Its been a week and im feeling alright. Still no regrets about the explant. Im starting to sleep on my side. The skin was very soft and wrinkly the first couple of days, i would say that by day 4 it improved a lot and by now its almost as tight as it was before explant. As for the fullness they were like pancakes till about the third day, at day four they were a little perkier exept at the top, but now at a week i feel like that has improved a tad bit...hopefully that keeps improving...so over all im happy

You look so good butterfly88 and you were so smart in not having those implants in very long. You look AMAZING! Thank you for sharing your pixs and for the updates.
Awesome result!
I think when you get breasts implants it is a definite adjustment. For me I realized that I should of just accepted what I had because there is no real fix. I believe it is living on the edge to get breasts implants. It is a desperation. You know what you should do is put on that pink shirt and a push up bra like you showed before the augmentation and see if your boobs look the same as that pic...if so.....I'd say you're a winner in the situation and that your cleavage looks wonderful! We're not meant to broadcast our bodies but media makes us feel that way, its a lot of pressure and a lot of BS that is an illusion like you were saying. I'm happy for your results but wonder if an internal bra/lift would of helped your dissatisfaction with upper pole and nipple position? I see there is a dr. hordensky in texas who does a special lift, i wonder if you could find a dr. who does that technique and pursue something of an internal bra. Or just be happy where you're at.
Yes you are totaly right...my upper pole is starting to fill up a lil more and yes the push up bra give me almost the same clev as the pic your saying. Im sure in a couple of weeks ill look exactly like that again. As for the internal lift i will look into it...but well see it really sucks having to spend twice as much because of the mistake ive made
Wow I read all your story. It's crazy how you say you did it for the wrong reasons and then you regretted fact that you did it and now you kind of want to order wish they were a little bigger.Don't feel bad for thinking that way all girls have insecurities
Your amazing. I'm having the same problem. I am almost 2 weeks out post op and I want them out. I'm meeting with my PS to talk about my options. I feel so stupid about getting them and wish o never spent so much money on it.

Ive been thinking..

Ive been thinking that maybe i shouldve just replaced with a smaller implant. Im so happy with my size i just wish i had a little more fullnes at the top. I used to dream of being a size d before breast aug but now i love being a b and would never change that but i have zero upper pole..i would be totaly happy with just one or two cm more lol. I feel like the upper pole is never going to fluff. It hasnt even been a week but i dont know what to think..i dont even remember if i had that extra cm of the upper part before breast aug and i dont want to go to my original surgeon n ask for my before pics because i already explanted with someone else. I guess i need to give it time but its just so hard

Wow! You look great for the first days out! Honestly, your top will fill out. Mine looked way worse than yours and are now back to pre-aug size and shape. I first started to notice a difference after a week or two and it was a slow process but it does happen. I think about six weeks but then even now I'm still seeing some subtle changes. (I have a mole on my upper pole so I can see how it's moved). It's perfectly normal to feel bummed about the initial aug when you're waiting to fill out. It's all part of the journey I'm afraid. x
maybe you can see some surgeons about fat transfer to the breasts... I've just done this procedure, and am so happy with the results. I will be posting current photos soon.... but this website has a lot of reviews on fat transfer to breasts. http://www.realself.com/search/results?gsc.q=fat%20transfer%20breast click on the top where it says "reviews"
