27 Years Old, Explant Due to Capsular Contracture, Mastopexy Without Replacement of Implants

A little over 5 years ago, I got breast implants in order to feel more confident about myself. I knew almost immediately that I'd made a huge mistake but I wanted to give myself time to see if I could learn to love them. I developed cc on my right breast but it was tolerable but a bit uncomfortable and hard. I have enough breast tissue to hide it well. I planned on getting them removed but ended up getting pregnant and breastfeeding for 2.5 years. During that time, I ended up getting cc in my left breast but it was far worse than the right. The implant migrated up my chest and developed a "knuckle" at the top of it, which is very visible. I've been in pain every day since this happened. I've weaned my daughter and I'm ready to have my body back to myself. No more fake bags of plastic. I'm so ready to get this weight off my chest. Pun intended.

With less than 24 hours to go, I'm feeling anxious and ready to get these toxic bags out of my body! The timing is perfect because my left breast has been aching like crazy this past week. The worst decision of my life is almost behind me. This time tomorrow, I'll be implant free and the healing can begin. Emotionally, physically and spiritually.
