WORTH IT$10,630
Hi I'm new to this site in 1992 I got Saline Implant over the muscle they are only 225CC, well through the years with weight gain I went from a full C to a DD, not happy. My Mom was always big breasted naturally guess it's a little genetics too. I have had a Full Tummy Tuck like 6 years ago very happy with that, but now with wanting a Explant /lift I'm feeling guilty about the money, does anyone else feel that way? I'm in Michigan and the cost is around 9,000 whoa , I guess my guilt is we bought a new house 5 yrs ago and it has a 1950's Kitchen and what women doesn't want a nice kitchen were gonna remodel and here I'm wanting to spend 9,000 of the money saved for it...HELP with your opinions!!!

If it helps you, I'm having an explant after only 9 months. I was very worried about the "wasting money" side of it, but I've come to the conclusion that my happiness is worth it. I so understand you when you speak about your new kitchen though... Maybe sit down and try to figure out a financial plan?xo

Thanks allot may my hubby says do it I'm the one that feels like I'm spending too much money, but your right my Happiness is worth it too!!

Can you just do the explant, and then do the lift (if you decide you need it) later? I'm doing that in August and the cost is $1200. Or do the whole thing, and hold off on the kitchen! I thought I needed a new kitchen, and then decided just to buy a new stove & I'm quite happy.

LOL just realized I responded to a very old post! So happy to see you went through with it!

I am explanting tomorrow at 10 am!!!! Forget the kitchen and get them out. I have CC that is so bad its drawing my right shoulder forward with severe back pain. It's all I can concentrate on the last weeks, I am so distracted at wanting these implants gone. I have spent 30K so far after rupture with the new silicones, replacement/re-lift, now explant with lift. I am done!

Hi magster3,
How are you doing?
Just sitting up in Hosp bed reading lots of explant story's as I've just comeback from having my implants out.
Wishing you all the very best. Xx
July 29, 2016
Hello day 5 now getting much better I love my new boobies they are a C and look beautiful. How about you how are you doing you just had it today wow girl good for you for being so alert to read Realself, I had to have more pain medication when I came out of recovery was real sore...wishing you the very best too it's a journey but well worth it...hugs!!

I'm ok just had a sandwich so feeling better already. So pleased you're happy and doing well.
I am obviously all bandaged up feeling like a Egyptian mummy at the mo- but a tad apprehensive as I'm yet to see results but just relived now I think. X
July 29, 2016
I'm sure you will love your results can I ask what size you were and what you think you are now???
July 29, 2016
Yes- I was a 32 A cup then went up to a C cup then 6 yrs ago the PS ( not this one) replaced with uplift 285cc implants.
I'm not at all sure what cup size I'll be-,I'm sad to say I think I have less breast tissue on left side and he thinks nipple will be lower on right!
Oh dear - all very confusing at this stage. Have just taken a pic in the loo - so will update.
Xx

Ok thank you. Got out of Hosp this morning. No pain, thankfully, but So difficult not doing much though. My husband had been brill- but. It's frustrating not being able to do stuff- even opening the fridge as its too heavy at the moment! Because I've got cross stitching of tissue to muscle I've to be really careful for a while.
Just had some fibrogel in a homemade smoothie to get me going if you know what I mean? Ha ha. Xx
July 31, 2016
Oh honey it's gets better I'm still sore too but as days go by its gets better & better. Yeah that does a number on your bowels all the medication . Hang in there sweetie I think I'm gonna post after pics tomorrow been waiting for all the swelling & bruising to get a little better don't wanna scare anyone...lol
