Six month update

  • 26 Jul 2016
  • 6 months post
It's been six months and I really haven't seen much change. They are still saggy flat pancakes. I have a crease below the left nipple and a wide flat indentation above the right nipple. I am getting more used to them and still prefer my natural breasts to any implants. At this point I don't know if I'm going to have any more procedures. I may consider some fat transfer to fill in the dents. My life is pretty busy now so I don't want to deal with any procedures for awhile. We'll see how things look in another six months. All in all I still am happy I explanted. I do have options to improve the looks of my breasts if I choose and I love feeling so light and free.

Love this tankini! I feel much more comfortable poolside like this than I ever did with implants!

Three month update

Well it has been three months and I have seen some tiny changes. I'm getting more and more used to my new tiny flatties. I have an indention below the nipple on my leftie and an indention above the nipple on my righty. Those indentions are because the implants put pressure on my breast tissue in those spots and the breast tissue thinned out over the years. Not sure if those spots will ever fill in, but we will see. Even though they are not as aesthetically pleasing as I had hoped, I do like the way they look with clothes/bra on. I went on a little tropical getaway last week and spent a lot of time around the pool in my new tankini. It was really nice not feeling self conscious about having obviously fake boobs! I found two great tankinis that look really nice! My Hubby is fine with the "new, svelte" me as he puts it :).

Provider Review

Joseph L. Grzeskiewicz, MD, FACS
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
9333 Genesee Ave., San Diego, California
  • 13 Dec 2015

I'm very happy I chose Dr. Grzeskiewicz. At my first consultation he sat with me for about an hour and listened to my concerns and what my goal was for the surgery (which was straight explant - without replacement). He went through all the options available to me to let me know what choices I had. He explained the procedure very well and went through what I should expect for recovery. The consultation experience was very comfortable for me. Dr. G. came across as very knowledgeable but not arrogant. I never felt like I was pressured by Dr. G or Eva (his Customer Experience Advocate). I got the impression that Dr. G really cares about his work and wants his patients to be happy with their results.
