WORTH IT$7,200

I am 33 years old and ive have my 360 cc saline implants for 7 1/2 years. I was a 34 B without implants and went up to a 34D after the implants. I was only 130 lbs at the time that I got them and now I am 165 36D. I also breastfed my baby about a year ago. So my breast have gone thru changes. I had a mommogram and 2 ultrasounds andt everything is normal. So I decided to go see a Plastic Surgeon and ask for his opinion. He said he could feel the implant where I have the pain and that I might have scar tissue. He is removing my implants and any scar tissue I may have. He suggested I get a lift or new implants but I would much rather wait. I want to see if my discomfort goes away by removing the implants. And as far as a lift I want to wait until I finish having kids. Im very worried of how my breast will look after. But making sure im healthy is the most important to me.

I agree, health comes first! I sure hope removing your implants alleviates your pain. Please keep us posted.

I have pain in my left breast and I now know that it has ruptured don't know how long it has been going on. I have had pain off and on in that breast for at least 6 months now. At first I thought it was hormones due to my age now, of course, I think it was something else all together. I don't know what a cc would feel like or that that caused my rupture but maybe that is what I was feeling. I will be finding out soon enough I guess. Your health is what is most important and since you are planning more children it probably is best to wait till all that is over before you decide to get any more done. I am 51 and no more kids and am at a different stage in life so I am just going to be done with this upcoming surgery. I have not made my final decision on a lift or not yet. All the best to you and keep us posted!!

I ended up getting surgery yesterday, instead of Thursday. I decided to get a lollipop breast lift. I just wanted to get over with this and avoid another surgery in the future. I'm all bandaged up I won't see what I look like until Tuesday. I feel sore in pain but tolerable. I will post pictures soon.

It's been 4 days since explant and breast lift. My dressings were removed yesterday. Doctor says things look good. I see my breast dented but I was told it takes time for them to take their natural form. The bottom of my both breast needs to heel. The skin looks like it has a fold. It was to avoid cutting. We are hoping it sticks back to where it belongs. As far as pain I'm a bit sore. But feeling much better.
