22 Yo, 225cc subfascial, Want an Explant NOW - Brazil

ORIGINAL POST

So about 4 weeks ago I was really still in doubt...

implantnop
So about 4 weeks ago I was really still in doubt if I would go for a BA or not. I talked to my surgeon and he said that its an elective surgery so I could do it at any moment in my life. Recently I lost 10Kg, wich made me feel almost with no boobs and very self concious about it, so thats why 3 months ago I sarted looking for a Plastic Surgeon. The day before implant I was so in doubt I started crying and coudnt sleep that night. Told my doctor and he said its common cause I'm nervous about the surgery and from his experience, the girls that postponed operation, still did it anyways months from then, but I would have to do all exams again. I don't know why I tought no, I don't want to loose all this time again and if I don't do it now I dunno when I'm gonna do it. So I went to get it done and as soon as I woke up without anesthetics effect, I was in panic and wanted it to be a nightmare I would
wake up from at anytime. I got deeply depressed the next days and all I could think of was how stupid I was and what have I done to my body and want my little ones back. I was also thinking that I don't really like the way most of silicone brests look and feel but I still went to do it. And I can remember me saying a few years ago that I wouldn't do it because of the loss of sensibility and here I am loosing all of it and having pain in the nipples and not feeling my breasts properly. I am sure I made a terrible mistake, I don't know if I will feel better or even worse with explant.. I want my breast to be as before but I'm also very self conscious about that scar. I have been seeing a psychologist since When I got it done and I tought I'd appreciete the support of this group as well. I wanna stop hurting myself.

I am so very sorry that you are feeling this way. I would say give yourself time to heal and see if you still feel the same way in a few months. You may come to love them. If you continue to have feelings that you do not like them further down the line I would say remove them. For now try to not focus on them and go on with your daily activities. You will know how you feel in time. Please dont stress and take care of yourself. Have a great weekend.

Your breasts were awesome before implants, so if you decide to explant they will be as beautiful, since you implanted a few weeks ago. When I got my first set of implants, I absolutely hated them, and I was told that I would get used to them. So I waited for years, but I didn't like them more. I hated having something inside me. Don't worry about the scars, they will fade, and your sensations will come back. It is common to feel depressed after surgery, but if it lasts too long, find some help, don't stay like that. And if you are scared about an other general anesthesia, ask for a removal under local. Good luck, and take care of you.

Thank you Helene!! My doctor have never explanted someone because they didn't like the implants, only to replace them.. So thats what he's been saying, that I'm going to get used to them and I should foccus in doing and thinking about other stuff.. well before the implants I was feeling good and able to do a lot of stuff and now I'm depressed and trying to revert the implants and the way I feel.. They told me to wait at least for a month and that's what i intend to do now.. but I don't know if the way I think about the implants is gonna change..
July 16, 2016
They said the same to me, that they never had anyone explanting because they didn't like the implants. Oh well, there is one now! i found a good doctor that I trusted and 9 months after implants, they are out and I'm the happiest I have been since all this nightmare started. It is your body, you are the one in charge of the happiness. Don't let anyone tell you how you have to feel.[RS bleep]

At least you realise now! There are so many of us who have kept them and been unhappy, uncomfortable and - for me - ashamed, for years! You don't need implants to be beautiful or happy. Im having mine removed after 14 years in 2 days. I wish I had done it years ago, or better yet, not at all. Good luck!
July 17, 2016
I think is so sad that your surgeon tell you to undergo although you have some doubts. I also had some doubts when I decided to put the implants in but I did too... I only had them two months cause I hated them since day 1!
I totally understand you, you are not alone! it is so complicated to feel that way but the important thing is to live in peace so do whatever you feel is better for yourself. My advice is if you want to take them out, the sooner the better.
You look so nice before implants and the age is on your side too!
kisses and lots of strengh for you

UPDATED FROM implantnop

Type of implants

implantnop
Just to update about the implants they are silicone gel 225cc placed subfascial.. I was thinking that maybe the shape will not be as good when I explant because it's not under muscle.. I wish I could get to know more exemples in this app of people with subfascial implants that have explanted.. Also my surgery was very expensive and I know many people will judge me and its gonna be worse if I don't like the results after explant.. but well, I don't like how they look and feel now either...

Hi!
Don't be bothered about other peoples imaginary opinions of you dear one! Who cares! It's your life, your body and are responsible for your own happiness and health. Most of us here all feel and have some remorse for getting BA's but we learned, the hard way and now we are on the path to self love. If we would of never gotten the BA there would always be a lingering 'what if' and doubt. AND I can tell you from personal experience by having a BA it totally backfires and most of us are having the same insecurities we did before we got them. We hate them, feel embarrassed, ashamed and not to mention the health problems that come along with them. I have had mine in for 18 long years and I cannot wait to get them out ASAP. It was only until recently I woke up or am waking up from this nightmare so give yourself tons of credit for knowing yourself and your body this early on. Lot's of women get them in and take them out quickly. Don't worry about others judging you, it's your life. Do what is best for you!!!

