The past 11 years ive hand many problems. I started with saline, they rilppled, one side drooped way down to far and the other side would not drop at all. The doctor recommend that i switch to silicone implants, so I did. They were softer and more comfortable but I ended up with capsule contracture again. Then ruptured . I then switched doctors at this point. He was able to fix my deformity and put smaller silicone implants. I was very happy with The results until the same problems occurred again. Had 3 more procedures to fix all of that. Had 8 surgeries total. Today was the 9th and last. The explant was the best decision I could have made! The reason i had them removed is illness. I will keep you posted on my progress so I can help others. I thank God for this site. I read all of your stories over the last few months. Thank you to all who posted it really helped me make the right decision:)

The numbness in my arms is starting to go away! Left breast still looks strange but that is the side I have had all the problems with. Hoping it will fill out a bit. It kinda feels hollow.

What kind of fit problems are you encountering?

I'm still swelled at the sides . Everything I tried on made me look awkward. I guess I'll wait a few days and try again.
