Today I had my saline implants drained, I am on a journey to get back to my natural self. I have had implants out in twice, the first time I was in my thirties and finished having babies, just wanted to repair the saggy boobs after babies, the doctor suggested implants so I went with his idea, well they turned out HUGE! I hated them but lived with them for 7 years and then finally got the money up to have them removed completely, I went to the same doctor and he suggested a smaller omplant and said that a lift would look horrible and he didnt want to cut me up, well I went again with his suggestion and agian my boobs were still BIG! I had a size C cup before I ever had my first implants and I didn't want bigger boobs only more filled out to fix the sagging, instead what I really needed was a lift, I had plenty of breast tissue obviouslly, well I seen a different doctor, a lady doctor that understands what I want, so here I go again, one more time, I hate being in this situation again but I will be rid of the giant implants that look stupid and have back my natural breast again, I am worried about the lift though, I keep thinking what the original doctor said about cutting me up and how awful I would look, I trust this lady doctor though and have seen many photos that everyone has posted on here and everyone looks beautiful. I am praying for the best outcome but in the end I will be so happy to be rid of these heavy fake boobs and be my light self again. I had them drained today and they look pretty good right now. I will post updates as my journey continues, so far so happy!

I am really enjoying my new look with the drained implants, I am scheduled to see the PS May 7th to discuss if I want to do a lift or just take out the capsules, I like the way my breast look as of now but I think I am doing the lift anyway. I think that eventually I would want to do it so I might as well do it now. I will let you all know what I decide after my visit with the doc. I have almost decided yes so I scheduled my lift for May 21st.

Ok, here are what the boobies look like with capsule still in but drained out, I more than likely will have a lift May 21st due to one boobie looks bigger than the other and they are still too heavy and I am in my 40's so will need it sooner or latter, so I thought about saving $$$ and just having the capsule out but in the long run I think I will be happier about having a lift and implant free forever! I do have sagging as well. BOO.

It's amazing how many had sagging breasts and instead of suggesting a lift, doctors suggest implants! I so hope this changes. I so very much wish I had just had a lift back in 1987 instead of having implants! Oh well, hindsight etc.
Congratulations on being natural again!

Absolutely, my ols PS that put them in said no to a lift that implants would fill em out and loft em up but instead looked like I had giant watermelons on my chest, I had enough boobies, they only needed a lift. My first male PS was very negative about a lift and pretty much said I would be ruined forever with scars and he didn't want to cut me up.

I was already a D cup before I had the implants. I was just saggy. The doctors notes (which I got years later) even said "will eventually need a lift". Why the he!! didn't he just do that then instead of the implants???? Btw, I was living in Nashville back in 1987. Love Nashville but Texas is home.

They can make more on us by having to replace implants every 10 years, prthaps? ;-)
April 30, 2013
I was given the lifetime BS too. Was told I'd be buried with them (got them at 21). Should be a finable offense. ;-) I think they always figure the patient will be happy with less scars and bigger boobs, rather than the other way around.

I was told that for the first set in 1987 but not the second. I was ready to get them out in 1997 but the PS scared me with the "no breast tissue" gonna be flatter than before crap. At that time, I was told they would last about 20 years because they were being made better. What a racket, eh?
April 30, 2013
You may be right, NG, but they should have at least given us the option. Back in 1987, I didn't even know what a breast lift was! Who knows, I may have chosen implants anyway back then, but now we'll never know.

I really think all these implant suggestions from male doctors is maybe because they think us women look better with big giant boobs or docs know we will be back to replace them or lift them or explant sooner or latter, I think it's about $$$$$ they can make off of us two or three times before it's over. I wish I had loved myself the way I was, beauty is a reflection of our inner self and many times I think we women give into the pressure we feel looking at Pamela Anderson [RS bleep] types and the way men percieve us to be desireable. I think that we should be loved for who we are and if we are loved for who we are, it shouldn't matter to the one that loves us as long as we are healthy mentally and physically, because this is really what is best for all us, to be healthy and happy and not be putting fake body parts into us that force us to have to keep doing risky surgeries that may eventually kill us and for what???/

Which is the after pic? lol. ;-) With all that breast tissue you are going to get such a great result with a lift. Countdown to booby freedom!

Both of these are with the drained saline implant still inside but all the way drained, one of them is the first couple days after draining the second one is after about a week and a half. Lots of tissue left, still too heavy to feel comfortable, ready to do the lift on the 21st this month, can't wait to consult with the PS about it on the 7th and get her ideas. I will keep you all posted.
Thanks ladies!!!!
