Thank you to everyone for Realself! I'm a 59 year old with 2 grown, breast fed kids. I loved my implants for the first several years but now, with aging, and I'm thinking capsular contracture they are VERY firm on the top and my nipples pointing down, as if my skin has slipped off the breast. I hate them. I'm extremely self conscious, however my sweet hubby says he loves them (smart guy! Lol!). When I first got them, I wanted natural, fuller breasts. I really liked the PS, but she over filled them and I was sick. After 2 weeks (and $2,000+ more) she pulled some saline out. Much better! But, I have a puckering under each nipple, I'm guessing from too tight sutures. I also hate that. I've decided, with my hubbies blessing, to have a revision and probably lift. I have two consultations in a few weeks, one with original PS and a new PS. I'm very excited!! My breasts don't feel or look natural, and I feel like I'm obsessed....ok...I am obsessed. I'd like silicone, and I love the anatomical shapes, but have heard that they can move around. I'm thinking my silicones are around 350cc, but not sure. I really like the natural slope and more fullness on the bottom.

I've been looking at tons of before and after pictures. This is so exciting! Kinda weird that you can pick your boobs out of a lineup!! Lol!! These are my "wish breasts" and I think they look so soft and natural. Remember, I'm 59.... Not 20-ish!! Hopefully this is my second AND last augmentation....I'll be taking these to the grave!!

I'll have to check out your profile! Yes'm my surgery is the 16th and tomorrow I have my pre op appointment. I feel very, very confident with my Dr. Gurley. I did go ahead and review others and find a few more pictures and have a few more questions for tomorrow. In my consult, she was very thorough....measured, asked me questions, mad suggestions. She spoke to me and not at me. So for that, I feel thankful.

Oh I forgot to say that my breasts were very similar in appearence 23 yrs later on my first BA.Now my breasts look better.I even have smLler implants and didn't experience alot of pain. Mine are under muscle as my first ones were.I never had any issues with CC with my first set.I am abeliever in them being under the muscle rather than above muscle.I hope you and I as well have no issues or problems in the future.Mine (my old ones)had 1 to rupture due to being put in a beR hug by my grown stepson who I guess wasn't taught how to ask before placing hands on someone elses body.He and I both heard the sound and I knew instantly what had happened.Needless to say I was heartsick even with their age,they were gonna need replacing and I had to wait 2 more years with it leaking silicone in to upper area of my c hest.We couldnt afford to have them removed so I asked my ex husband if he could help and he said yes as long as my current husband didn't get upset.which if he did he never told me or acted funny,he said he felt responsible for his son rupturing the implant in first place.so 5 years later i have my new boobs I love!they are a cup size larger than my first ones were.just wish MY BODYwas smaller as I have gained weight since last year and will look better when slimmer.I am like you said A young 59 and refuse to dress act or look (if I can help it) 59 yrs young!Next I need face worked on for sagging etc and a tummy tuck would be great too!

Today I consulted with an awesome PS and have made my decision. I'm having Dr. Gurley do my revision with breast lift. She's awesome and made me feel so relaxed and confident. My surgery is set for April 16....I can't wait!! Nervous, anxious and excited!! I've loved all the comments and picture you ladies have submitted. My choice has been very personal, and nobody knows my plans for surgery...so that's why Realself is so important to me. You girls are my inspiration and support. Thank you all!!

No prob!! I'm so excited and getting a little nervous. About the scars, I usually don't scar too badly. I've talked with hubby and he's seen after pictures, so he's good. I do with the recovery and glamorous surgical bras weren't so long. But I'll wear them as long as needed!!
