Still very happy with my choice to explant with Dr. Park! Wanted to share updated images to see how much they have filled in since my last post.
Scars are almost gone completely and even after nursing my second child for two years, they still have fluff!

U look amazing!!! Definitely great choice you've made
You look great!! After my explant I would be happy if mine ended up looking like yours. Thank you for updating your profile.
Thank you so much for sharing! Finally getting mine out in the next month or 2. Doctors say I should be okay without a breast lift and I don't want to do one ...too much cutting, but I'm still a bit worried what they'll look like...It's really encouraging to see someone with such great results who did not opt for a lift!
I honestly hope I look like you after my explant. I've been on real self for quite some time trying to find someone that looked similar to me in the chest area and had the same size implants under the muscle. When I happened upon your review, it gave me a lot of hope and solidified my choice to not have a lift. I've had implants since I was 19. I'm 40 now. I just want to be me. All me. Naturally me. I'm super excited and even more so after your new post. Thank you for sharing!! You honestly look amazing. So happy for you.
You look fantastic!

Still seeing slight improvements and I suspect a little more fluffing will happen in the next 9 or so months ???????????????? Dr. Park said I would likely conceive after removing my implants and let my body recover and sure enough, I did! It took 3 years and several fertility treatments for our first child so this is beyond exciting!

Not sure why it added all the ???? Lol
Congratulations! Healthy bodies=healthy babies. Enjoy the new you!
Thank you so much! Such a sweet little blessing!
Congrats on the baby <3 Nothing is more important than your health and family. You look much better without the darn implants BTW - very cute & nice. I totally know implants do have Heath implications - serious ones. [RS bleep]
Thank you! I couldn't agree more about having your health and family. And I have zero regrets about removing them. They are so much more feminine now. Xo
Did you wear a sports bra everyday post-op? If so, how long? I’m one day post-op and I’m wearing a soorts bra hoping it will tighten the skin.
Congratulations on the little one <3
You look astounding. So much progress from the first days after explant too.
Thank you! I’m so grateful to have found my dr and decided to explant. Still very happy and I’m 6 months strong of breastfeeding our newest babe!
Happy to hear baby is healthy! <3

Still very happy with my decision to explant with Dr. Park in Oceanside. My breasts have healed so nicely and feel much lighter. I still may have a lift one day after I'm done having children, but I may not. One thing I know is I will never put implants in again.

I have a very similar story. My surgery date is September 22. I am also having a lift at the same time. Thank you for sharing your story! I am so glad you are feeling better and I hope to soon!
Good luck this week!!
you look great!
Thank you!
Your breasts are beautiful! Much better than with implants! And what a change during your healing process. Were your capsules removed too? Were your implants textured or smooth?
Thank you! It's been an amazing journey so far and I'm so glad I did it. I did not remove the capsules as I was not healthy enough at the time and gave a hard time with anesthesia,so I had them removed under local. It was a decision i researched a lot and felt confident with. My implants were smooth saline.
Wow you have a great result!
Thank you!
Amazing how they improved....this is encouraging!! They look really good!
Thank you!
