Breast Implant Removal/Ruptured/lolipop Lift and One Breast Reduced

WORTH IT
I chose Dr. Mussat after many years of research. I have wanted this done since 2011. THIS website helped me make my decision, as that breast implant illness group on facebook was telling me NOT to go to her. I left it because they were trying to bully me into choosing another DR, which I did not want to based on a comparison to Mussat's amazing work.. That facebook group named after a woman to give her attention asks for cash from it's members. NO facebook group needs a dime, so avoid them completely and stick with reviews and this website!!
Anyway, My mother in-law is a nurse of 40 years and I sent her a pic of my breast now, even all new and bandaged and she was very impressed with Dr Mussat's work. I am SO glad she was able to keep my ruptured implant contained when removing it (en bloc). It was also nice to finally have the validation that I had a rupture. I always knew it. I developed a hematoma (it happens) and needed a second surgery the same day, and she was on it. She prescribed me xanax for the night prior to surgery and the morning of. I slept 6 entire hours pre-op, which I have NEVER done because of nerves in the past...and I was able to go to the hospital and be about 60% LESS anxious and freaking out than I had during my last surgery (myomectomy). I cannot tell you how much better it is to have something that helps you relax before you hack off your boobies! I am anti taking pills unless I need to, but question my previous Dr's on not helping me out a little bit in terms of freaking out.
I cannot wait for 6 months to pass so I can see what I am left with. I am 2 weeks post op and they get better every day. So far, I can tell very skilled hands attempted to mold me back together again. i Highly recommend her for breast implant removal

Did you have the McGhan 153’s? I had those for 12 years. I was in a study, which was a joke. I was not informed they were removed from the market due to their high rupture rate. The last time I checked, the rupture rate was revised to 49%!!! I had my last set of implants removed without replacement in November 2019, and I’m much happier without them even though I’m a AAA cup size.

My surgery was the 6th. My breast I had double surgery on for the hematoma (left) is a bit wonky due to scar tissue. The rightbreast (I lost most of my real breast) looks adorable! I feel so much better physically and have high hopes my left breast will fall to its natural place over time.
My nipples look AMAZING now. mussat fixed all the scarring left by Dr Frank Ryan.

Hi, I had my explant Aug 6 and I have searched high and low for info about the scar on my right side...it is cut higher than the left breast, is way more painful and looks scooped out at the bottom (almost a half breast folded) the left breast is GORGEOUS and looks like a normal breast(actually not much before/after just not as full up top). Have you heard of this happening and if so where can I find info? I was sent home with no report, etc and when I saw the nurse the day after I had not seen them yet but I noticed she looked “uncomfortable “. One last thing, I thought I had smooth implants the last 20yrs...they are textured and I cannot rem if they are mentor or mcghan...one is kind of orange(the jacked up rt side one) the other a lil yellow. Were yours clear? Thank you so much and I am happy for you that you went with your gut and had a great experience:). I tried to join the FB group you mentioned but they would not allow me to join without making a “donation “ to provide the services; what services? FB is FREE! I do not call that helping women with bii which I def have. This sight has been my BEST resource for info and I appreciate all of you so much for sharing and helping the rest of us:).
Thanks for sharing your experience so far - it's great to read how you're getting on. I hope your recovery goes well, please feel free to update us anytime :)
