WORTH IT
So, this is what is left. And I'm very happy. I'm guessing they are swollen, but I will be happy with whatever is left. I feel like a new, much more real me. I hope my journey can help someone in the same position I was. Thank you again to all the women in this forum who helped me get here.

De nuevo por aquí te lo tengo que decir otra vez, impresionantes!! :D
Se te ven unos pechos redondos y preciosos, en absoluto pequeños!
Sabes ahora mirándolos a qué me han recordado, por el tamaño y esa forma tan llenita a los míos con prótesis, en su mejor postura claro..brazos arriba.
Es que se te ven muchísimo mejor que antes del BA, de llenos y bien puestos, menudo cambiazo!!
Ya puedes dormir tranquila! ;)
Ahora a ser cuidadosa.
Un abrazo grande! <3

How are you doing now? Please update us if you can! I hope your results are good and you're still happy with your decision.

Hi, Im doing good. My bobs looked probably better the first few days. Maybe they were a bit swollen and now they are... I'd like to say "minimalists". I tried to take a couple of photos to post, but with the new dressing, one of the boobs looks all funny. I will post some pics next week when dressings came off. A bit scared because I havent seen the scars yet, but they were there before so I know they will fade again. I am still really really happy I explanted.
July 16, 2016
So happy to hear you're doing well!!! I will look forward to more pics. Sounds like it can change a lot over the first months so don't be discouraged if things are a little different now. I bet it feels amazing to have those things out of you! Every day w implants, I cannot wait to be free of these ugly things. You didn't have capsules removed, right?
July 16, 2016
No, I didn't, because the implants were in only for a short time and they were intact so PS didn't think it was necessary. Are you having an explant? How long have U had them for?
July 17, 2016
I've had them a year and a half so far. And yes, I want to explant so badly. So sad and regretful of my decision to have implants. They made my body image worse than it has ever been in my life and have had a lot of problems/deformities with the implants. I see many on this site w a good result and I hope I can be so lucky. It helps a lot to read your story and others who have been there and understand.
July 17, 2016
I know what you feel.i never thought the implants would made me feel as bad as they did.I thought I would feel sexier and instead I just felt awkward, and basically not me. It was really really hard realising and admitting I had made a mistake.... But i guess at the end of the day, it's just that, a mistake. You haven't had them in for so long either,I'm sure you will have a good result. To me, I tried to make sure I was sure that even the worst outcome was better than how I felt before. anything extra is a bonus. I'm like you too; i relied a lot in this website and other womens stories...i can't say thanks enough to all of them for sharing and being here for me.
July 15, 2016
Btw the photo your shared, you look wonderful!!! I can only hope for such a nice result! And he did cut around your areolas again, I thought they would have to redo the lift some, but looks really nice as is- beautiful!
July 16, 2016
What an amazing result I have my appointment on Monday and I'm very scared and need to think long as hard what I want I am the same as I I had to try convince myself to smile but iv hated them from the word go... I miss my old little boobs I'm very worried about what I will be left with? :( I also suffer with anxiety like yourself .. Do you have my more recent pictures on how your boobs are now? [RS bleep]
July 16, 2016
Hi, thank you and good luck for Monday! I think if explant is what you really want, you will probably know then. At least, that is when I knew that is what I needed. I am still very happy I explanted and my anxiety -of course it hasnt vanished but is so much better than it has been during the last 9 months.
I think my boobs dont look as good as they did the first few day because they are not swollen and they are less "tight' - I don't really know what word to use. I don't know if they will fluff or not, but I am happy because they are mine. Sometimes I look at them and I think "mmm, loose skin, mmm, a bit flat,mmm", but then I look at both the preaugmention and postaugmentation photos and I must say I am pretty happy with how they are now.
I have tried to take a photo but the nurse changed the dressings last week and in the photos looks like one of my boobs is weird looking. So Im going to wait for monday to take the dressing off and Ill post a pic. I hope I don't scare anyone with the scars though, but they were there before from the previous lift so the surgeon used them to take the implant off and do some internal stitches to try to hold the breast tissue.
I think when you are gona explant the key is to find the doctor that you trust. Don't go with the first or the second if they don't give you a good vibe.xx

