So Glad They're OUT - Michigan

At 43 and a mom. Had 325cc saline implants done, under the muscle, along with a lift.
Unlike some other folks, I had no pain (went off pain meds the very next day) and no complications.
HATED the implants immediately after surgery, and that never went away. I was constantly aware of my boobs, and they felt HARD. They are so horribly unnatural.
I started wearing really loose clothing so they wouldn't show.
And worst of all, those foreign things in my chest freaked me out. They had to go.
Was never happy at my post-surgery check ups. After one month, I asked him to take them out. The surgeon, bless his heart, only charged me $700, the cost to use the surgery room at the hospital, and he did the anesthesia himself. I love him.
Getting the lift was awesome, though, which is all I should have done.
Getting implants was THE single biggest, stupidest mistake in my life.
Unless you're like a mastectomy patient, don't do it. Get a lift. That actually adds more volume, too. I'm still an A cup, but they're fuller and perky. And squishy and natural.
I HATED EVERYTHING ABOUT THOSE IMPLANTS.

You're right. Vanity IS stupid, which you and I and many others had to learn the hard way.
Who knows. Maybe someone considering implants has read our posts and decided against it. That's what I tell myself anyway. Best to you!
This is not irreversible!
Going into the first surgery I honestly didn't think of it as suergery... non of what I was I was doing was deeply sinking in. Going into the explant.. I'm really nervous as I now know how hardcore surgery really is.
Kinda feel like no one should ever have surgery unless required. It's so stupid.
Short term, and more important long term, health are way more important than a life time of elective surgeries on your breasts.
Don't feel bad. Doing stupid things is part if being human, and we all do it.
And this explant sugery will be quicker so the recovery should be a lot easier.
I hear there are women who are happy with them, but it's not for everyone. I sobbed for two days post surgery wondering what I'd done
As it is, all you (and I) did was blow a lot of money. No big deal. Lesson learned.
Breathe easy, girlfriend! It really is a relief the day they come out. Granted mine were only saline, but went to work that very afterenoon. I'm still thrilled that they're out!!!!
Like huge vibrating rocks inside of me.
I hope someone out there that's thinking about doing this to themselves will read this too, and really, deeply, soulfully think about distorting their body in this way, it is not permanent YOU WILL NEED ANOTHER SURGERY AT ANY GIVEN TIME, and surgery is no joke.
I'm sure most women(moms especially) already have a full plate, this is unneccicary worry and grief.
As far as the money, if I had had that 7g in cash in front of me instead of on a credit card, I WOULD HAVE TOOK THE MONEY AND RAN. stupid girl....
Single biggest mistake ive ever made.. And it's all my very own fault. Vanity is STUPID. I'm hoping to get them out ASAP, 1 month seems like so long to wait.
If I could do over again I would go on a fabulous vacation. Dark time for me.
