4 month post op update I came through Hell and survived!

I am a recent explanter ( new word:) 11/29/2019 and the last 8+ weeks were really hard. My Dr. had to leave some paper thin scar tissue inside because it was in places that too remove it could have caused serious injury or death. I read that if that is the case that it is important to detox after wards. I am still detoxing. Most of the ailments i had pre explant went away after explant, no more neck pain, at all, zero, zilch. Still was getting rashes and when I began my detox I got the worst rash of my life all over my shoulders and under breasts and back. I thought I was in Hell. I treated it with western, natural holistic, and homeopathic medicine. the homeopathic medicine seemed to make it worse for me. but the combo of western (steroids) and natural, i.e. dead sea salt baths, essential oils, and ointments and bleach baths, and good old benzol peroxide foaming cleanser, along with goat kefir, Green Algae, Quercetin, vitamin D, have cleared it up about 90% so far. Also using Pau D'arco tea, wormwood tea, and herbal day and nighttime teas. It's been a truly healing journey. I feel like had toxic bags in me for 35 years ( not the same bags, I switched them out 3 times) I feel like my breasts were assaulted for 35 years. I feel sad that I did that to myself and that I felt I needed to. I also did enjoy them when I was younger so it wasn't all bad, I definitely felt more desirable with them, but at the end of the day it isn't really what I want to be desired for. Now, if someone doesn't like me because I don't have large breasts, well it just sounds silly to even contemplate. lol I too sent- straight explant no lift. my Dr. is making me wait a year though I have heard other Drs. perform a lift 6 months after explant. I think because I've had so many surgeries on my breasts already hee u.s concerned about tissue health and not losing my nipples which is a concern with lifts, tissue death and necrosis. I am pretty happy with them. they are a small D cup, not as high as i'd like but the nipples aren't facing the floor so i'm ok so far and glad I don't have the scars that come with a lift. in a bra, in clothes they are popping, so I couldn't be happier and if i'm ever naked in front of a man again he will already love me and will love me no matter what anyway so it won't matter. why didn't I know that back when I got them done to begin with? Anyway, I am really happy I got the toxic bags out and am on the road to recovery. Here are my most recent photos taken today.

8.5 weeks post op update

So I have been massaging my breasts with the coconut oil, vitamin E, Contains Clarins Bust Lift lotion, and using red light and near infrared light treatments and the left nipple is really improving. Not fully out yet but huge improvement. My breasts are still pulling up weirdly when I flex my muscles but hopefully that will improve as time goes by. Still have some remaining skin rash but I am detoxing too so that is some what expected. over all I feel really good and I am glad I got the implants that were too big for me, out. They are doing ok considering everything I have put them through the last 35 years. i'm hoping I won't need or want a lift but I decided to front to give it a year to decide. i'm adding the photos I just took today. My next appointment to see my PS is in two months so I'll wait to post my next update till then. Good luck ladies with your PS journey! it can be like a roller coaster sometimes!

why bother updating when no one sees it?

I have been updating to try and help other women going through this but it seems no one sees my updates. no comments, nothing. I see other women's journey of explant and they have tons of comments and support mine hardly nothing. Its more like a private diary. guess you have to know someone to get your review seen idk.... Anyway, talking to the void here lol...

December 14, 2018 You can't find a better surgeon anywhere. He is a triple board certified Plastic surgeon and always will put your health and safety above all else. He is meticulous in what he does and has a great passion for his work. He is thorough, detailed in every aspect of your procedure. His staff is well educated, informed, and caring. His work speaks for itself and his safety record is 100%. he affiliated with two hospitals as well. He has performed both an implant exchange with capsulectomy in 2009 and an breast explant with capsulectomy in 2018. I never had any capsular contraction or any known problems with my implants but I was ready to be a small natural breast size and he was able to safely remove my implants without a lift after having various implant sizes beginning in 1983. I am thrilled with my results. I know you will be treated with kindness, compassion and with your wellbeing first and foremost in mind in the skilled hands of Dr. Alexander and his staff.