Day of treatment
The doctor came
lostintranslation15July 2, 2016
Doc came this morning and said everything went well. Implants were intact and there were no lumps. Surprise, surprise, the implants were tear-drop when I specifically said to my original PS that I didn't want tear-drop implants. He said they were moderate profile round. I don't understand why he wasn't honest about it.
Anyway, doc said he took the implants out and did some internal stitches from the top to rise the breast tissue a bit. So I have to be very careful next 2 weeks not to move my arms too much.
I'm looking forward to the post op on Thursday though, because I don't feel a 100% with all the meds and I forgot most of my questions.
I'm home now. And I am myself. All is good.

Qué bueno!
Parece que te ha hecho una pequeña reconstrucción con tu tejido para mejorar el aspecto de tus pechos como hizo el mío.. Una pexia interna que mejora la proyección de éstos. Parece que tu cirujano también es muy bueno.
Me alegro, ya verás como en unas pocas semanas te ves genial!
Y que raro lo de las prótesis, no?
Seguramente él sabía muy bien que esos eran los que mejor te iban a quedar a ti y no quería discutirlo contigo.
La verdad que de aspecto estaban bonitos, grandes pero chulos, se te veía hasta regata un poco.
Muy buena noticia lo de los quistes también, eso si que alegra!
Bueno descansa que ahora todo ya pasó y va bien :)

Day of treatment
And they are out
lostintranslation15July 1, 2016
Like that, they are out!! I have slept only a little bit so I'm very tired but feeling quite ok. The nurses, anaesthesist and doctor have all been amazing and I feel incredibly lucky to have this team supporting me.
I got here 6.30 am yesterday. Got to the room and the anaesthesist came in for a talk. He let me have water until 2 h before the op and gave a antinausea tablet. Both of those must have helped cos for the first time after surgery,I feel good, no sign on nausea at all.
They gave me a sleeping tablet and around 11 am we went down to theatre...which I don't remember at all!! I remember the holding room, half remember crying a lot and my doctor there and that is about it. No counting, no theatre.
When I woke up it hurt but nothing unbearable. I have stayed overnight and I feel ok. The pain comes from the areola to the armpit really, but it is not too bad, although I don't have a great range of movement at the moment.
The nurse had to check the dressings last night and she let me have a quick look. From the top the look tiny but ok and I was getting all excited. But looking at them, there seems to be like empty skin sitting at the bottom, like a mini double boob. How lucky, bonus boobs ;)!
I don't know if it ll all fill up but it's day one so no worried. The other thing I have noticed is the armpit and side boob. Where did that come from? Not sure if that will stay there, fingers crossed that it won't. Otherwise they look ok and at least there is something there. Now I guess I have to be patient... Not exactly my forte!
The doc is coming this morning and I hope he is prepared for my never-ending list of questions! And then I think we will go back home and try to rest. I want to make sure I ask how much or how little I can do,so I don't get overconfident and hurt myself.
I will try to post some photos tomorrow when I get home.

Qué wai muchacha!!
Olvida todo eso de los dobles pechos etc..todo regresa a su puesto. Hace nada estaban dentro esos implantes enormes ;)
Y que curioso lo de poder beber hasta 2 horas antes y lo de la pastilla para dormir, está genial así no pasarías tan mal rato.
A mi un enfermero me dijo de darme un calmante pero cuando ya ma habían llevado al pasillo de los quirófanos y al verme tan asustada.. Y en esta ocasión fue llegar y bajar pero la anterior me tiré 4 horas sufriendo en la habitación.. La verdad que hubiese estado genial haberme podido dormir.

Todavía no me lo creo. De vez en cuando me miro y me sonrió. Que bien lo que te han dicho de las adhesiones,no? Tienes que estar Super contenta porque eso era lo que te daba más miedo no? Yo creo que hoy estoy más cansada porque ya no tengo la adrenalina y me duele más porque se me está pasando el efecto de la anestesia local que dijeron que me habían puesto n l pecjo durante la operación.
A ti que te dijeron de dormir? Tienes que dormir inclinada o puedes tumbada?
