49 Yr Old with 25 Yr Old Silicone Implants - Los Angeles, CA

Still
Super happy the heavy implants are gone. I could have a lift, but all the scarring seems daunting. I don’t need a lift- boobs are boobs and mine don’t look terrible- but..., I keep thinking about the cute styles of clothes that would be easier to wear without an old lady “support” bra lol. I’m still thinking about it, but my boobs look natural and nice as they are.

I decided to remove my implants after injuring my shoulder. The 25 year old implants were heavy and saggy. Before the injury, I had never considered that removing them, and not replacing them was an option. It's been a month since the removal, which was surprisingly no big deal. I went in and was released from the hospital 4 hours later. I had removal plus en bloc, in which the capsule (that was leaking silicone) was completely removed. The worst part was having the drains for a week. But they came out (10 seconds of pain) and the healing has begun! I am SO happy they are no longer part of me. It's hard to describe how much better I feel, physically and emotionally. If I had known what I know now, I would have removed them years ago.
