Breaking Up with my Implants: Best Decision Ever

WORTH IT$15,300
Surgery with Dr. Rankin @ Aqua Plastic Surgery
After waiting over 18 months, I finally had my saline implants (placed in 2006, under the muscle, 330cc overfilled to 400+) removed by Dr. Rankin and his amazing team. Lauren (my concierge) made the process seamless—even traveling 10+ hours away was stress-free.
Surgery day was smooth thanks to Tasha & Betsy, who kept me calm and confident. I was first case at 6 AM, opted for a nerve block + IV hydration, and was out in just 3.5 hrs. ZERO pain—Tylenol only! Minimal bruising, drains felt “funny” but not painful. (Take the arnica, trust me ).
At 1.5 weeks out, I can breathe again, my fatigue + inflammation are gone, and I feel aligned with my health goals. Do your research! En bloc capsulectomy is 100% the standard of care. So grateful for Dr. Rankin’s skill and his team’s compassion. Stay tuned—I’ll keep sharing updates as I heal