You are young and haven't had the implants for very long at all. Judging by some other reviews I've read here, I'll bet your boobs look exactly the same after explant, and the scar will barely be noticeable!

I waffled back and forth and did proceed with downsizing upsizing explant and I wish I had just accepted my choice and left them alone, now I have excessive over aggressive pec detachment from a bad surgeon and am in pain and thousands of dollars in the hole for no gain
July 17, 2016
Sorry hart2get .. what happened to you? Did you say you regret BA, explanting or downsizing? did u upsize again after upsizing? I looked for a review in your profile but I coudnt find one..
July 18, 2016
At first I regretted it because I loved my body and had perfect cleavage and so super sexy flat. I was a plastic surgeons dream patient. I had excellent results but I mentally couldn't deal because I was not prepared and missed the old me. I downsized then upsized and that's where the problems started. He over dissected pec and I am forever messed up so explanted. I wish I could have just told myself that they were gorgeous and sexy and just accept the change. It's a little too late. Yes you can remove but why. You may as well enjoy because you won't be the same. It will help you fill out clothes and the added curves are actually nice. I guess I've concluded I looked great both ways. Now I have a problem. Once I downsized I missed the bigger ones. They were so super sexy. Had so many compliments and literally made men fall to their knees. It was insane. I couldn't handle the attention. I wish I had just accepted that o was a bombshell. Men would literally push their wives down the aisle so they could look over their shoulder at me.

I am 5'5" 115 lbs. I had 450cc under muscle, then 300cc. I'd say you should have surgeon switch you to under the muscle and increase to 300cc high profile. The 225 moderate plus are not a pretty shape. You will be much happier with HP and with the extra firmness of under the muscle.
July 18, 2016
I think the reason you are not happy is because of the shape and location of the implants. I think you'd grow to love them if they had nicer shape of HP which has a round top not flat like the moderate and placed under muscle. You'd also do better with a small increase to 300cc so you can appreciate the shape of the implant more.

Subfacial is not done often here because the weight over time stretches the skin. I popped back very well.
July 18, 2016
I just got mine out 3 weeks ago as of tomorrow. I already feel so much better. I had them for 5 years. Mine were under the muscle and the doctor had to remove a lot of my muscle because it was sick. I think you are in better shape not having them under the muscle. ❤️❤️ Good luck sweetheart! Trust your gut. Save your life. https://youtu.be/QQnsGcLb7pI

My surgery
UPDATED FROM implantnop

Help

implantnop
Today I have another appointment with the doctor I saw 2 weeks pos BA and I have do call him to confirm.. but I'm actually panicking and thinking if I should really go ahead with this, I'm already feeling bad about having cut my body and gone to this stupid surgery that left me crease scars and I'm feeling exhausted to go through this all over again in such a short amount of time. I feel tired and sad. I wish this was just a terrible dream I'd wake up from. I need to feel confident enough about how I'm gonna feel about myself to go trough this again. I'm single and young and I was a bit shy last time I was with a boy with my small breasts wich I think is sad. But how am I gonna feel with small and scared breasts?

Olha, a cicatriz a gente já tem porque já fizemos a cagada rs, e sinceramente isso é o que menos me preocupa, porque ela não vai ficar visivel pra todo mundo e vai diminuir. Eu tbm morria de vergonha de ter peito pequeno e tbm estou solteira, e em relação a ter pouco peito+uma cicatriz, a gente assume que colocou silicone e não era o que imaginava, que somos humanos e erramos. Depois que eu vi essa foto da Candice (angel da victoria's secret - http://i.imgur.com/hFltx19.jpg ) me senti tão bem, rsrs. Tem tantas mulheres lindas, famosas, milionarias com pouco peito e pra um homem que gostar de vc isso vai ser o de menos! Mas como essa moça comentou sua cirurgia ainda é muito recente, de repente vc até se acostume... Eu to tirando com praticamente 10 meses, mas acho que com uns 4 a 6 já da pra vc ter certeza. Mas vc tem que parar completamente de pensar no que outras pessoas podem achar e fazer o que vc sentir que é melhor pra vc!

Obrigada Debora, acho q é total isso mesmo.. to um pouco insegura com o resultado que ficaria mas acho q isso é normal.. Acabou que eu não fui na consulta mesmo.. já que eu terei que ver meu cirurgião de qualquer jeito essa semana ou na outra achei melhor dar mais um tempo pro meu corpo e falar com o cirurgião que me operou primeiro.. To mto feliz por você que já vai operar essa semana :) E vi a foto da candice maravilhoosa

Lots of love to you! I'm feeling great since I got mine out 5 days ago. So far people aren't really treating me any differently. Your breasts were beautiful before implant and will return to that when you explant. Don't pressure yourself. You will only be stronger and wiser at the end of it all, it's a learning process!
