I wish I had just had a lift 12 years ago, but here I am getting ready to remove these things along with a lift. I'm excited, nervous, but hopeful. I don't mind being small, I used to be a 32B, I'm a 32D with implants and my PS says to expect to be an AA to small B. I'm what most people consider petite at 5'5" and weigh 112. I've done a ton of research and read tons of blogs.

Will your dr. be removing the capsules and using drains?

He wants to leave the capsules to minimize bleeding, but yes on drains. He said the drains are important to keep the pockets from filling up with fluid.

Hi!
I never really liked them, they always felt foreign in my body. I had numbness and hated to have them touched. After 12 years they had to began to sag and I knew it was time to get them out. I was already 50 and didn't want to put my body through a big surgery any later.
I'm post op over a year now and completely happy and at peace with my decision to explant.
