WORTH IT$9,600
I am 5'6", 124 lbs. and 39 years old. The breast implants and lift came after my kids. I did have As before nursing and they settled around droopy Bs. The implants brought me to large Cs. They never settled properly, the areola stretched out and the right side has ruptured. So ready to rid of these.

I also have had implants with a donut lift and will be having explant and lift soon. My implants are 1.5 yrs old and I've had many complications and hated them right off! I bet it feels great to be back to yourself. Take good care now while you're healing! Wishing you the very best and thank you for sharing your experience. It helps very much to hear from other women who are going through the similar experiences.

Hi Hopedforbetter,
Thank you! It does feel amazing to just be me again...to not feel those weights on my chest.
I'm so glad my story is helpful. I've leaned on so many stories throughout this decision making process and it has helped me as well in cutting out some of the unknown.
I hope the very best for you!!!

One month from explant!
Tonight, I'm going through reviews of others who have bravely faced this decision. I know my husband is accepting my upcoming change. I know he loves me no matter what, but I still feel nervous. I have forgotten what I look like without larger breasts...but these look so bad now with all the stretching and drooping. I know personally, I will feel relieved and myself again...not always trying to hide my boobs because they feel huge. I just hope he is okay with everything. I took the below pictures a few weeks back, but they are a better representation of what they really look like...the implants are too high and the aureolas are way too large after all the stretching. These will be reduced after the explant.

I'm worried about that too, but my husband had never seen me without them. They come out Thursday so I guess I'll find out soon.

Hi Readytobemeagn - I'm sorry I'm just getting to your response. I haven't been on in a while. I hope all went well! Mine come out in two days. Feeling hopeful today...but nervous, of course.

I hope you get the results you want! By the way, my husband likes my new breasts. :)

September 21, 2016
Thank you! I'm imagining they'll have to be better than my current state. :)
Really?!! That's wonderful! I'm not at all surprised though - you look amazing.

September 25, 2016
I can so relate to these feelings! I hope soon to be on the other side too, but I'm also afraid of the scarring and how I will look and feel about it. You're very brave!! :) I am so ready to be brave myself and be done with these things!

September 25, 2016
Thank you! I agree - the scarring is the scariest part, but worth it to get these things out (just be sure to find a great PS). You'll do amazing!
I'm currently keeping the look of them away from my husband until I get through the worst of it - he probably wouldn't mind, but I'm being cautious. :)
Best of luck to you!!!

Two days out!
I am feeling excited, nervous and hopeful. So many emotions going on right now. I've researched this from every angle. I've found pictures of the best and worst outcomes - accepting both possibilities or something in between. I'm going to have an anchor scar - reality. Just hoping it heals well.
Here are a few inspirational pics for the night...
I'm told I will be a small B at best.

Hang in there and try not to be too nervous! I am guessing you are going to feel so liberated when the surgery is over like so many others on here. It seems so much of the beauty end up coming just as much from reclaiming your body, as tweaking the aesthetics of your post explant boobs. I think once you feel your body back to its natural form you will be so much more accepting of it. My surgery is not until Dec 15th and every day seems like an eternity until just get these things the heck out of me!

Thank you so much! You are absolutely right - I think I am going to feel relieved (those were the doctor's exact words)...especially given the long distance hiking I do. I won't have these balloons/weights in the way any longer.
Good luck with your procedure! The way time seems to be flying, it'll be here before we know it! :)
