's not noticeable under my clothes but I worry about swimsuit season. Haven't tried on yet. I wish my previous surgeon would have told me about the muscle contraction before I made decision to augment. I didn't research very well. No mind....still extremely happy they're out!!!!!

Hi Ladies! I had my 15 yr old, 350cc (?) behind the muscle saline implants removed last Thursday!!!! I'm 45 and had a hysterectomy 5 yrs ago so I'm also in menopause. My dr left the capsules and there was minimal pain for 2-3 days. Today is much better and my deflated boobs are improving daily. I wore a tank top the first 2 days because my incision (below breast) was too sore for a sports bra. Now I'm in sports bra all day and tank top to bed. Yes, they are sad looking at first...like the party's over BUT fear not!!! They will improve each day so don't worry! I rub a good body butter all over my entire chest daily, just in case that helps with skin bouncing back.

My question...do any of you have a "retraction" when your muscles flex? It's like my boobs push inward when the muscles flex. It looks REALLY weird and I'm concerned about getting back to the gym.

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I'm so happy to have them out!!! Yay for us!!!!
