You look so amazing! ! I am so glad for you. Do you use some creams or something to help the tissue? I am 3 days post removal and my tissue is so loose. Before BA I have some tissue. ... I am afraid.

Thank you lady! Don't worry, when I was 3 days post op my skin was so loose. I felt a little worried too. When I layed down my breasts looked so loose and sad looking. It took a few months for them to really start forming up. Give it time! Be patient with your body. I saw in a previous comment you said you had just got them in a month prior as well? I really think especially since yours were in for such a short amount they should bounce back to what they were like before. I do use shea butter and coconut oil. I also used this oil http://www.aromatherapynaturesway.com/product/healthy-girls-breast-oil/
Designed specifically for breasts. I hope this helps & I wish you happy healing and a loving road to recovery. I would love to hear how you heal up later on!

Thanks for your answer! sorry for my english I need to improve them, your pictures help me a lot, you look so nice. Yes I was only 2 months post BA when I made my removal, I hate it since the first day and I realize I was fine the way I am before. I am 24 years old and I hope to be as before because the age is suppossed to be on my side.... but I am so worry, I feel horrible for this whole procedure and I have anxiety since BA. I want to ask you something, before the surgery my lower pole was really full, and now it's like the scar is created a double bubble or somethng I am not sure but it seems like my lower pole the distance between the nipple and the end of the breast is shorter now and I would like you to ask if the form change in the next months or I will have this form in the lower pole forever. I will post some pictures this weekend. How do you treat your scars? they are very visible? thanks you , I really need advices and good thoughts :(

Thanks for encouragement!

You look amazing. All I can say is thank you for posting so many pictures. We rarely get to see how they firm up and heal and you have helped settle my nerves big time! I hope I look half as good as you

Thank you so much for sharing. I am right on the fence. implants when i was 20 - I had just two little cherries! and now hard as rocks capsulated silicone! I have been pretty happy with them for 25 years though, giving me good body balance. I am a pretty natural gal.. and now have fibroids.. an energy doc felt a strong connection between the toxicity in the fibroid coming from the breast that is ruptured. MRI showed that all is contained in the capsule though. I am so torn.. take them out and be flat chested, or have saline ones put in, or wait 5 months and do some fat/stem cell transfer so at least get me maybe a b cup from a probably AA. you are so brave and your breasts look beautiful! I guess it is hard, I never have a belly and the fibroids are like being 5 months pregnant so taking of of the boobs and having a larger lower half might be devastating. I am 5.9 and weigh 139 (up 9 pls with the fibroids) energy doc advised not removing the fibroids as right now she felt the toxic waste is being all held in one space and so if I remove them before the implants it might just come out in not such a safe direction.

They look great. I'm just over one year post op. Your initial post was actually one of the ones which inspired me to make my choice.
We had a very similar appearance and shape with the implants in.

I'm loving my decision and my small breasts, but the only thing that worries me is my scar. I have since ended my relationship with my ex and I'm nervous to be with someone else because I think they might be turned off by my scar. My breasts are a lot smaller naturally so it shows a lot more..
I was just wondering what your experience was with this? I'm sure I'm being ridiculous and of course the right guy wouldn't care, but it's just something that is making me really self conscious.

very nice result. You think you are close to your pre B/A size and shape?
April 15, 2015
Yes I think I actually have a better shape than pre implant. I had tubular breasts and I guess the implants kind of stretched it out and it's no longer as prominent.

Hi! you look fantastic! I want to take my implants put I am so depressed I only have them just 1.5 months and I can't stand them more. I need to be myself again I am worry of not being the same person as before mental and physical.... I feel so miserable. how are you now?

Hi beauties. :) I am 7 months post op and am still very happy with my descion. My breasts have tightened up a lot and I think they also shrunk up a little bit. Here's some photos for some ladies who asked. I use organic Shea butter currently on my boobies and scars. Also use some essential oils that are good for stretch marks and tightening skin. Best wishes to all of you on your journey.

You look so beautiful!!!! I'm struggling right now with the lack of breast tissue I have after explant. I know it takes time to adjust, but at post op day 5 I find myself almost regretting my decision. Idk what to think right now to be honest. Im praying they really do fluff & tighten :/
April 15, 2015
Thank you! I know how you feel. I was going through a roller coaster of emotions by day 5. I was feeling insecure. But I always knew I made the right decision. Best of luck to you on your journey
April 13, 2015
you look amazing:) which oils are good for skin tightening? Also, ive never seen the tape post op - was that to lift your nipples? Very interesting because they didnt look sunk in at all. last question how many cc's did you have?
April 15, 2015
Thank you! :) Yes my doctor did the tape like that to prevent the nipples from sinking in. Did it do anything? Hard to say. He just did it as a pre caution he did not guarantee it would do anything. I don't recall how many cc's but I was a 34 DD and I am now around a 32 b
