Hi everywoman!
First I want to apologize for not writing correctly, sorry, English is not my language and I didn´t want to ask for the mistakes to my teacher of English! hahahha Oooh my god this has always been my shameful secret!! :D so with my few English knowledge and with the useful google uncle I have written my own review ( I have to confess that at the begginig I thought to paste and copy different sentences of you since I felt completely identified with most of you!) haha but not, I did not do it, I did the effort to write with my own words!! I know this is like a therapy and I wish to be able to help and encourage many woman as many of you have helped me sharing yours most deep feelings :D

I am a woman from Spain who as many of us commited a big mistake to get breast implants, it was in 1999.
The reason was I lost weight and and my breasts got a bit smaller and they became flaccid.
At first it didn´t bother me so much, I was 1,57 cm and my weight at about was 47 kg so I liked my 85B size, but I didn´t like them because they got flabby.
Firstly I tryed some treatment with creams etc but they didn´t work so I went to consult to a relative of mine who was a beauty culture specialist.
She told me about the breast augmentation and she told me she knew a good surgeon.
I got a date with him and as many of them told me what all women want to listen to, that the intervention was going to be very simple, that it would not give me any health problem, that I would get the best results, blah, blah.. and It was 1999 and I didn´t have internet and besides I was 25 and I look for the perfect body, I was naive and very trusting so few weeks later I got bigger boobs. They were subglandular implants, and they were 270 cc or something like that.

At the begining I was satisfied, I liked my major volume and besides in those days they seemed quite natural,but I was not really glad because I have never really liked fake boobs.
But the months went by and my right breast became tough and I began to suffer “capsulitis”. I tryed many things, creams, treatments but it didn´t improve at all, my surgeon didn´t give it importance but I got worse and I began to worry about it because the aspect of it changed and the worst it hurt me a lot.
At about 4 years later I visited another surgeon and he told me it was not a problem that I could live with that and even to breastfeed. So I got a bit of peace, but the problem got worse I suffered capsulitis level 5, I think the worst level, but fortunately and by chance I discovered macrobiotic diet, I changed completely my way to eat and cook and in a few months all the pain dissapeared completely, so this way I was be able to live with it until 2010 when I decided to renounce the breastfeed (when my daughter was 3) and replace my implants since I didn´t suffer pain but the aspect was very ugly, in those days I didn´t think about removed them, I don´t know why, simply I thought to replace the old protesis and I wanted to a beautiful breast, not deformed, I couldn´t imagine myself flat, I don´t know why, it was something unconceivable, :( I think simply I was not prepared for it so I searched a good surgeon in my area, Valencia and in Juny of 2010 I suffered my second surgery.
Just when I woke up I realized I had commited a great mistake, I felt terrible with myself, It was like a violent terrorist attack to my own body, I thought what do I do to my body? my temple should be sacred :( I should never have begun this lamentable game, it is a terrible trap!.
This time they were submuscular and the surgeon practiced me a pexia areolar and put me 325 cc, besides my right implant was broken and he had to clean my breast so when I woke up he told me that I had lost part of my tissue because of the cleaning.
I felt so culprit of have had to leave the lactation before I would have liked to do it and I felt I caused myself so much pain and suffer that from that moment I promised me that the next time I went to an operating room would be for explanting my implants and it would be the last time!!.
Time passed, I got divorced 2 years later, and now I share my life with a great boy who support me with it, and I have to say that has helped me a lot and as well to read many women´s reviews has been for me the last push to do it!
So finally now I feel confident, determined and I am looking forward to living free of worries, I am looking forward to holding tightly, without feeling shame, touch my own tiny [RS bleep], not to a pair of hard and cold plastic balls I don´t want to hide them, I dont want to feel shame!!.
I felt a deep regret and I have wished for a long time to heal the big mistake of my life and I didn´t know how to do it but now I have discovered it and this is the way, saying bye to my fake boobs finally I face my fears and I am going to accept myself as I am now.
The rest is past.
Bye bye plastic boobs!! :D
All my love for all of you, your help has been unmeasurable, without you my decision would have not been possible, you are brave women and you have given me the strength I needed, and this is marvellous!!

