9 Year Old Implants Removed with Lift - Oakville, ON
ORIGINAL POST
So I guess you can say my story started 9 years...
WORTH IT$7,500
So I guess you can say my story started 9 years ago. I was 25 years old and had been thinking for a long time that I wanted to get my breasts "fixed" as I had very saggy c-cup boobs. After MUCH contemplating I decided to go and see a plastic surgeon to see what could be done about them. I was given a recommendation through a mutual friend to see Dr. Yazdanfar at the Toronto Cosmetic Clinic. For those who haven't heard, Dr Yazdanfar was the surgeon who had her medical license removed b/c she was not a licensed plastic surgeon, she was just a regular family physician who was performing major surgery in her own clinic and one of her patients died on her table. Keep in mind that I only found this out about 3 years after I had my surgery. If she was a real plastic surgeon then she probably would have told me that I should get a lift not implants. But being naive I took her advice and got implants which took me from a small c-cup to an e-cup! I was absolutely horrified. I had basically taken one insecurity and traded it for another. I now had to get my clothes custom fitted and don't even get me started on the costs of my bra's to fit these "monster boobs". No matter what I did I couldn't hide these things. Fast forward 8 years, I'm now married and have gained 50lbs from my pregnancy so my boobs are now an f-cup. It was at this time that I had reached my breaking point. My back was killing me all the time, I was having horrible headaches and my posture was really bad. That's when I decided I had to make a change so I started to eat better and work out regularly. I have now lost 30lbs and barely anyone has noticed as I am still wearing loose clothing to hide my breasts. I'm running regularly too now and having to wear tight compressions bras is so uncomfortable! Ugh, I just hate these horrible things. I've gone ahead and booked a consultation with a real plastic surgeon that was recommended to me by my current family physician. Her name is Dr. Julie Khannan of the ICLS clinic located in Oakville, Ontario and my appointment is on May 3rd. I am just hoping that she can help fix a mistake that I made manny years ago.

Glad to hear your story. How scary to put ur trust, ur body,ur health and worth into someone that isn't even certified. It's very scary to have to go thru another surgery as I will be in August. Same boat over here, it's so uncomfortable to exercise and run. I can't wait to be my self again. We all make silly on the spot decisions, but in the end we can fix them in time. Thanks for sharing

I'm a 34H, 110 pounds and 5'4. I can totally relate! It's such a horrible feeling to have your body altered that way. I'm so happy to see you had them removed and are doing well now! Best wishes! :)

Boy I remember those days- being top heavy and not being able to find a dress that isn't to bust tight, or baggy all over...
Same with larger bras cost a fortune ! My story's to long and to complicated to repeat but your welcome to read my post. I had explant survey yesterday and although I'm pretty weak right now (auto immune) I'm very very happy the implants and capsules are gone- I was checked out today and wrapped up tight with drains but what I saw after I was sooooo happy! My natural breast back again- my NEW doc also did great job. Dr Raad Taki in Tucson AZ. He took extra effort to stitch up muscle repair and fir safety reasons burned out a 1/2 dollar size capsule that was going diwn in my rib cage. To much bleeding to chase and risk of puncturing a lung so he did next best thing. He stitched up some other tissue to give better shape and I couldn't be happier. Hopful my lupus, sjogrens calm down now. I already using less eye drops and mouth gel.. Sjogerns drys the whole body out- painful auto immune started 3 1/2 yr ago with implants. It's playing Russian roulett not knowing who will be effected badly by implants. I was unlucky one. You look great!!!! Healthy!!!

You look wonderful! And the fullness after surgery before reading that you had no implant replacement- I was surprised! They look great! I hope to be having the same surgery soon.

I have to do it.. Just a matter of when. I really want to find the best surgeon I can do give me a chance of having a decent outcome. So many problems w implants- they have to go. One is the made me a 34H cup (I asked to be a D again, I was deflated after stopping birth control) and severe lateral displacement deformities. I'm so so uncomfortable in my own skin, both physically and aesthetically- they are destroying my back/neck! I had them placed 1.5 yrs ago. I have a donut lift already- which looks terrible- so I want to go all the way and do a vertical lift when they are removed to get rid of extra skin and hopefully give me a nice shape, get rid of sutures around nipples. I do look forward to being free, but I'm so afraid of the scarring. Afraid I ruined my breasts w the first surgery and they will never look "normal" again. Idk. I sure wish I could go back in time and have my preimplant breasts back! I thought they were bad I had no idea lol!
Can you post updated photos of your incisions? How are you feeling about the scaring now?
