My implants were done 12 years ago in CA. I woke up one morning to find that my left implant had ruptured. My very first thought was that I liked it better than the one that was still in tact. I knew almost immediately that I wanted to have them removed and not re-implant. More than anything I didn't want surgery and it became crystal clear that if I re-implanted then there would still be yet another future surgery looming over me for future years to come. I made the appointment and crossed my fingers. Dr. Wheeler was very gracious although he felt that I would be better off and happier if I re-implanted. He respected my decision to remove and my procedure was done in June. I am thrilled with my results! I am small to begin with so no lift was necessary and frankly I feel free! No regrets, no further surgeries and sleeping on my stomach now feels normal! Woo-hoo!!!

I'm glad you're enjoying being natural again! Is there anything at all you miss about your implants?

Absolutely nothing. I guess now having had breasts and having small breasts I definately prefer the small ones. Most women seem to love their implants. I just wasn't one of them. They turned out larger than I wanted (36C - I'm 5'4" 118 lbs) and just never seemed to fit my slight build. Now I'm me and happier than ever!
