Hi ladies.. I've been so nervous, scared, upset, and unsure of my upcoming surgery. I regret ever ever getting my breast implants... I had a small size b and decided to get 374 saline cc when I was 24.. Little did I know that this would be the biggest mistake of my life! I've had 4 reconstructive surgeries, saline to silicone, 375 to 300 ccs, and have done the protein matrix. Literally I've spent so much money.. More importantly so much emotional distress and time. My body is rejecting the implant and I've had severe capsular contracture. Every time I decided to go under, was in hopes of getting normal soft breasts. After 10 years and 4 surgeries, I still have hard deformed breasts.
I'm tired of these things taking over my life and now am scared of keeping them in my body.!
I waited for my son to start walking. And have made the decision to do implant removal. Dr said I don't need a a lift, just nipple reconstruction. I'm afraid and so nervous.. Am I doing the right thing??
My surgery is this wed. Hopefully my results will be ok.. And I'll finally be back to old self and be happy again.
I'll post pics for those of you are suffering from capsular contracture. :))

34 years old and going on 5th surgery!!! Finally removing implants

My surgery went well today. I was under for 1.5 hrs and dr Corbin did a implant removal with ariola revision. I was crying and so afraid and was very attempted to leave!.. I'm glad I didnt. I'm praying this to be my last and final breast surgery!! I Can't ever expect my breasts to be beautiful and back to normal (10 years ago).. But I just couldn't live with them!
I have my implants and they are silicone 350cc and I didn't realize how heavy they were! I'm 5.6 and weigh 116. I'm wondering if my back and neck pain will go away. Let's see
Day 1: not in so much paid and prob the best surgery out of 5. Scared to see what my breasts look like... Am I going to be saggy with deformities?!?! All I can do at this point is pray. Will post pics after bandages are gone

Well done.. Just have faith at least the pain is gone and u will now feel free. Has anyone else heard that having implants out, will make u lose weight?? As this is what I heard..

I've heard that. I'm sure it has a lot to do with getting your body back in balance. I'll let the world know soon enough :)

If you have really big implants & little to no breast tissue, I think it's a given that you'd lose a few pounds or so. But a lot of women have a lot of their natural breast tissue left so may not lose much. For me personally, I lost only 8oz with both 330cc's out and have already gained it back, four days later. I think it really depends on both factors of how much natural breast tissue you have left and how big the implants are.

It's my 4th day post implant removal. My recovery is perfect.. I took off my bandages today and I was crying.. Was afraid to see the results. My husband has been so supportive and thinks they look so much better! I feel lighter.. Breasts are wrinkly and saggy.. Will it get better over time????

I Hope so, Iam wanting to do the same thing. Done with the implants! If you had a lift why is there sagging? Also I was worried about the pockets the implants are in, does it leave indents?

I had a implant removal with a ariola reconstruction. I think they gave me a semi lift by taking out excess skin. Good luck!
March 14, 2015
Well I think they like ok great honestly u have a great chest even after 4 days from the op. They look like they will pull back in to me. Well done for being brave. I am going to see someone next wk about having mine removed now. Happy recovery :)

Wow they look gorgeous!! You have even fluffed yet either! From the looks of things right now you're going to be more than satisfied!! Congratulations sweetie!!

You look so, so good already (look at all that breast tissue!) & will look fabulous when you're totally healed! Since you didn't have a lift the skin is wrinkled and saggy on you from years of implants. Once that starts to retract though it'll disappear and - perfection!

Hi
use the compression bra there is some loose skin but this helps for the retraction. I had the same problem in the down side of breast but it helped really lot;-) be patient. I am 6 weeks now it is ok already;-)

Thanks! did you wear the bra day and night? I Just bought another compression bra
