I decided to explant with a lift after having some abnormal mammograms and the need to have more. The first set of Silicone ruptured and replaced with Saline 13 years ago. My Saline implants were huge and I was so self conscious and at the age of 60+ I decided to go natural with a lift. I feel so much better already and love my results. Dr. Parks and his staff are so awesome and really listened and cared about what I needed and Dr. Parks got the job done-I am still healing but was so happy when I saw my results the day after my surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Parks because he is an excellent plastic surgeon. Dr. Parks took before pictures and we will take after pictures to put on his website. I could not download my pictures to this site.

This is exactly what I would like to do, can you tell me if you are happy with the results?
Am about the same age and had my implants for 28years. I also have problems with one.

Sorry I missed this comment but yes, I am very happy so far with my results and as you can see keep reading my posts and view my pictures. I am about 6 weeks post op and still healing from a rash but it is almost gone and I love my look so far.

Almost 2 years post explant/lift. I now need scar revision because my scars have not healed completely. I am still happy that I did this surgery but it took forever to get the billing office to send the VS a bill so I could get reimbursed for the medical portion. I made the mistake of paying upfront with the promise the office would then Bill. They got their money upfront then put me in a position that I needed to do a greviance and acknowledge that Dr.parks was my assigned doctor and needed to cooperate. I am not blaming Dr. Parks he is a good Dr. His billing staff deceived me but after a long dispute they finally sent in the proper paperwork and I got reimbursed a small portion since this was part medical and part cosmetic the billing was confusing. If you have insurance Don't pay in advance. I will be getting scar revision done at the VA next month-I am a Vet and I trusted this office of Vets to do the right thing and in the end they did. I will try to post my 2 year post op pictures.

I can't download my before photos but believe me I was huge - I have them on my e-mail and Dr. Parks took before pictures and will take more post pictures. He will have these on his website. I will go back August 6th for another appointment. I just love my smaller and firmer breast already and am still healing. I am so happy I was able to put this 13 day post op picture up for the community. Dr. Parks is awesome :-).

I am sorry about not being able to post my before pictures but Dr. Parks took before and will be taking more after pictures too so the community can see them on his site too. I will try to post more pictures as I continue to heal and able to post. I feel so much better already. I feel lighter and no more chest/back pains or worries about having to get more mammograms and having my implants rupture like they did 13 years ago and replaced by huge 540 saline implants which now I am free from. I was so self conscious about my huge breast on a small 5 ' 3" frame. I really did start feeling like an old stripper at 61-so unlike my personality. I am looking more like my real self.

Wow, what a fantastic result. I am so happy for you. It must be such a relief to be free of that heavy weight, physically and emotionally. Now you can give and receive the best of hugs which we all need. Thank you for posting your story and photos.

Thank you Muito for kind words-yes I am really happy so far with results. Yes, it all feels so much more natural to hug-especially my 4 month old baby grandson.
Thanks for sharing your story. Let me know if I can help with uploading photos of your results to the site. I think it would be really helpful for the community!
