It's been 3 months since my surgery and they are changing every month. I've started to work out again to retrain my muscle that was worked on and I feel much stronger today. I'm so happy I removed the implants and had dr feng work on them.

Hey! How are you? We haven't heard from you for a few months, so I thought I'd check in and ask for an update. It'd be great to hear from you again :)

Over two weeks now since the surgery. Feeling better each day and went bra shopping today at Victoria's Secret to get the basics. Store says I'm a 32c which is odd because I'm not a c cup. The 32b underwire is slightly too narrow and the 34b is to big. I know I'm not a full c cup but hey I'll take it! Feeling more like myself each day and I have no regrets about removing my implants.
Does anyone know foods that increase breast size? Do high estrogen foods work?

Again, you look perfect! I'm also having some weirdness with bra sizing. I didn't find it this difficult to fit into my correct size with implants (difficult to hide them, but not difficult to find a bra!). I technically measure a 30D, but 30's are so tight that I wear a 32 and size down in the cup, so a 32C.
Anyway, I have read a few things in my research before the explant that women have mentioned: Great Lakes gelatin, pueraria mirifica, fenugreek, and fennel tea. I used to use fenugreek to help boost milk production when I was breastfeeding, so I'm not sure what it would do when you're not lactating. I haven't tried any of the above -- it's just what I've read.

Wow. I'm impressed you can wear a bra. I'm 6 weeks out and can't wear one for even a minute! It doesn't hurt your incisions?
December 16, 2015
My bras feel fine. The incisions are healing well. I picked up the scar cream by Obagi at dr Feng's clinic- it works very well. Im also loading my body with fresh green juices (no fruit) that seem to help w my skin all over. I find the bra helps them shape up to be more perky. The sports bra was just compressing them down and since I've switched to a bra and started working out they are fluffing bit by bit. I'm also using natural, organic, jojoba oils, collegen powder and hyloronic acid supplements. Anything that will snap them back! What has dr feng said about your incision mark location? I'm sorry to hear that Your journey is taking longer. Please move around, eat well, and meditate to help your body heal.

She says to wait and see. I have had a yoga/meditation practice for many years and eat very clean all organic foods. My body was just so compromised in the first place. I really don' understand the bra thing! I'm at 6 weeks and still can' tout one on. My incisions healed very quickly (on the surface) but are very lumpy and tender. I also have internal hamatomas all around the incisions sight and breast area, especially on the sides - right where the bras press! I wish I could wear one for a little support (minus the smashing of the sports bras), but theres no way. Glad you are healing so wonderfully, that's very nice I'm sure.

I am actually 3 weeks post and I started wearing a bra after 2 weeks. I think it really depends on the bra though. I noticed that any bra with underwire or lift was very uncomfortable even just trying it on for a second. I was able to find a bra without any lift or underwire but with some padding to give me shape while I recover...way better than wearing a sports bra. I think my breasts started fluffing more after I switched too.

Victoria Secret make their bras to make you feel like you have more breast (to make you better about your self) same thing happens to me. That is their SECRET...

You look amazing! I am saving to have mine taken out this year. I had a lot of excess skin & little breast tissue when I had mine done almost 8 years ago so I will certainly need an uplift. I'm hoping they look like this once they are done! Well done for going ahead with it & best of luck!

Week two update.
fashionplasticDecember 9, 2015
Update shots. Feeling better day by day. Left scar is healing slower than the right side. Size is small but happy they are me :)
I've been advised that I can move to an underwire bra now, and start working out in a week.
my nipple area is incredible sensitive :( when does that go away?

thank you so much for sharing your experience your results look wonderful - i have been searching for months on first hand accounts on removal. you are a beautiful soul both inside and out. keep us gals on the fence about explantation updated!
December 10, 2015
I'm only two weeks out and explanting is the best decision I've ever made. Please do your research on reputable, specialized doctors and go with the best.
December 9, 2015
Fantastic outcome and no bruising ....so lucky.... :)
You look great, enjoy the new natural you :)

So great... Can I ask, what did she do for the muscle repair & did you have distortion or anything before explant? Curious because I'm thinking of going to Dr. Feng for muscle repair. I have muscle distortion after my explant. My muscles issues were not really addressed and was told they would just go back to normal once the implants were out, which isn't the case. But you look amazing, such a great result! congrats!!!
December 10, 2015
Thank you so much for the compliments. I was bottoming out on both sides :( my right side more than my left. My muscles were distorted and dr feng had to repair them. I had a faint line on my right breast from the implant bottoming. It is completely gone after muscle repair. Dr feng is a very caring and extremely talented surgeon. I had no doubt you'd be happy w her.
I haven't used my muscles much yet but so far they don't distort.

You look fantastic! Those incisions are so tight(not sure if thats the wrong word?) They look like they are smooth and not raised. I think they'll heal very well!
We're you experiencing any health issues before explanation? How do you feel now?

Dr feng did an amazing job on the stitches. They are healing with slight scabs right now, and not raised.
I was experiencing brain fog, memory loss. No other major symptoms. I have noticed a difference in level of energy. So much more spunk without implants. Even though I'm flat I'm happy I have my natural life back.

Woow ! You are perfect ! Your breasts seems to have fluffed a lit bit no ?
December 11, 2015
They have fluffed a bit since the ace wrap came off. From profile it seems that the left side is concaved slightly. the top part of my breast is still flat and not filling out bras but it's getting better marginally everyday !
But I would love to know how your muscles feel working out now? I'm planning on having the procedure done soon & have been planning a trip this summer. Im nervous about recovery time & my ability to do things while on the trip... How soon was it that you felt like you could do most things? I remember you said you were cleared for working out after like 3 weeks?
