Push ups
Hi there, I am thinking about taking my saline implants out after 5 yrs. Do you know if your surgeon also did a capsulactomy at the time of the removal? Also, did you do it under local or general anesthesia? Thanks so much for your time

Pics

Looking the same. My boobs are actually bigger now. They've been streched. Wish I had before pics of them before. They were definitely smaller.

Lumps around incision site

Starting to massage around the incision site as it is lumpy under there. All is well other than that. Hope the lumps dissolve in time its been 1 month 5 days post explant. I'm still very sore. I can't jog or bounce up and down. Its especially difficult during period time as my boobs are sore 2 ways. I really will live when I can start jogging again!

I have those too, I think they're the internal stitches. Not sure how long they take to completely dissolve. But if you're worried about it you should contact your doctor. :)
Okay.
