I am scheduled to have an explant and breast lift this Friday, 2/20/15. I have had huge silicone implants for 23 years and I've been unknowingly walking around with bilateral ruptures. I am very excited, very confident about this upcoming procedure. 58 years old, overweight, glad to be free soon. I am so looking forward to being able to see my stomach again, fat as it may be. I have absolutely no qualms about this. I am simply posting to help any other woman world wide who looks at this site as I have for months to obtain encouragement and education on this whole process. Wish me well. I would love to hear from any of you. I will also post some pre op pictures this afternoon.

Congratulations!, and Good Luck, too!. I'm in San Antonio, also have implants 20+ years, and I'm 53 and fat, too! LOL (I quit smoking 15 years ago, and packed on 60 lbs.) I am trying really hard to lose a little weight before having the explant and lift later this spring. But, even if I don't, and my stomach winds up sticking out further than my boobs, so what?! I dream of the day I can wear clothes that don't strain at the buttons because of these plastic udders I have now! You go, girl! I wish you all the best, and will say a little prayer for you Friday morning. Keep us posted!

Absolutely agree with you! I am only concerned with recovery since I do not spring back like I did when I was a spring chicken! Tomorrow I clean house and make chicken soup and Friday's the day! Thank you for the good wishes...

Thank you for sharing your journey! I've seen lots of explants here and it's amazing how the breasts adhere to the chest and actually lift and fluff over time. It's the implants that sag! Have you considered waiting to see how your breasts do before the mastopexy? Check out some reviews. I have 600cc implants and cannot wait to get them out. I have to be patient as it won't be for another month. All the best to you!

Ooops! Congrats! I see you've just had your surgery! I'm sure you will be so happy. Can't wait to see you one the lighter side.

Hi, could you please show post-op. I know it's weird to ask a woman to show her breasts on internet, but I am your age and am your size (yuck) and I am having mine out without a lift in three weeks. I am afraid I am going to end up with teabags. How do they look so far. I am scared. Thanks

Your surgery was yesterday, how did it go? I had my explant in Dallas 9 months ago. I was 59 yrs young. Dr melmed sent these 30 yr old yellow silicone implants home with me. They were leaching yellow gunk into my system.....No wonder I was getting really sick. I pray all went well and for your speedy recovery! God bless. Laneie

Thank you! Mine went fine - going today to have my drains removed. Smooth sailing so far. That 'yellow gunk' looked like soft scrambled eggs to me. I swear I have had a chronic cough for at least 3 years and I don't think I've coughed once since surgery. Coincidence? Hope you're doing well and sending good vibes out to you too!

You look great. How difficult was the surgery? Did you like Dr. Perry? Did you try other doctors before choosing? And was the procedure done at a hospital? Thank you.

Good luck & keep us updated! Do you know what size cc's they are? I bet you will feel so much better having all that weight lifted off your chest.

I am with you sister. I too am planning the same surgery in the near future. We look like twins. I can't wait to not feel sweat drip beneath them. Excited for you. God bless and good luck.

Funny! I can't wait to not have to tuck kleenex under them to sop up that sweat! When do you have yours done?

Surgery tomorrow

cynstonesFebruary 20, 2015

Hello, all you folks out there. Surgery is tomorrow. I have gotten my preop calls from both the surgeon and the anesthesiologist. I am going to follow all the surgeon's rules to the letter no matter what other doctors or women think or have advised. He is my surgeon and I trust him to do right by me as best he can. Surgery isn't till noon. I do know I will not be one of the energetic bunnies that hop out of recovery and snap selfies to post (and more power to you guys). I will be happy to be home and quiet for the first couple of days. Thanks again for good wishes!
