Where to start. I got my implants put in under the muscle as soon as I turned 18. Ever since I was 15 I always wanted implants. For 3 years I was always online researching breast augmentation and always being envious of woman with large breasts and self conscious of my small boobies. I thought implants looked better than real breasts! Wow how that has changed. My doctor did a truly wonderful job. I believe I got the best possible outcome. They look and feel real. I loved my implants for the past 4 years. I always said it was the best thing I ever did for myself. Ha!! The past year I have become very health conscious and have gained so much self love and awareness. For my mind, body and soul. I started thinking about getting the removed and found this site and it inspired me even more to get these things removed! I am going to the same doctor who put them in since he did great the first time. He was very pleased with the results of the augmentation and was surprised I wanted them removed but he was understanding and supportive of my decision because he could see I did my research and made up my mind. We are doing it under local with twilight anesthia to cut the costs for me. The office is an accredited surgery center so that is where it will be done. He will be taking out the capsule if necessary. He said if anything he might only need to take out the bottom of the capsule. I am excited and nervous! I have been looking at cute little tops and can't wait to be able to fit into them. It was a mistake getting breast implants at such a young age. But I accept it and take it as a learning experience. :) so excited to have my natural boobies! But also nervous!! Thanks for sharing all of your stories!!

Can i please ask you if you see any reduction of the natural breast tissue after removal? I was inititally fullA/small B and now i am small A. I m only few days post op, maybe they ll bounch back?

I have not had the procedure yet. I will be getting it on the 17th and will update with my results when I do!

Bibikackmail the reduction may be due to implants pressing your natural tissue flat...I think after 6 months your body with let the fat tissue expand again...if u had capsules removed...sometimes they have to removed breast tissue also...

Getting a little nervous

LovelyCPM
As the day gets closer I am getting more and more nervous. My hope is that it's not too much of a shock. My doctor claims that it won't be and that I have a good amount of breast tissue. They have definitely grown since my initial implant surgery. Before my implants I was a small b. I am now a 34dd in VS bras. I keep looking back at old pictures of my pre implant breasts and I like the way they look. I have faith that they will look even better than before. ;)
