Tuberous Breast - 600cc Saline Sub Muscular - 2 Sets of Implants Since '99 - Now Gone, Removed!

Oh, I forgot to mention that you look fabulous....

Hi ufgator - They did an excellent job on both of my surgeries. LOVE the doctor, but for me I don't like them because they are so heavy. I like to lift weights and want to get into some cross fit type activity, but every time I jump its uncomfortable. The implants are so large that they go way out to the sides of my body. They are huge and a constant source of unwanted attention. I have a moderate profile implant, yes. I feel heavier than I am because the implants make me feel husky and I tend to wear clothing to cover them up somewhat, thus making you look even bigger. The right implant is sliding into my armpit when I lay down. This happened with my first implants, which were much smaller due to wear/tear and a really active lifestyle. They had to rebuild that capsule and then I went up in size and they told me this is HIGHLY likely to happen again due to the size of the implants and my body. I want them out lastly because my back and neck are always hurting, probably because of my posture as I tend to not want to put my shoulders back because it feels like my breasts look EVEN larger when I do. I work with all men, so... I got married and my husband is so supportive. He just wants me to be comfortable and happy. I'm nervous too because some of my closest peeps are concerned if I get them out I won't be happy and will want smaller ones put in. I'd like to try it, wait and see. Worst case, you can always have them put back in since I'm leaving the capsules in. Best of luck to you! That's a tough decision and really comes down to how YOU want to look and feel and how they will or will not fit your lifestyle. You'll make the best decision for yourself :) I tried on several sizes (brought the bra in that I wanted to fit into during consult) along with a tank top and tried them all on. The Doctor advised against going so big...but :) Let me know how it goes please.

Thank you for the details. I am struggling with what to do. I need to post pics. I am for sure getting a revision. I live in Woodinville but am traveling to San Diego and having dr. Pousti do the revision. I love his work and I flew down to meet him. Fabulous man. I work in the medical field so don't want to draw attention to my chest so want to dress down for work but definitely want to fill out a bathing suit. Will keep you posted. Who are you going with for your surgeon?

Not sure on surgeon yet. Leaning towards the Avalon Clinic, Dr. Kenevan but not sure. Have 4 consults set up over the next month. Getting estimates of around $2,800 just for removal. To do removal and revision, may be more like $5,500 (what I paid last time). Seems SO high just to take them out. Good luck deciding :)

Hello ufgator, I wanted to share my experience with you of my 400cc implants under the muscle... I am shorter than you are (4'9") and I'm currently overweight ( 140 pounds), I am 47 years old and have had my implants for 12 years. For the first couple of years I loved my large 36-38 DD ( sometimes DDD) however the last 1-2 years I cannot stand being this huge! They don't fit my body and it makes me look even fatter and clothes never seem to fit correctly. I am making the decision to remove my implants and go with a lift. ( BTW, you might want to think about getting a lift if you do go larger, because trust me, over time gravity WILL pull them down.) Knowing what I know today I would have gotten a lift when I had my BA but I was too vain and didn't want the scars. My surgeon recommended it, but I declined. For a couple of years I actually was happy that I didn't lift because it made my breast look REALLY natural. They had a nice hang to them.. Anyway, last week I went in for a consultation with a surgeon and told her that I'm interested in explanting in two stages: 1) deflat the saline implant. 2) Have surgery to remove any scar tissue, ect and a lift. I'm choosing to not replace my implants. The surgeon deflated me in the same as the consultation. I'm stoked! I'm smaller and thus far I don't look deformed at all.

thank you for the response. I have 385cc and it really looks not much bigger than before..they are heavier and I worry about going too much bigger but have been so depressed about the lack of change as far as appearance. I am thinking he may not have to increase in size too much because closing the outer pockets might make them appear larger. how cool that you could be deflated that same day!!! I don't need a lift as I was really tiny before hand but have a lot of tissue or FAT. Being short is hard because 5 pounds can be a huge difference.

I m 5'3, been 32-34DD since 11yrs old, daughters are same builds and sizes weighing 120-125lbs and pretty fit. In 2006, after 3 kids, 120 lbs, I was still a fuller D, yet fell out of my swim suits when I bent over, Hated this so much I had lift by Dr. Jackson in Puyallup. He did amazing job in February, HOWEVER, by summer, 6 mo later, they were back to falling out of my swim suits and bra's. Felt like total waste of money. Went in to Dr. Kenevan Avalon clinic, he did minor lipo on left side it was larger, and another lift, conviced me to go larger to "fill the looseness in my skin so this would not happen again. Assured me another lift would take off another size, putting me down to a C and a lift with lipo would just fill the space tighter and look amazing. I agreed, 2007, got a lift and 600cc sm round mod plus saline under muscle. At first I thought it was just the swelling, but they were huge. It looks amazing, everyone loves them says its perfect on me, It was a 32G..... Everyone says they are beautiful and look like I did before kids ( a 34DD ) not many know I even have implants again, as my daughters and family are all large breasted shorter women. (except when I work out too much or lose too much weight) Its now 2015, 8 yrs later, I am 47, much older and thicker, weight 140 now, and a 34HHH, I am going in for revision soon, with another lift, not planning for any lift as I agree with HappyFree they have hindered my exercising, and definitely effected my back, neck and body overall health. I do believe they have contributed to my ability to work out as much as I use to and I WANT them out. Am considering going back to Dr. Kenevan, so let me know if you are happy with his work IF You use him. He did a great job last time, I just don't what them so BIG.... and its time to revise after 8yrs. You look great by the way. ;O) But I too understand about the weight. Tell people its like a 2L bottle of water on your chest pulling at your neck and back. That's what Dr. Kevevan told my spouse they weighed. PS> tell me what he charges you to revise ;O)

I will update you after my consult and decision for sure! Dr. K isn't practicing anymore, so it would be a consult with Dr. Goldflies. The date is set for my consult on 5/11/15. I'll post an update on cost, etc then. I also found a GREAT PS in Portland where I live that I may want to choose, Dr. DeMars. I LOVE Dr. Kenevan and Dr. Eckland, they are great and have done 2 of my BA's and several of my friends/family. They even sent me flowers once for all the referrals - HA! How do you explain that one when your PS is sending you flowers!! Great people there!

A couple of friends went to Dr. Goldflies, she wasnt happy. Don't know all the details, just that they wernt as happy as those of us with Dr. K. I saw some of hhis work, but thought maybe it was my being prejudice wanting Dr. K as he's done several friends too. Dr Jackson was great too but he retired too. His partner, I heard the same thing as Goldflies, meaning not as good of reviews by friends who had his work done. He took over Dr. Stanley Jackson's patients when he retired. I am looking at another 10k in surgery after 1 expensive lift, then lift and implants, I have spent a lot of money, lol, So this last part needs to be good for many years to come ;O) Good Luck to you, Keep posting, my work may not allow me to get surgery til Sept. but I'm trying for next month. Your input may sway me ;O) Again, Best of luck to you. ;O)

Oh, that is SO very helpful! Thank you for letting me know! I actually think I may want to cancel my consult now with Dr. Goldflies, I don't like hearing that at all. I can't seem to find much out about him at all. Yikes. I'll keep you posted! Good luck to you too!!
