37 days deflated

  • 5 Oct 2017
My implants have been deflated for 37 days so far. My PS wants to see me on Nov. 2nd. I'm supposed to give him my decision (explant & lift or explant only) on that date. In the meantime, I have consults set with two other plastic surgeons. I went with the first doctor I saw for my breast augmentation. I don't want to make anymore mistakes and I owe it to myself to meet other doctors.
Added pics from today. Sorry about the crappy lighting.

30 days deflated

  • 29 Sep 2017
They look like my pre-implant boobs. Maybe a little more sag but not much. Still on the fence about a lift.

Did this happen to anyone???

So today is day 5 after the deflation. Disappointed that I am a D-DD. I guess that's way better than G but I was hoping for a bit smaller. Anyway, the past couple days I've noticed some weird soreness in the upper pole area. It's not super painful, just a dull ache every now and then. Anyone have soreness in the upper pole area after explant or deflation??
Also, not much change since day 2...

2011 - Initial consult through last post op appointment, he was great, very upfront and honest about results and expectations. He will speak to you as many times as necessary before and after surgery. I feel his prices are a bit high but all the reviews I've seen are good ones. You get what you pay for I guess. I thought he did an amazing job. 2015 - Consult for explant options. He took a good amount of time reviewing all my options. We discussed straight removal of the implants, removal and lift no implants, removal and lift with new smaller implants, removal w/ fat grafting and in office deflation w/ final choice 3-4 months later. 2017- Made my decision but since it had been two years I had to come back for another consult. I decided on deflating in the office and waiting a few months to see if I would be happy without a lift. We talked briefly. I sort of got the feeling he was a little disappointed that I wanted them out. But that might be all in my head. I would be disappointed if I did a great job on someone and they wanted to get rid of them. I wish I wouldn't have waited 2 years to make a decision. His prices went up by almost $1,000 for just removal, nothing else! Overall, I feel he is a great doctor.
