8 years since removal. I definitely appreciated this site when I was debating whether to even have my implants removed and all throughout my recovery. There was some withdrawals from not having the big boobies but over time those thoughts subsided. My boobs are fine now. You can't really tell I had them in until I lift up my a cup boobies and the scar is there but flesh colored now.

So this 34A bra I got......
TanyaEWatkinsDecember 9, 2017
I think that maybe I'm more of a 36A-and a half? Kinda feels like a sports bra...and I got 3 of them. Maybe it's the brand?

Hi Tanya! I haven’t done a good job of checking back after getting through the holidays but wanted to see how you’re doing. I hope all
Is going well and that you’re all healed up and feeling good. :-)

Same here. I think we are all getting a handle of our life's journey with boobs and feel less pushed to check the site. I was always most curious as to if other people were experiencing what I was when I was and now Im at a point where everything seems to have leveled out. I feel good. I don't have that craving feeling of having bigger boobs anymore....not to say that wont come back. Incisions are still tight but other than that my boobs are good. Thank you for checking in on me tho <3

Glad you’re doing well and it seems we are about in the same place. My incisions are still weird too but other than that I’m fine. Take care!

You look fantastic! What brand is that? I'm two months out and still haven't gotten sized. I just love sports bras and hate underwires.
January 14, 2018
I got it from Wal-Mart lol. I never go sized just winged it and decided my left boob is a 34b and the right is a 34a. So I bought 34b bras. I have 1 36a bra I'm wearing now that isn't bad. I also find myself wearing a sports bra...it's more comfortable. May need more time with the incision healing. Glad to hear from you!

Just an update....I was cleared to stop wearing sports bras except for when working out; to use scar gel/cream/sheets (I'm using serica); nothing at night (I'm a side sleeper); and I need to massage my incisions....break up the scar tissue.the only issue I have so far is stretching my arms straight up in the air or wearing sports bras that push into my incisions. Lifting my arms straight up pulls on my incisions and they seem to be slightly tender to push on...may be a 2.5 out of 10 on a scale pain. I massage Serica Gel on my incisions very gently and put boo oil o. The rest of my boobage. Anyways attached are pics

Bio Oil* on the rest of my boobage...correction

You look absolutely gorgeous! Like you never even had implants. Honestly, I think you've had one of the most beautiful results that I've seen on this website. Congratulations!! And as far as breaking up the scar tissue...yes massage as much as you can, not just the incisions, but your breast tissue as well, as lumps of necrotic tissue can form there. In addition to the twice daily massage with serica, I use a moisturizer or cocoa butter and massage my breasts with that. If I'm lying in bed reading, I massage one breast at a time. Massaging with soap suds when you're in the shower is also good to do. No such thing as too much massaging!

Awww....thank you for your kind words mama....you are too sweet because I honestly wasn't thinking that about my results : ) I may sorta miss the extra chest baggage every now and then lol ..I hear u about the massaging..can't ever massage too much
December 7, 2017
Do your muscles flex and distort the breast?
December 7, 2017
no...when I flex nothing happens... but I also got my implants over the muscle..my old PS said putting implants under the muscle was a waste of time and didn't really make much of a difference so we went above the muscle. Seems those that mess with the muscle have those issues (it seems)

You look amazing and I'm jealous :-). Glad you've been cleared by your doctor. Have you found your incisions to be bumpy at all? I worked a lot the day before Thanksgiving and on Thanksgiving day and in the evening the scars were tight and bumpy. I pressed on them a little and it felt like bubble wrap popping. It was so strange and I don't remember anything like that happening when I got the implants. I have the same issue when raising my arms but it seems to be getting better every week.
December 7, 2017
Awww thank you...O yea they are bumpy and tight...when I raise my arms up I feel them pull. PS said to massage them as much as I can. I put the Serica on twice a day so I make sure I Massage the gel on the incisions instead of just rubbing the gel on. He said we have to break up all that scar tissue by massage. I know it will get better cuz I did that with my c-section scar and now u can barely feel that there was a scar there. We will be good!!

My lefty, the troubled sister, hurts when I raise my arms. Never really thought about it’s until now. I guess she’ll work her way through it ?
December 9, 2017
U know...I feel like since we all been talking about massaging our boobies that already my incisions don't feel as tight...it's a miracle lol....def keeping up the massages. My boobies feel really jelly like....guess I forgot what real boobies feel like
December 8, 2017
Your boobs are way prettier than mine. You did well. very symmetrical. So, you don’t sleep in a bra already? I’m aside sleeper, too
December 9, 2017
Hi Patty, well the day of my post op I didn't wear a bra bu t was very uncomfortable all night so I try to wear a shelf bra or something form fitting at night so my boobage wont slide around...the incisions are what's pulling and actually last night I wore a sports bra again so even tho he cleared me...I'm just playing it by ear until
December 9, 2017
I had to postpone my appointment so not sure what doc would have said. So I’m going by what your experience is. Plus, if it hurts I do something different
December 9, 2017
Yes...and plus we all heal and react differently so maybe the month mark is the point where u can stop wearing bras at night but my boobies are saying no thank you. I think continued incision massaging will eventually allow me to sleep bra-less
December 9, 2017
Thank you so much for posting the pictures. Can I say I think you look absolutely fantastic and if I look half as good after my explant in January I would be so happy. Happy Christmas.
December 9, 2017
