58 yo, explant after 27 yrs with lift, and later, fat transfer

So, I've been reading posts and decided it's time for the consult. I am hoping to go natural and I know I will need a lift. It was 1984 when I first augmented under breast in San Diego. The surgeon decided I needed large 450cc. I was shocked at the size of the bandages afterwards, considering I was 27, 5'5 and 128 lbs. I had problems immediately with capsules and hard mis-shaped boobs. Embarrassed to hug anyone, I was elevated by my breasts when on my tummy, they were that hard. Needless to say, in the course of the next 6 years, I had 9 procedures that included closed capsulotomy, open caps, implant size reduction, revision, removal of left infected, re-implant left, changed surgeon in 1990 and he placed under muscle. I was relieved not to have hard lumps after that and even though I had some scar tissue under left, I was satisfied and that was the last procedure. In the last few years, aging has caused my breasts to sag but the implants remain high up and capsules. I now want them out and hope to go natural with a lift. My consultation is next Friday, Jan. 30th. I will post photos and updates along my journey.

I took these last week, notice the sagging, scarring. All right, I need to lose 10-15lbs, too! :)

I was excited to get things rolling today. After speaking to my surgeon and reviewing all my options, it was suggested to get my implants drained, well in advance of my surgery date of March 12th. So I go in next Wednesday Feb 4th at lunchtime and come back to work FLAT! YIKES! That's gonna be a shocker. I'll post photos after that. We need to see how much breast tissue will be left after having both above and below muscle implants, scaring, capsules, etc and for so long. During the actual surgery, I will have the implants, capsules and scar tissue removed, perform a lift then cross our fingers. We'll have to wait and see down the road if I'll need fat transfer to fill out a bit, but I have high hopes and will be happy with whatever results I get, just to have them OUT.
