27 Year Old Explant and Fat Transfer- No Kids - Seattle, WA

ORIGINAL POST

I've been wanting to do this for a long long time....

WORTH IT$3,000
I've been wanting to do this for a long long time. Got my silicone implants in 2007 and two consecutive revisions in 2014, 2015 and they both gave me severe capsular contracture and seroma.
Terrifyed of what my results will look like also because i'm a smoker and i'm not sure if my skin is elastic enough but hoping the fat transfer will help.
I want to remind myself here that anything is better than this.. That i should go though with this without second thoughts because anything real will feel better than these toxic hard bags sitting on my ribs.. I will do this and i'll pray tonight.. I just want to be my old self again..

I wish you the best. I've been contemplating for over 20 years if I should get my boobs done. I had my nose done and it's been a up and down roller coaster. Overall I am happy with my results. It is an improvement. I hope removing your implants brings you happiness. Good luck and think positive.

Thank you so much xo
Please don't get implants, they definitely won't bring you happiness.. And if they do it'll be very temporary.. The attention is awful and the feeling sucks and you really feel fake. Get a fat transfer with a talented surgeon if you must but no implants they're a big mistake despite their popularity they're very toxic and dangerous. When i got my implants fat transfer to breasts was still not FDA approved now the science has evolved and it's a very normal proceedure. I may get a fat transfer some day when i have kids or sth.

I agree with you, fat transfer looks great.

I am one day post-op and the removal with lift and drains feels better than my severe CC on the right. My boobs are perky little B's and I love them. I was so miserable with the implants and they made me feel fat. I am 5'5 and 119lbs. My tops never fit right. Wishing you the best!

I remove my implants, I can't describe how happy I'm, all my close fits nice, I don't look fat on my upper body.

Hi! I'm thinking of having my boobs explanted. I had the op for tuberous breasts but I hate how fake they look! I just wanted a nicer shape. Looking forward to seeing more pics!

Hey anna! I say do it! Please do it! They look fake and they will keep getting harder and faker. The doctors don't tell you this when they implant you but every woman with implants is bound to experience an implant complication and will have to go under the knife every 10 years.. In 10 years i went through 2 awful revisions and several complications (capsular contracture, bottoming out, implant displacement, seroma) i had 4 horrible MRI's and for 5 years i was so embarassed to wear a swimsuit. How can they still call it "safe"? That's insane.. If someone had told me that when i was younger i probably wouldn't have done it. I say the sooner you explant the better before they do anymore damage to your natural breast tissue and skin. Good luck dear xo

Day of treatment

Back home hospital.. No fat transfer!

So the doctor was supposed to do lipo on my back and give me a fast transfer.. But he didn't! I woke up with no pain in my back so they told me that he just explanted.. The doctor later came to my room and said there was some decent breast tissue and didn't feel the need to transfer fat (i told him to only do it if the breasts collapsed).. I'm actually relieved because i was really worried about fat transfer pain and complications.. Thank God for everything.

You should be ok dear. just take time to heal. allow your body the time to repair.
Good luck

I go next Wednesday - time heals. Give yourself time to heal.
Implants should be outlawed - France has better warnings now as well as many famous women coming out after removal and how sick implants made them. I'm one of many with auto immune disease that implants after 3 1/2 years made life unbearable - I do t care what I look like, I want to live?
July 28, 2016
Do it MollyToo! Do it! They definitely should be outlawed and i hate how surgeons sell them as "the safest option" it's not safe at all! They're a life time commitment to complications and revisions. I experienced so many complications and had two useless revisions that gave me seroma and capsular contracture.. Also the pain, the discomfort, and feeling fake the whole time, i was insecure before getting my implants, but after getting them it was a whole different level of insecurity.. I went from oh they're so small it's embarrassing to oh i hope no one notices how fake they look. And for 5 years my fiance (now husband) couldn't touch or feel them.. I made sure of it.. Such a huge turn off.. It's literally a load off my chest.. Can't wait for you to do it! Goodluck my dear xo

Oh perfectionisr467 they are coming out- and I pre been waiting to get strong enough to have removed. It's been 3 1/2 years of h*** with pain and more suffering the implants have cuased. Just like you, my breast since implants have been to painful to touch from the get go. They become red, hot and swollen after a breast exam- for days ice packs and pain medication. ER visited and multiple MRI's and ultra sounds with no finding except imflamtion. SLE Lupus Is more likely flared making my body go in over drive and attacking breast tissue trying fight off the foreign object (implants). Everyone's body does try to fight off implants by making the slimy coated capsule the PS don't disclose to us prior to implants. Per 2 PS when questioned and many medical papers read, science does not fully understand the full effect on our bodies of the slimy coated capsules , BUT they Do Kniw it is full of bacteria as well as silicone that has rubbed off the shell of both saline & silicone implants. I'm angry that full disclosure is not made. In real estate it's illegal to lie by omission... Shouldn't it be illegal to lie by omission for something as life altering as chemicals leaking slowing in our bodies??
Also the lymphoma numbers are not fully reported due to some lymphoma cleares by removing implants per study I read. Most women don't test when removing implants due Insurace won't pay for removal, and the women often don't have much money...I'm on SSI disability now due how sick I am. FDA must start doing their job to protect US not protect big Big Pharmacutical Companies and The Medical Machine. The sheer numbers of women who have their life's & bodies harmed by implants is hidden - from illness to complications and multiple surgeies until left deformed in my case. Still I want to live more then anything else. My recovery after surgery due Sjorgerns & lupus will be long and painful. But it's the beginning of what I hope is to calming my immunity down once the silcone Posion bags and the slimy coated capsules are gone.

My doctor warn me against fat transfer. When you take fat from another part of your body, you can possibly transfer sick cell to your breast. She did say they don't have concrete proof yet. But is against fat transfer. Also, fat dissipate after awhile.
