WORTH IT$9,500
I am 48 and had saline implants placed in 2000 when I found myself with NO breasts after nursing my children. They have never looked natural, and I find myself trying to hide them and embarrassed by them. I have finally made the decision to do this. Cant live with these implants any longer. Too fake and unnatural. Will have 250 ml saline implants removed followed by fat transfer. Hoping simply to have any amount of breast tissue and no larger than a B cup. Irrational fear of possible complications such as a fat embolism and dying to simply have boobs! I will be doing this on my own as it is something I am not comfortable sharing with those I know. The surgeon thinks she will transfer about 300 ml to each breast. I am hoping to be able to conceal the swelling so that I can return to work in 5 or so days with no one noticing. I will be horrified if I look like I have DD! 2 weeks out and still cant believe I will be putting myself through lipo. I am thin so she will have to take fat from several different areas. Will be staying overnight at the surgical facility as i am traveling alone. Cant wait to get these things out

Getting close now. Drove to Latham NY yesterday for pre-op physical, mamogram and blood work as well as pre-op apt with PS's nurse to take care of all of the paperwork and answer any questions I may have. I am having surgery Wed March 12. Will be so relieved to be rid of these implants . Worried about complications and potential for significant swelling that I will be unable to conceal. I am hoping recovery will not be as long as some of you have experienced as I will have to go back to work after 5 days or so.

Hi d256. . . Tomorrow is your big day. I'm sure you are a little apprehensive about the whole thing. You will do fine. I can't even begin to tell you how good you will fill having those implant out of your chest. I feels like a weight has been lifted. You will be able to breath easier, literally. Keep posted on your procedure and the amount she transfers. I will think of you tomorrow and keep you in my prayers.
If you post a pic to your blog your review will go to the top of the list and be seen by more people.

Thought I would keep my post going in the hope that it helps someone else know what they can expect from this procedure. Here are some before pics. I can stand to lose a few pound especially from upper thighs. Sorry pics are not great but you can definitely see how unnatural and round implants look with the edges showing. Pre surg I am 5'5 and a little under 125 lbs. Less than 24 hours and they will be out. Cant wait- but definitely nervous about lipo and recovery