You look so much like I did pre explant! It looks like you need muscle repair on the right side like I did too! I saw your comment on another review that you are not sure if you should do lift at the same time? And wanted to share with you that what I have learned is that it is best to do one procedure at a time, epecially if you have very litt ready tissue! Xx

Very little breast tissue ^^

Beyouty did you have a muscle repair? Why?
I know that in my second surgery the surgeon had to repaired something in my right breast, in fact he told me I had to rest more months as It is usual, I was almost a year without practice exercice. Could you inform me better about that? And about the lift youbare right I am trying to decide it, my skin heal really well and I am scared about my results, I don't mind small boobs but I would not like saggy. So I would not want after one year I would regret of not to do it, do it, because obviously the breasts will get less flaccid but at the same time I think that will cause me more damage. And I don't want to go to any operation room never in the future. Besides over here I am seeing enormous changed of breasts without lift, as yours!! I ask myself where was all that skin, ¿?
April 11, 2016
Hi solet :) I had muscle repair because my implants were submuscular... Which means my muscles needed to be cut to place the implants. Without muscle repair I could look deformed. I was told I can do upper body exercised after only 4 weeks. I think the big difference is that there is no object in our body anymore keeping us from proper healing :) I did not have any skin removed... My skin retracts very well so in his regard I am lucky :) but for everyone, skin does retract... Just like the skin on your stomach retracted after you had a baby. It takes time... Sometimes a year. You can do lift later under local if you want? The recovery is much easier because there is no muscle involved. Xx

Beyouty thanks a lot for your answer, I didn't know that the muscles was cut, I had understood that the surgeon was detaching the musculature of the thoracic cavity and it is what provokes the enormous pain that we suffer after this intervention.
In my second surgery he proposed me to put me more volumen because after breastfed my breasts were a bit saggy. I objected it and he told me that in that case he shoud practice me a pexia, a pexia 'lolly pops' which I didn't want so I convinced him in practicing me only a pexia areolar in the case he was considering the result without pexia was going to be terribly ugly (although I knew that the areolar pexia was very limited, you know in this practice the surgeon can only do a "small" improvement) Finally I wake up with protesis a little bit bigger and with my nipples smaller and with a sacr around them and besides a scar down in my submammary arch because he told me that as I had broken one protesis and as he had to clean silicone He prefered to put my new implants for another different hole, (cut) in offer to avoid some posible pollution. So now I have thoses sort of scars. Well I had told you all of this because I could observe that from that surgery I have always had a bit of excess of skin, as he told me, I have like two folds, my own breasts very very soft even a bit saggy and in all of this time ( 6 years I have not realized of any improvement with my excess skin and for that reason I am not very sure about to the lift, obviuosly he recommends it me again, but it is up to me, of course!
So I don't know yet what I am going to do :/

As well I have to say I got a flat belly after 2 weeks of giving birth my daughter, but I have observe that my skin there has had another reaction, its like stronger, my breasts skin has always been like a bit flaccid, in fact The first time I visited the first surgeon was because I felt very flabby my breasts ( and I was only 25)
April 12, 2016
Hmmm. Maybe if you already have the scars, you might as well have a lift... And if you need to re do the lift later you can? Maybe you can tell to only do the lift if he thinks you need it once your implants are out??

Ok I will do my best to make good changes so you don't worry to get the lift! ;) [RS bleep] I don't believe you need the scars!... And a little natural droop is sexy! I always used to want one since my Breasts were too sitting up, no crease line ... Now I know they were good, but I'm happy so happy I didn't lift... I will make changes!... ;) [RS bleep] I'm excited for you to have no cold boobs! Hehe... Mine are small but warm now!. :)

April 13, 2016
Hahhahahha your are fantastic!! the truth is that you are already doing the best, making good changes!! :D
but I tell you something, I have already 2 scars, one areolar and another at the crease line, because my surgeon took my old and broken implants for a different hole, he practiced me 2 cuts in order to avoid some posible pollution of silicone.
I am looking forward to having warm boobs, tiny but real yeahhhhh!!! hahahha
Gracias y besos!! ;)

Thank you for sharing your story and it really helps to hear as my surgery has always been my secret or so I thought. In reality at the time family must have noticed even though I wore scarves and anything I could think of to conceal what I had done at the time. Have you had your explant? I am just at the start of this journey and have put a call into a PS who other people on this site have gone to. :-)

we are at the same path, we will see each other over here, con gratulations!!!
Best wishes!! xx
