Post op on day 6
roxie70April 6, 2016
I went in today for my post op and learned that I had implants measuring 400cc in my right and 380 in my left breast. I had no idea and I blame myself for not learning more about the procedure beforehand. I would never have gone that big! My own fault.
Anyway, all seems to be well and I am hoping for a little bit of perking up, but if not I am still a happy camper!
I would love to hear from others and their healing process.
Thank god for this site and giving me the courage to follow through with my desire to be back to my somewhat old and natural self!

Mine have been out a week and a day. Last night was the first I slept w/o bandages. I put on a very thin cotton vest undershirt and a soft, stretch bra over that and slept very well. I had small silicone implants for almost 35 years and had been a AA before surgery and a full B cup now and look just fine and so very glad they are out.

Day after surgery
roxie70April 1, 2016
I slept well last night, in my own bed and even laid on my sides.
The incision is the only part that slightly aches, but not bad. I even opted away from the Tylenol with codiene, and used plain Tylenol, and only a couple. I think I may even not use anything from here on out.
The girls look pretty sad though. I do have tissue, but it's hanging low!
I put on a sweater today and am definitely not filling it out as I used to. I am still happy with my decision and even though my results aren't as good as I wished for, such is life and I will move forward with a better peace of mind, knowing I will be fine.
I noticed others that had the same look as mine, and wonder how they turned out after a few months or more.

Wow, you look awesome! Sure don't look almost 60!!! Your skin is beautiful and looks like you will heal up better then fine. Did you have the capsule removed as well?
April 1, 2016
Thank you and I did not have the capsules removed.
I noticed in your story that you have some itching too. For the past couple of years I have had the same thing with my left breast. Itchiness on the inside part and up to my nipple. I also had saline, but under muscle. I am hoping that will go away, but it's only been one day!
My doctor drained them and then removed them.

Mine are on top of muscle behind breast tissue. My ps would like to drain and wait at least two weeks before removing. They offer lift and/or fat transfer. So confusing, but exciting. This itching is annoying.

He drain mine while I was under and then removed them at that time.
They don't look any different and am hoping for a little something, but I am happy that I did it and can't stop feeling how soft and warm and squishy they are.
Going in for my post op appointment tomorrow, then bra shopping, which I am not looking forward to, but want out of this post op bra, they put me in.

From what I have seen on her 'sad' is the usual at this point post op. There is lots of change to come over the next weeks and months. Take it easy with your recovery :)

You look good considering your photo was taken on day of explant. Give it time its early days but you've made a really promising start. x
