So I have had my implants for 13 years now. They are 350cc saline over the muscle. I have been thinking about removing them for a month or so I just really want my natural body and to have smaller boobs.. I am so over these heavy rocks lol. I have surgery scheduled for October 7th and can't wait. The only thing that is worrying me is how am I going to look after. My PS said I had no breast tissue and would be an A cup???????? I was hoping for at least a B. I'm 5"9 and weigh about 145 I have a large frame but still think my implants make me look top heavy..I'm hoping I will look more slim with smaller boobs. This site has really helped me make my decision and has helped being able to see everyone else's results. I will post my before pics and after pics so hopefully I can be of some help to someone else...???? if anyone has had their breast implants taken out I would like to know how long it took you before your skin started to shrink back a little?

We are similar size (I'm 2" shorter and 10 lbs heavier) but I feel the same way you do about being "top heavy." I was barely a B cup and now I'm a heavy D cup. I am researching doctors and options. I wish you all the best and looking forward to your surgery and recovery updates! xo
September 26, 2015
Thank you.. I wish you the same.. If I had known what I know now I would have never gotten implants. I guess we live and we learn.

I'm 5 foot 11 inches and 185 pounds I'm due for a mommy makeover the same day as your surgery. I'm opting to not have implants. My PS doesn't think I will be happy with just a lift because I will be lucky if I'm a b. But looking like I will be an a cup. I'm ok with that. I'm so scared of implants and the stories I read on the problems women have. Horray for small perky boobies. Lol :-) best of luck to you and hope your surgery goes well.
September 26, 2015
Thank you so much. I hope your surgery goes well also... Keep me updated.
September 27, 2015
Good luck to you! My explant is also scheduled for October 7th ;-) May we be pleased with the results of our surgery !
September 29, 2015
Yes I hope so.. Good luck and take care...

I have a very similar story only had implants 25-ish years. 330cc silicon, under the muscle. Back then I was 5'7" and 130 lbs and ended up with a perfect C+ cup. Now I am 155 pounds (getting old sucks) with a D-DD cup and I feel super top heavy. I am scheduled for implant removal and breast lift (lollipop) on 11/13. I was an A when I had surgery. I am really hoping my weight gain over the years will at least give me a B when I am done. My surgeon says "maybe but more likely an A" because will be removing capsule and scar tissue. I have loved being proportionate over the years but now they are just too big. I decided to see how I look after surgery without re-implanting because I'd like to not deal with mammograms/exercising/can't find swimsuits, etc. but will reevaluate later. Besides, the bras now-days make such a difference. I'm 50 and back then there was NO padding or cleavage bras to help a girl out. (Honestly. you look really slim to me; not "large framed" at all) I hope everything goes well for you in October. Take care!

I'll try to get some before pictures up. Also, I had two kids after I had my surgery so they softened up and looked really natural for a long time. Now they're just too big. Like you said, glad to get rid of the heavy rocks. :-)

I am booked in Costa Rica for the 8th of October for ex plant ..I will be getting a lift as well.. Does your surgeon suggest a lift? I am also DD and 5'9
September 29, 2015
No he didn't suggest a lift. He is hoping that they will shrink up enough with time. He also did not think I would have enough breast tissue to be able to perform a lift. I hope they turn out ok. Good luck to you and take care..

Could you please share Dr’s name and cost for removal in Costa Rica. Thank you

I only have 8 more days and counting down.. I'm starting to get a little nervous and getting some mixed feelings about it. I'm scared that I am going to horrified when I see what I look like. I'm also scared about being a size A . I haven't been that size since I was 12. I have talked to some of my friends and family about it but I'm starting to think they are sick of listening to me talk about my boobs lol.. My husband is no help because he doesn't understand. I just keep picturing myself without any boobs and I'm not sure to this point how I'm going to feel once they are gone. I know this is best for me. How can I be sad or scared over losing something that was never really me in the first place...

I don't think you should worry! I removed mine and feel better and think it actually looks better. An A cup is pretty and sags less!
September 30, 2015
Thank you. I know you are right I just need to stop worrying and I'm sure they will be just fine..
September 30, 2015
I went right down to a "AA" , so nothing there at all, but with a 34 B bra and gels I look fine , and my husband LOVES the real me! I'd post a pic but don't know how!

Hi I had mine removed about 2 years ago and was left with absolutely nothing, just itty bits of loose skin, so I satrted wearing gel falsies right away which made me feel better. My husband has always preferred little [RS bleep] so he loves the new me! Whatever works for you is just fine! Dianne

I completely get it! I have had my saline implants for 20 years and I am feeling like I am ready to have them removed but I am concerned about how I will look without them.
February 27, 2019
Hi Ladies i had mine taken out 10 days ago i had all the fears your going through ....but im pleased with the results no paper thin skin and i am a 36 b now they are a little more droopy than 16 yrs ago when i had the implants put in which is to be expected pain of procedure is bearable 7 out of 10 i would rate it, i love my boobs now im all in propotion and feel more confident without them before i got implants i hated my boobs and always wanted big ones when i got implants i was ashamed and embarrased of them and tried to disguise them.. Before having them removed i prepared myself to love them whatever they looked like and i do love them now .Go for it dont worry about it you will feel great when the implants are out and your all natural again for me it was worth it just to be free and me xx
