I got my first surgery on March 2015 600 CCs . I felt remorseful about two weeks later , feeling like I should have never inserted a foreign object into my body . Shorty after I noticed one of my breast was not softening up. Turned out I had CApsular contractor on my right breast . Had a full capsulectomy Jan 2016 . Shorty after I developed hidradenitis superativa down the center chest wall . For those who don't k ow what that is they are pimple like cyst that leak out fluid (my boobs would sweat too much ) & my boob that was revised was now too "loose" and would hang lower than my left could NEVER be without a bra . I've had a bad experience through what I thought would be a one time surgery . I don't want to keep going through this not do I want my skin condition to get worst (which I got due to my implants ) now I am scheduled for a implant removal I am so scared and don't know if I will look the same

From stories I've read you will not regret removing them. You will feel much better.

Sorry that happened to you... I don't have those issues but still want them out... Your right a foreign object probably isn't a good idea to have inside of you... I don't care what they say it's never truly accepted by the body.

Mine come out due major auto immune by implants - Wednesday is D Day. I think your body is warning you by the Cyst- implants shells wear of silicone and much more if leak plus our immune system forms the capsule to "wall off the invader" (implants). My thoughts are with you!

I did it July 21st. I did not do a lift, explant only. I did not have to take any pain meds, just some Advil ,, I also had drains in and 1 got taken out but the side with the CC was left in for another week and is suppose to come out tomorrow !!! Yay !!! I felt better right away but the drains are very uncomfortable... But necessary. I did not do anything special before my surgery bc I didn't know but I would have liked to have massaged with coconut oil and taken some supplements but I am starting to take them soon!!! I know it's scary to not know what ur going to look like after the explant but baby steps,,, what's important for our health to improve is to remove implants 1st!!! Sending prayers ur way !!!

My gosh you have had a hard road with your implants,so sorry for you,I am sure you will be back to your normal self and feel great,I am looking forward to mine to going to dr tomorrow for referral.
I would suggest lots of oils,like vitamin e for healing after scar has healed, juicing especially carrot.celery and cucumber, maybe some intake of vitam e oil as well and other forms of skin healing vitamins your health professional will be able to tell you what is good for skin.

Good luck

I'm surprised not one has answered you yet. Disappointing. If you go on "our postings" for explant I'm sure everyone will give their feed back. I'm 9 days out.
I can't recommend creams ect.. Becuase implant made me so sensitive to almost everything. I will suggest being carful of creams that could have hidden natural hormones in them. They could be big trouble for auto immune issues like me or maybe rashes. Your rash IMO is an auto immune reaction to implants. I now have sane rash between my breast right after explant. I think "stuff" go moved around. Also I'd strongly suggest having your capsules tested. My implants are lil over 3 yrs and although PS thought they were ok and said if it had been up to him he'd leave the in... Well he did as I asked and tested at lab and came back positive for chroic Inflammtion in both breast. Glad their out!! Many I can recover. I'm pretty sick . I'd say eat whole foods drink lots of clean water (harder to get these days) and rest with balance of moving gently in between to keep blood flowing. Not pumped up just gentle walking around house during day. I had muscle damage that had to be repaired due under muscle which really means into the muscle ... Keep in mind only being yr in you your skin should bounce back but sometimes it takes a few days to weeks, months for others who had longer. Our bodies heal - with loving care. Please really look into testing capsules asks other ladies why they had them removed. PS do t like remove them becuase "bad test" need to be reported to FDA. If they do t WE MUST as I am reporting mine. To warn other ladies. Insurace pays to Capsuel testing.

Implant Removal

2 more weeks till my explant I'm getting so nervous I kind of want to get it over with . I miss the feeling of being able to grab my own natural breast. Or feeling the relief feeling of coming home and taking my bra off . Having implants is like wearing a bra 24/7 . Not to mention the sharp pains I get every now and then . Or the awkward way they look (one is lower than the other ) I'm worried of how I'm going to look but hopefully all is well staying positive .

Stay strong- mine look much better after explant . Really
Even brusied as they are right now. Keep in mind I'm very complicated medical history and bad advise from doctors ect..
You'll do fine! Xxxx
August 12, 2016
You will feel a thousand times better trust me.. Even with the wrinkles and stretch marks you will love them.. Trust me i was afraid too and very concerned and waited two years to make that decision and now i regret not doing it earlier.. Believe me the recovery will be so fast and easy and you won't feel any pain. Good luck xoxo

You are so young! Your skin is very elastic and forgiving at that age and you look like you have a good amount of breast tissue. I feel sure you will look perfectly lovely once you heal up. Then you'll get to put this behind you and move on. Mine are coming out soon, serious complications. I'm gonna be flat. But it is what it is. Best wishes to you!
