Time for a lift?? ADVICE PLEASE
WORTH IT$2,400
It's been almost a year and a half since my explant and I'm going back for a consult to get a lift. Definitely don't want an implant just want these puppies lifted!!! I think it could be done pretty easily considering my skin quality and breast tissue. I need advice!!

THEY'RE OUT!
Yesterday was the day I had my explant, and BOY DO I FEEL GREAT! I was so nervous before going in because I opted out of taking medicine and only did local anesthetic, but I am happy i chose that route. I had 390cc in my right and 410 cc in my left, had them in for 3 years, saline under the muscle, and they already look pretty good!! The skin isnt compromised at all, the upper pole is pretty empty, but I think this will get better over the next couple weeks/months. My nipples are higher than they were before explant and I look 15lbs skinnier!! (thats the best part). Anyone that has been debating on whether or not to get their implants out, my suggestion is to go with your gut!!! I am so happy to be natural again, and can not wait to buy normal size bras and clothing! Anyone that is going through the same, feel free to ask any questions!!

Thank you so much for sharing your story! I sound just like you - B to a DD which I HATE. I found this site looking for Dr. recommendations, and I'm so glad I stumbled on it. Do you have any other advice or updates? After reading people's stories here I am sure I will be SO much happier with these dang things out...
Did you have to get a lift or anything ? I would like to get mine removed
Can you please let me know how much the explant cost? I'm so ready to get these out.

So i have been reading some very helpful posts on realself so I thought I would join in! I've had my 390cc saline implants for 3 years, I was a B before and am now a DD. I HATE THEM!! I am going for a consultation on April 29 and I am so excited to schedule my procedure appointment. I can't wait to be able to dress my body and not dress my boobs and find bathing suits and RUN!! I feel like I'm a prisoner in my own body!! I would love to hear any similar stories and hear successes from people who have had theirs removed similar to mine, I am nervous about how I will look after, but not nervous enough to not get them out!

I am researching surgeons in my area now. I am so ready to get these implants out. I'm praying it's not going to be an outrageous expense.
I am feeling the same way about mine. I have had them for a little over ten years. My fear is what will they look like once they are removed. Anyone who can answer this please do
Oh my gosh I feel the same way. I just want them out with no replacement implants

But if you are determined to go through with it, there is a good surgeon in your area - Dr. Stoeckel at Wake Plastic Surgery. Look at his pictures of breast lifts online. Good luck!
