Last appointment with Mr. Akali PS.

WORTH IT
I had my last appointment with Mr.Akali, he was very pleased that I am happy with the results. He thinks that this is more or less what they will look like and that there won't be any change in appearance in future, phew! He is amazed how well informed I am so I told him to log on Realself!
A big thank you and a hug to all of you wonderful girls!

Hello fellow Brit! Is 58 correct, your skin is very youthful and I think the new breasts really add to that. They look athletic and neat. I wish my big, natural boobs looked like that! Good for you.

Thank you Little Bell, so will yours, the PS takes away the old scars, removes the implants, capsules should you have any, in my case he washed the area very well because the implants were very old and one was bleeding within the capsule and then he sews the incisions. What is most amazing is that it is not painful and recovery is very quick!

Hi ET, I just had a peep at your review, your right breast is looking a lot better and you have lovely perky breasts! I don't see why you shouldn't be able to go topless? I certainly would do so, discreetly, no racket ball games for me!!

Lima girl, you look so awesome! You are so streamlined with your little perky breasts! Who knew horizontal stripes had advantages?! I always looked like a stuffed sausage on the upper half when I wore them before. The stripes looked wider as the material was stretched out! lol.

Yes, there is no way I would've worn a tight top like that before without feeling very self conscious. It is so much easier this way. X

I had my first bike ride yesterday since the operation. It has been 2 weeks since and I have also regained feeling in my nipples. I lost all feeling in my nipples when I had the implant operation!! Amazing!! Even if I had cancer and had to have the leftover tissue I have removed, I would not have implants replaced, ever!! I am so happy with what I have! A big hug to you all X

Lima Girl you look fantastic. I am so happy for you. I am impressed by your walking. I will do five miles at the most but most of the time it's three. It is going on week six for me and I am still on cloud nine. I have been swimsuit shopping and I told my husband "now I can wear any top, just have to find bottoms that my bottom don't hang out of." I found one that is perfect and can't wait to go to the beach. So glad you had great results!!!!!!!!!

I meant to ask you about the ointment she told you to use. What are the ingredients? I have never heard of it.

The ingredients are calendula or marigold.

I am glad you are pleased with your results too. I will have to wait a while before I venture in the sun, maybe I'll wait till next year. I mean exposing the top area!!

Good luck finding one that takes the insurance up front!! I'm going to try to get reimbursed afterwards, through my ins & Medicare.....if they're ruptured, they will, supposedly...:)

Thank you for your wonderful story! I also noticed that my nipples felt so much better after having my implants removed, it's great! :) You look wonderful and more importantly, it seems that you feel wonderful and for that I am very happy for you! :)

Yes, my breasts feel lovely, soft and sensitive. I can't believe I spent 32 years in that state! I would never recommend implants under any circumstance. I suppose sometimes we have to learn the hard way!! I am happy that so many women are seeing the light, at last! Thank you for your kind words. X

You look beautiful and its obvious that you are both happier and healthier now that the implants are out. I hope to be as active as you before too long!

It doesn't seem that I had implants 3 weeks ago! I feel completely natural and should I feel miserable I will think I could still have the lead balls dragging me down! X

Lima girlMay 11, 2013
The practice nurse had a look at the incisions yesterday, day 10 , she remarked on how well the healing was going and she advices me to use calendula ointment now, Welleda and Nelsons in the UK are known brands. I asked about Bio oil and she thought I should wait till the incisions are completely healed before using it.
I am feeling stronger everyday, have a 6-8 mile walk, sleeping well and on my tummy, without having to prop pillows as before!! Wishing you all lots of good healing hugs! X
