Not much change really but I'm feeling good about how they look. Obviously not as perky as I'd like but I am 54. Went for proper bra fitting today. Ended up with lovely little 34C. Shocked actually to be in c cup coming from a previous implant a cup. Guess we really do change over the years. So new pics here. I haven't compared to old yet but will see now the comparison. Steristrips off and feeling very little soreness. Almost normal

Went for followup today and the removed the tape. Just the steristrips now. Feel great. Tired by 3:30 but think that's ok. Doc said all looked good and in future if I wanted more fullness up top I could look into fat graft. Well see how I go. No rush for me at all. Unless something changes drastically or complications I can't imagine occur this has been a good experience. Back to walking with family today and teaching my son for about 2 hours. Worked for our company about an hour and a decent my doc appointment. So life almost totally back to normal and no pain. Doc said I could now sleep on my side and leave bra off at night. Think I'll start with leaving bra on and sleeping how I'm comfortable. Will graduate to sleeping without bra later????

I am a 54 yr old woman in Kelowna as well and having my implants taken out on Dec 8th but using Dr. Peterson who originally put them in. Havent put my profile up on here yet but thinking about it....nice to see someone local on here and hoping for a similar result but I have very large implants to have removed. Also thinking of doing a TT at the same time but still not too sure on that part due to the recovery process...Glad to see you are well on your way to full recovery :)

54, you look amazing!!!!! I'm thrilled to hear you're healing and feeling great! I'm 48, with 24 yr old sub peck 275 cc saline. 1 is deflated since September. I also told my teen about the surgery BC its been so emotional and disruptive to my family having to stress out about finding the best surgeon and which PS approach is best for me with limited researched based data\info to reference.
I've been through the ringer with researching the best approach for explant no implant replacement surgery. This web site is so helpful with the lack of reseacrch based data and mostly opinions of best surgery protocol for explants. II have no breast implant illness symptoms so a simple explant is best for me too. However; there's a few doctors out there who will go to extremes in surgery to prevent illnesses that aren't even medically founded. One consultation I had was with a surgeon who even wanted to take my lympth nodes out as a preventative measure which can cause severe problems later.
I'm scheduled for explant 11\23\15. No caps removed (unless PS is suspect when in), but I will have drains no lift. Maybe fat transfer later not sure.
Sorry to ramble, I will eventually post my story and pay it forward!
You're an inspiration!
Thx you for taking your time to post!
I'm in Georgia.
