1.5 Year Implants Removed with Breast Lift -

Surgery is scheduled. I decided 1.5 years ago after 2 kids and 70 lb weight loss I wanted my boobs back. They looked like flat pancakes that I had to always wear a push up bra. After a consult with my dr he suggested ump,ants to give me the fullness I desired. He did not think I needed a lift and we decided on 350cc silicone implants. On the day of surgery the dr asked if he could go bigger if he thought he needed to fill out the skin. I gave him my blessing to do what he thought he needed to do. Big mistake......he went to 435 hp implants. They were huge. He assured me they would not look so big after swelling. Fast forward to 3 months later and I still hated them and they looked saggy. I called them my fat girl boobs...... I was so unhappy. My dr decided he will do a revision and do a lift and internal bra. I decided not to downsize because I didn't want to have to buy new implants. I was hoping the lift would help. During recovery they looked better but I now struggled with chest pain and pulling of the muscle. It took me 6 months before I could even fully get back to lifting weights and cardio. I was miserable and I still hated them. I want them out. After a consult with and amazing revision dr, I decided it was time to remove them. I was so mad at myself for spending all this money and all this downtime from working out. But I had to move on......
The new dr is going to explant and do a lift. I am hoping this is a means to the end of breast surgeries... Surgery is scheduled in 5 days!!!!

Tomorrow is the big day. I wasn't feeling nervous until the surgery center called and I realized this is it. Also what an amazing dr I have. He had his staff call me to remind me of everything and then said the dr would like to talk with me too. I have never had a dr talk w me personally the day before the surgery. I definitely have chosen the right dr to do my surgery.

Today was the day. I had to report to the surgery center at 545 am for surgery time at 7. The surgery center staff was amazing and once again I just love dr Poutsi. He came in asking again about my goals and explaining to me again how things will go smoothly and He will take very good care of me. He said I had a good amount of breast tissue and assured me I will be perky but not to small. Surgery took about 3 hours and after my 1 hour drive home I was home resting by noon. I've been pretty in and out of it today but setting a alarm to stay on top of the pain Meds. I can definitely say even with my drains and all the bandages I feel so much pressure released from my chest. I am so Glad to be implant free. I am wrapped pretty tight w lots of gauze so I have no idea my size or not able to take a peak. So no pictures to update as of yet.
