Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Where to begin...I HAVE MISSED YOU ALL! I've read some of your great updates and my oh my, what a wonderful time it is ;)
As for myself, my breasts have changed very little, nevertheless, some changes ;) Feeling a bit more lighter and I LOVE it!!! I'm turning 64 years old next Saturday and I wanted to somehow let you ladies know, that I have you on my mind! Having explanted is one of the best thing I did for my physical and emotional health.
It was staged for me in my next journey in life...my doctor gave me an almost "clean bill of health" in my last physical last October, 2015 and gave me the reason for not acing it: my bone density test, an X-Ray done on my hips/lower spine came back with results of advanced osteoporosis! "I said, whaaaaat? Then, I smiled and thought, I got this, I have a great support system...God has my back on this too! I have discussed this news extensively with my doctor and husband (an RD/Cert.Health/Wellness/CPT) For me, with my healthy lifestyle, genetics came up to the top of the answer to our whys! The good part is that I have avoided fractures and now I am heavily researching and modifying my exercises and meal planning in high hopes, to improve my bone health. Informing my family, particularly my daughters and nieces of my diagnosis is of great family health data, if they choose, to include into their future healthy lifestyle choices/planning!
Now, moving on to photos update. As you can see, change is small. I forgot to take pictures of my incisions so I will include them on my next post! I will continue to read your reviews/updates and please know that you are all in my prayers and sending my sweet thoughts your way <3

3-months post...missed you ALL!
A great big HELLO to all my RS friends! I still read all your reviews ;) I owe a big gratitude to you who have come before my journey to explant, and have contributed so much in giving me the courage to do the same! So here I am, paying it forward with much prayers and hope that my experience would help someone out there who is battling the decision to explant!
An update: I am on a serious workout plan which now includes strengthening my bone health! My recent diagnosis of osteoporosis has only helped me to pursue and include exercises that would avoid any fractures. I am soooooo joyful that I am now implants free! Being free from all the pains and fears of having my implants have given me a focus on this next (my life's) journey of improving my overall health. We never know "what is next," right?
I am posting some pictures just taken today and sharing a bra and helpful scar treatments too!
I have been trying on some bras to no success, until, I went to Marshall's and found one for under $10, YAY! This BALI bra is sooooo comfy, I love it! It lifts and shapes my now size 34 A !!! What do you think?
The scar away gel is great! It is helping with the thinning of my scars, slow but working! As for my fave recent find; drum rolllllllllll...Melamin, skin bleaching/correcting creme. I actually started to use this creme on my face per my PS' assistant and I am totally in love with how my facial skin reacted so well with it ;) It has lighted my sun-damaged dark spots. My PS recommended this creme too for both my rash and incision scarring and it is working!!! Note: if you are interested, please check with your doctor/PS before using any of these treatments!
I will try and post an update next month...at the least, in my 6-months post ;)
Sweet blessings to YOU ;)

8+ weeks-post
Still pinching myself to make sure that I am really on this side of my journey; explanted! I have been back to ALL my old schedule with life, including work, house-repairs, exercising, church, family, and more of lovely times with the grand-kids ;) I do stop by everyday and read everybody's updates here my RS friends. And, my thoughts and prayers are all with you ;) It is my hope that my journey has helped you in your decision to explant. Now, to my update...I have lost some weight, hummmm about 6, maybe 7 pounds. I believe it is this weight loss that I have stop "fluffing." If I can only tell where my body fat could go, then, maybe my upper pole would fill in! Wishing on...here are some pics. I haven't had time to place my first week's post to these pics so that you could see the improvements! Hopefully, next time. Another pic of me in a skirt and tank. I love the slim-look of my chest. I seem to see myself looking a few years younger...hahaha, wishing on! Sweet thoughts to all who are here ;)
