I almost forgot to show you my armpit scar, or lack there of! :)
I'm finally making strides in the gym. I can do real push ups again and I almost have a strict pull up again. This photograph is one year post second replacement operation. Dr. Carl Price is a true artist and he is the best!!!

1yr post 2nd op
It's been 1yr since my Ideal Implant ruptured and I had Mentor smooth saline put in instead. I love my Mentor saline implants they are so much better than the Ideal Implants. The Mentor ones feel 10 times more natural and they have no rippling!

Hello! I have been wanting to get saline implants and was wondering if getting the ideal implant was worth it. Your new saline look amazing! Did they end up getting a lot softer?

I would Never recommend the Ideal Implants to a friend! They were awful. They had worse rippling and did not feel more real than the typical Mentor Saline Implants that I have now. Plus the Ideal Implants ruptured on me after only 2 years. These most recent pictures are of my Mentor Smooth Round High Profile Saline 310cc filled to 370cc. I love them, they are very soft and very real feeling.

6 weeks with replacement implants
My 6 week appointment went well. I have to keep messaging and come back in January to make sure my right side continues to soften. The swelling is gone and they have softened up, I love these new implants! They are the perfect, size, shape and feel for me! These Mentor High Profile Saline implants feel so much more real than The Ideal Implants. Doctor Carl Price is the best!
