I had my drains removed on Monday. Easy no pain. Went back to work on Monday. I have no pain and little bruising due to taking the arnica. No bruise on hand from IV! All in all I am doing great. I have noticed a big change in my breast. The tissue under each is getting fuller each day it is hard to see in the pics. My PS said they r fluffing. Also if they r not full as I would like I can come in for a fat transfer. They will take it out of my belly ( yeah!) and add to my breast. I am not worried. I think they will fluff and be fine. So nice not to have those heavy balls in my chest. Went to the gym today and walked on the treadmill. The worst is behind me thank u to all the women on this site. U all have helped me so much. Before I found this site I was so upset as my PS told me basically I as crazy for wanting them out hearing all of your stories gave me the courage to go through with the surgery. No regrets sooooo happy!!!!????

Hi, I had mine removed 9/16/16. Recovery was not too bad. I admire you for following your heart and going through with the removal surgery. Remember our bodies need a few months to heal. Close to 1 year. So be patient and love them just the way they are. We are beautiful and don't need plastic surgery. Wish I would've known that before I ever had mine done. God Bless you and best of luck.

I got mine out 6 months ago and am so happy with my decision. Wish I had them removed years ago - now trying to get 2 nieces to realize they have timebombs in their chests.

Have had a headache since Tuesday night. Developed into a migraine. Took meds and it went away but came bk last night. The headache has been the worst part. I am not in pain just discomfort. The drains r a pain in the butt Went bk to PS yesterday and he said all looks good. Keep drains in a week ????. Not draining much now. So I think I will probably get them out sooner. Waiting on a call bk from PS regarding drains and how to milk them. Feeling better today. Took a shower finally. Put make up on and may go out if my headache does not come bk. Saw them for the first time today. ????. They look terrible. The implant was being pushed down by the capsule and caused an indention. PS said it would fluff and look fine. I hope so. I don't have the indention like most at the top of my breast. So that is good. Feeling pretty positive. So good not to have the heavy balls on my chest! So happy. No regrets!!

Congratulations!!! You are in the other side!!! You are so brave, well done!! I am sure all will settle down nicely after couple of weeks :)

My right one looks the same as yours. I saw my ps today. My drains have to be in for at least another 5 days! My surgeon is going to do another surgery in about six weeks and cut out some of the scar tissue. She will lift them a little if needed!! I'm feeling about the same as you recovery wise! We will keep in touch! Best wishes for a speedy recovery. I'll keep you in my prayers!

How are you feeling now??? Are your breasts looking any different?
September 17, 2016
Hi everything looks the same. Feeling much better. Not much coming out of drains so hope to get them out on Monday. Still staying positive how r your looking. Any changes

I look the same too. I still have my drains and today is day 8 post op. I go back again on Tuesday hopefully they come out then! My ps says that it's scar tissue from my first areola incision. She is going to try to remove it in about 6 weeks and do a small lift. Hate the thought of another surgery.
