First, thanks to all who have come before me. Like others, I have been behind-the-scenes reading your stories of inspiration. I, too, am ready to get out of the booby trap. I knew at some point I'm was going to need replacements, and I have decided to remove them rather than replace them.
Knock on wood, my implants have been great! Got them done in 1999, under muscle through the nipple. They were filled with 380 to 420cc's of saline. Been so long I don't remember. Before BA, I was a saggy, small B, after nursing two kids. Wanted small C's, and with age my boobs, like my kids, have grown!
I have opted to deflate first, before I decide on a lift. Deflate Day is July 21 (in office procedure). Then I will follow up with PS in four weeks to determine next steps (lift or au natural). Actual removal is scheduled for September 7. Cost will be $9000 for removal with lift. $3700 without lift. Cost for deflation is $1000, which will go toward the removal and/or lift.

Deflate Day

Today was Deflate Day! Wasn't really nervous, and procedure was quick and painless. Love Dr. Brown too! She is very caring, and made me feel comfortable, especially since I am not a needle fan. So here are pre- and post- deflate pics. Removed 390cc from left breast and 360 from the right. The old girls don't look too bad. :) I will test drive them for a month then decide on lift or no lift.

They look so much more real when deflated, beautiful, I don't think you need a lift! :) [RS bleep]

So far, so good! I went about my usual daily activities, which may or may not have been a good thing. Started feeling sore at the 24 hour mark and took two Tylenol. Back in business now :) Here's a few pics.

It seems like the under-muscle implants can be removed and leave breasts looking amazingly normal without a lift. What about removal of old implants that over-muscle? The skin has been stretched a long time which worries me.

I have 18 year old saline and should be taking them out in a few weeks. Tomorrow I should have my surgery date.
Keep us posted! :)
I'm very glad I deflated before final explanation surgery, as it has given me some time to make an informed decision on a lift. Still on the fence.
Good luck tomorrow!
