Best decision ever. No regrets. Weight has stayed off. I am certain implants made me outbon weight. I am no longer Top heavy. Much easier to find clothes to fit.
All healed really well. Plumped up nicely. Don’t hesitate if you’re thinking about it

Seeing my original Surgeon to have my 480 Mentor HP removed August 20th. You look amazing and I'm positive I'm going to be just as happy. So ready to get rid of these matronly boobs. I was 34B before and have been toting these 36G around for 13 years. Thank you for posting. Your info and pictures really help those of us who are wanting and needing this procedure.

Best decision ever. No regrets. Strangest thing of all is that I've lost a fair bit of weight without trying. So good to be natural.

Thank you for sharing your story. You look fantastic! Great to hear that you are feeling really good about the decision. I'm getting my 20 year old saline implants out on Tuesday and can't wait to rid myself of them for good. They have caused me physical pain from day one. Wish I had decided to do this years ago.

Hi Minky, just saw your post. I just had my 18 yr old, saline implants out 3 wks ago, and I’ll be 65 next month. Wondering how you’re doing since explant. Did you have capsule removed and/ or a lift? I was a 36DD with implant, now I’m just about an A cup. Happy to be me, but I’m teally praying that they fluff up a little bit. How are yours doing?

Aloha, I've been having seroma hematoma problems a d have been reading your post, in addition to the compression bra and Dr draining you , did you do anything else to help decrease the re-occurance of the seroma? Vitamins? Massage? Positioning? Any advice would be helpful to me....thanks:)

Hello. No nothing else but I did find the fluid built up if I was over active so rest is important. Good luck

Thank you, one more thing how long until you felt you could be active, one month? 2months?

I lost weight, too. I wonder what that’s all about? I am wondering in my situation if it was information due to silicone leaking into my body.

Look into Brest implant illness. It’s getting a lot of publicity right now because so many women are experiencing horrible symptoms In their body years after implants. Upon removal, many women are losing weight. The metals used to create implants leach into our bodies and attack our endocrine system. Effecting hormones, and thus make it extremely hard to lose weight,
September 15, 2018
I have been experiencing the opposite: after my explantation I have gained weight and cannot get rid of it now :-)

Still delighted. I am so happy with my natural breasts. Scars barely visible. All swelling and fluid build up gone. Clothes look better feel more confident younger and slimmer and more full of energy.

Great to hear you r still happy with your result. I am pleased with mine also even though the left which had the rupture has a bit less tissue and is a little bit flatter than the right but they both look great and i have zero regrets. My energy and motivation levels have increased enormously too. Only thing, do your boobs look the same when u raise your arms up ? One of my scars is more attached to my body than the other so the left ruptured one which the scar isn't as attached the boob appears flatter when arm is lifted. Have a follow up with my surgeon on 9th August. Need to update my own posts.
