I was 26 when I first got my breast implants and today I say 'sayonara' to these gems. Unfortunately, going from 36B to (now) 38DDD didn't work out for me. The last 11 years have been bittersweet - I've loved having larger breasts but can't take the ongoing back pain anymore. After 4 consultations, I confirmed my surgery with the doctor who I felt the most comfortable with, at a rate that was within my budget. I feel very nervous but excited to have smaller breasts again!
Wish me luck!

Just a quick update. 1 day after surgery and I'm feeling pretty good. Some burning and pressure at incision sites but that's normal. My follow up appointment t is early next week where they will remove dressing. Will update afterward.
All the best xx

How do you feel about your new size?

I'm adjusting to my new breast size but very happy about going smaller. My posture immediately improved. No more heavy breast weight. Can't wait until after my first follow up visit so I can see how they look with dressing off.

How exciting! I'm currently a 34f going to get a lift on the 18th. I'm excited yet nervous about getting smaller. But like you said I hope my posture and back improve because of it!

You look really good. You have lots of breast tissue and that's great. Your entire body looks even...Thanks for sharing and God Bless...

Sizewise I think you are looking better already! Hope you are resting comfortably and that you keep us posted as you continue to heal. Here's to no more pain!

I definitely think it'll make a huge difference. Keeping you in my thoughts!

Just had my first follow up visit

It's been 4 days since my surgery and I've just had the tape and gauze removed. My skin was starting to feel very itchy with the tape so this appointment came at a perfect time. I should add that I'm no longer on pain meds, not even Tylenol. The nurse said I'm still very swollen and should expect some fluid to naturally ooze out as I heal. I was told that their 'deformed' appearance is totally normal since I'm still swollen and Breast size /look will likely change . The post-op bra I'm using now is 40D but don't think it'll stay that way since it's loose around breast cup so maybe a C cup when this is all done.
I go back to the office next week to check on incisions/dissolvable stitches. I'm just praying they heal nicely.
Thanks again for following my journey.
