Rupture & Explant

UPDATED FROM Mandeline
3 months post

Still feeling great!

WORTH IT$1,500
They're not perfect and I'm still praying the fluff fairy isn't done with me, but I'm so much happier now. I got some new cute bras! Being able to wear little bralettes is one of my favorite things since having my explant. I also feel SO MUCH BETTER in a bikini. Still working up the courage to post pics of them but I'm still very self conscience. I'm hoping once I get back home from vacation I can get back in the gym and really focus on building up my chest muscles to perk them up more. Also, I'm only 3 months out so I keep telling myself I still have months to continue healing.

I think you look great and those bras are so cute.
Thank you!
You look great! Mine aren't perfect either I still have a little asymmetry but I had that with implants too. I'm 3 months out also its amazing how many changes occur in just little time. Thanks for sharing :)
I know I have to keep telling myself I've come a long way in such a short time so there's no telling how much more healing and fluffing will happen in the weeks/months to come. Staying positive! No matter what, I look and feel a 100% better without the implants!
you look awesome!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!

Will pocket close up???

I know I told myself this takes time and patience but how long does it usually take for the pocket the implant was in to close up? My boobs sink back inwards and there's an indention where the implant was. I feel like if it would just close up my boobs would look so much better! Is there anything I can do to help this? I'm ready for the fluff fairy to come visit.

I had over-muscle saline for 12 years, 2 pregnancies/breastfeeding with them in, and had CC. I also had mine removed under local. 9 weeks is how long it took me to feel like my pockets were 'closed', 6 months to feel 'totally healed', and 1 year to reach what I believe is my final post-surgery result. Congratulations!
This eases my mind a lot! Thank you so much for taking time to reply to this. :)
do you have new photos?
I will post some soon! I've been on vacation and trying not too worry too much about them ;)

Walmart does it again!

Scored these super cute and comfy $5 bras last night. Feeling so good and more confident now; wish I would've explanted years ago... Or never have implanted at all would be even better. But lesson learned. Moving forward feeling so much lighter, slimmer and free!
