BEFORE & AFTER pics ... old implants vs my new breasts
I decided to upload some old pics of my implants over the years. I really hate looking at them because they bring back bad memories but it's a good comparison to see how my breasts looked then VS how they look now without implants. I didn't realise you couldn't edit posts when I first started this review so otherwise I would have had these pics at the start.
PHOTOS ATTACHED relate to my journey below:
*I had Saline implants over muscle 2004-2008 which bottomed out, rippled & looked horrible,
*I had Silicone implants under muscle 2008-2015 which resulted in a rupture & muscle flex deformity,
*i had a pregnancy & a lot of weight loss/gain which changed how breasts looked.
*Then in 2015, had implants removed without replacement. What absolute freedom..
I have uploaded the latest 6.5 month photo post explant.
One thing that bothers me is that my scar seems to look a bit distorted in my breast fold.
I have gained some weight recently & my breasts looked fuller which I'm pretty happy about.
Hope this helps others on their journey to explant.. It's been the best decision I made
I am now looking forward to my next pregnancy WITHOUT IMPLANTS! I imagine breastfeeding would be so much easier too (fingers crossed).

5 months post explant! Update..
It's been 5 months since my breast implants were removed.
Despite being small, I would never get implants put back in. Implants just felt & looked awkward on me.
The way they feel now 5 months later compared to 1 month post op is totally different.
More fullness when I squeeze my breast tissue & no more "dents" in my chest. They are definitely more firm.
I have loose skin on my left breast but is getting better slowly.

2.5 months photo update of Explant Surgery
Hi all, it's been a while since I last logged in so I thought it was time for a photo update.
As mentioned in previous post, I had fluid issues & have since had to get my left breast drained twice. I think it's ok now though. It's been a fun rollercoaster but nothing I can't handle :/
They still are a bit uneven in size as they were prior to surgery, but otherwise they are healing well.
Breast firmness has improved a lot since my first week post op.. So I'm happy about that as I thought it would never happen. That "scoop" feeling you have in upper pole area straight after explant, now feels fuller too (the fluffing effect as they call it lol)
One thing I'm finding hard is finding a bra! I feel like I'm 12 years old again & have no idea what style or size will suit me & my new boobs lol!!
I'm a size 10A or 32B in bras now but still wearing a soft padded genie bra for now as it's so comfortable & has good compression
Hope my review is helping others make their decision to be implant free again :)

Provider Review
I was virtually pain-free after my surgery. However, not overly happy with the way my scars still appear 'dented/pinched in' after more than 1 year post op.
