I had BA done a year ago. From the day one after surgery I knew it was huge mistake!!! I've waited for a year bc my counselor recommended that ( to get used to my new image ). I was depressed and anxious. My boobs looked great but I couldn't enjoy them. Finally after a year ( 24/11/16 ) I had them out. I feel a lot of relief and I feel good ( younger and slimmer). I regret how much money I spend but I think it was worth the experience. I have small but cute boobs and whoever loves me will love them. I do love them:) we all try new things and make decisions that after some time we don't feel good about. Well, guess what? We can change our minds, whenever we feel like it. Listen to your inner voice and do what makes you feel happy. Good luck on your journey whatever you decide to do :)

Thank you soooo much for your comment I'm already making an appointment for explant. BA is just not for me and that's it. I want my 34B back, god I want to feel like I did before Can I ask you how was the explant experience? Would you say I can go back to work in the next 2 days? Any pain at all??

To be honest I had breast lift done together with explant. I always had bigger boobs but after breastfeeding 2 I lost the volume. With BA I was trying to get it back. I got 500cc silicone under the muscle through nipple incision. After explant and lift I'm nice perky 32 B, again very happy, even scars don't bother me :). I was able to go to work on day 7. I'm a nurse so I am very active during day. I didn't need any painkillers. I was on hydrocodone first 4 days but again I had big incisions. When I had BA done it hurt more probably bc of the muscle stretching. But even after BA I was back to work on day 7. I was on tylenol from the day 4 and for little bit longer than after explant and lift. Maybe if you can take Friday off and do the procedure on Thursday, you could be ok by Monday. Just make sure you protect your incision. Don't work hard first couple weeks. You probably will feel good since it doesn't hurt that much, but you don't want to overdoo things. Let me know if you have any other questions:)

You're not alone in your feelings. I felt the same after mine was done 2 years ago. Thankfully I'm having them removed next week. They've been quite a burden and I didn't feel like myself any more. I used to be into fashion and all my clothes fit me terribly afterward. Everything just looked like I was trying to shove my breasts down everyone's throat lol. Maybe you might change your mind, but there's a good chance you know that this is the right decision for you. I felt the same as you and kept trying to like them and just couldn't. Buy anyway good luck next month!

I am still into fashion and I must say I felt 100% better before than I do now, BA is just not for me:/ what a mistake. I wish I could love them but I just don't. Any chance to can message me after your explant pretty please? How it went, if you're in pain and how you're feeling? Would really appreciate it. I'm booking my explant already x

Terrible feeling I know but don't worry please just do what feels right! For me since the day one I know I can't have implants, I really want to like them because I wanted them for so long but I can't even touch my boobs now.dont get me wrong most of my girls have their chest done and they look beautiful and are so happy but every one is different.l loved myself so much before but just wanted fuller chest I know this expensive lesson won't be waisted, Once you make your decision let me know sweetie

Explant booked!!

Omg I feel such a relief ! I've spoken to my doctor who is amazing I must say and he assures me that I'm not crazy feeling like this,that it does happen to some ladies that they just don't tolerate it in their body even though they're happy with the way new boobs look. I've explain that all my girls who had it done are so happy from the day one and they well confident after and I'm the total opposite, I feel down everyday since the surgery and I don't even want to touch them or look at them, and I don't know why and I REALLY don't want to feel this way:/ I was soooo much better before.he reassured me that it CAN happen to some girls, not to panic, I just don't tolerate it and he will remove it for me in January.

Of course you are not crazy. It's like trying a short hair cut when your hair used to be long. It may be look even other people will tell you look better in short hair, but if you don't feel yourself you will go back to how you felt better:) how are we supposed to know how we are going to feel if we don't have that experience?

Yes sooooo true but it is an expensive lesson I must say .... wish I have never done it

Yes, but you might think for the rest for your life that you would look better and like your boobs more in case you have done it. Now you're going to relax and love and appreciate yourself the way you are, probably even more ;)

I dont think you will be disappointed. Its great to feel natural again. My biggest bugbear was the barrier it put between myself and those I hugged. I felt sure they could feel I'd had them "done". Now several years later and feeling and looking great and far more comfortable. Its okay for [RS bleep] stars but was not for me.

I'm sure I won't regret it! I miss myself from a month ago so much that I think I'll celebrate another birthday on the removal day!

You are not alone. I have my implants in for 6 weeks. I am 3 days post explant and I do not regret getting them out.

Omg really??? And how are you feeling now?? Hope you're ok sweetie?? Please if you have a spare minute can you tell me how was the explant? Any pain at all?? Can you 'move' , walk around? Work maybe? I really would like to know because yours was at 6weeks mine will be at 8.... and im still in pain from BA to be honest, and very sensitive. Kisses and hope you recover quickly!! [RS bleep]

I was awake during the explant. The doctor used a local anesthetic. I had saline so he punctured the bags and the water came out, suctioned it then stitched me. I was able to get up, walk around with a huge smile on my face :) The recovery has been very easy. You can go back to work after 2 days, just take Tylenol if you have any discomfort from the stitches and just take it easy. I have been rubbing palmers firming butter on my skin to help the skin firm up. Just going to try and be patient to see if my skin and upper pole breast tissue fluffs back up. Hopefully so since it has only been 6 weeks with the implants. I will upload pics soon. Overall I feel great and I feel that those fake [RS bleep] were taking away from my other features and I could not get used to the feeling of having the fake balloons in me. I think it is a great option for women that have a medical necessity to have them. I just could not see myself having them inside me for the rest of my life and I wanted to reverse any damage as soon as possible before a capsule started forming and further skin and tissue stretching.

That's amazing I'm soooo happy for you really! And I'm sure it will all go back to how it use to be as it's only been such a short period. Can't wait until my explant. I really don't feel good ;/implants feel just wrong in my body,I didn't even touch them for a week now because I just CANT. I keep my sports bra on and just get on with it (for another month). I've heard the Silicon Scar Sheets are amazing for the scars. I've bought mine on eBay already. Please get some as well;) And I would really like to see your pictures.[RS bleep]
