Breast Implant Removal and Lift with No Replacement Implants - Greenville, SC

Four more days until I go in for surgery. I got breast implants when I was 22 in Sept 2004. I was a 36A and weighed 112lbs. I got 350cc in each breast and became a 36 C/D. I am now 30 and weigh 145lbs and now have 2 kids and my breast size is a 36DD. I am 5'1 and I feel like very top heavy. I can't weight to get the implants taken out and also get a lift. My surgeon told me he thinks I will be a B/C after the surgery. Which will be much better than a DD. I am very excited to get them taken out and can't remember how it feels to have normal size breasts. I will have general anesthesia which I have never had before. The costs above cover 5 visits. The consultation was very helpful and I spoke with Dr. Mcfadden and he went over everything and showed me before and after pictures of the surgeries he has preformed. The second visit was pre-op visit. During that time they explain everything that you ill need to know before surgery. They also give you your prescription to the medicines you will need to take the day before, during and after surgery. The nurses there are very helpful as well. The next appointments will be the surgery, day after surgery and 1 week post-op to take the stitches out. I will up date everyone soon and I will also make sure to post plenty of before and after pics as well.

I can't say I regret my implants completely. They looked amazing and I got them under the muscle. I did decide to go a cup size bigger at the very last minute. Only after having 2 kids and a huge weightloss and gain did they start to look droopy. I have a hard time finding dresses since I am top heavy. Most shirts don't fit me properly either. After having them for almost 8 years I am ready to get them taken out and going natural. I was only 22 when I got them and thought that it would help my self esteem. Now I am more confident and more comfortable in my own skin. I also wish I could go a jumping jack with out feeling like my breast implants are going to pop out of chest. Trying to do intense cardio is almost impossible. I told my surgeon the first thing I want to do after I heal from my surgery is to do a jumping jack with no pain. I have also noticed that big bigger boobs make you sweat in place you would not even think of. I wear a sports bra 24/7 since it's not even comfortable to wear regular bras.

I have 3 more days until surgery and I am very excited and a little nervous of course. I am currently taking Bromelain 3 days prior to surgery. I was told to take 2 pills 3 times a day 3 days before surgery and 1 week after surgery. Along with arnica after sugery for 1-2 weeks to help with healing and brusing. I am also prescibed oxycodone, an antibotic and a medicine to help with nausea. I currently take methimazole for my hyperthyroidism and I am not sure if it will effect any of the other percriptions I am supposed to take after surgery. I will make sure to talk it over with my doctor to make for sure.

I started taking my Bromelain today and will continue taking it for another week and a half. During my down time I have been obsessively looking at pictures of boobs on google image. I don't think I have ever looked at boobs so much before.

2 more days til surgery and I have been trying to catch up on all my school work and house cleaning to prepare for surgery. I even got a bed rest pillow with arms and a u shaped neck pillow as well. I decided to buy some special pillows since I am going to have to sleep on my back and I am a side sleeper all the way. To me laying on my back is what I consider to be the "wake" position.
