42 Years Old 600cc Silicone Implants over the Muscle in 2006 ...ruptured !! -had them removed via nhs uk GB
ORIGINAL POST
Only found this website recently and would like to...
WORTH IT$4,250
Only found this website recently and would like to thank all the lovely women for sharing their stories and pictures....it has helped me come to my decision.
Basically after 2 children and years of weigh gain and loss and boobs size going up and down from a B cup-DD I researched for months and decided after a friend had implants with transform that I would approach them I saw Mr chantarasak and he was great.....said my breasts were where they should be ( I thought they were sagging ) but would benefit from implants to fill them out more...so to cut a long story short I had 600cc implants placed over the muscle....op went very well no pain no brushing etc..all future check ups were fine.
Over the years I have noticed them lowering but it's only natural...gravity..age etc....I then found a lump...I had a lump investigated back in 1998 and it turned out to be a fibroadenoma ...so I thought it may be this again....had a scan and a mammogram and the following is the findings...on imaging there was evidence of a ruptured,collapsed implant lying in a complex fluid collection inferolaterally in the right breast and a lump was noticed as well as a smaller lump beside it.on ultrasound the appearance was that of a benign fibroadenoma .mamogramm showed irregularity in the right breast implant otherwise there was normal breast tissue!
Wow...shock is an understatement....I got straight onto transform the next day who wanted to see me that afternoon....was told
Mr chantarasak was retiring but dr khan would do it...god he was abrupt and extremely rude...wouldn't listen to what I had to say and kept interrupting me...said my breasts were a bit low ( nothing like kicking ya when ya done eh ) he couldn't feel a lump but could replace with different size £5000!!!
Double wow...so luckily found this site and started doing some research...I then received the letter from the hospital surgeon last week...with his findings which came as a shock...so thought it through and came to my decision after a few weeks mulling it over.....I can't go through further surgery...nor wish to put myself at any further future risk....and health complications so removal is my best option.
My local nhs hospital have said they need to be removed ASAP and they can do this...so finally rang them Monday and got a letter today saying I am on a waiting list for breast surgery . So will update as and when...nervous and dreading the end result but health comes first xx

Mine is tomorrow, on my 41st birthday. I said what a birthday present. Yes that was sarcasm because I am freaking out and nervous. I know it's for the best but I really am nervous. How do you feel? I will say that I also am excited about it, just to see if it helps change my life
Thank God I listened to my internal voice and didn't go with the 1st surgeon. Very arrogant, he dropped the F bomb while talking to me and told me I would be horrified and I was too young (49) not to re implant. He also did a mini ultra sound and said the leak was contained in the capsule, which it wasn't.
He wanted me to go with smaller implants, but I had no more natural breast tissue, well, very little, so with the implants he could do a lift.
I asked him what about the capsular contracture. From what I heard, once you get it, you have a 50 % chance of it happening again.
He also told me I could go with textured implants, they don't get capsular contracture, but do carry a 20% risk of causing a certain type of lymphoma. Well I said No thank you to the lymphoma , but little did I know I already had textured implants and didn't know it. Funny thing is I also got capsular contracture.
My 2 1/2 surgery ended up being 7 hours. I was a mess. Both implants were ruptured, they were textured, so my surgeon spent a lot of extra time getting it all out.
My implants were under the muscle so there is a lot of work to do to put everything back where it should be. I also left out 15 months before I got my silicone implants, I had saline. One ruptured after 15 months.
My surgery was much more intense then most. I had drains in for 2 whole weeks. I had to quit my business, I have a cleaning business. I wont be able to do full house work for probably another month or longer.
The surgery has caused some hormonal shifts and may be bringing on menopause, but I am at that age.
My results are not pretty. I LOVE being smaller chested and I hope a year from now I can do some prp with skin toning treatments my Dr. is working on.
Almost all ps want you to re implant, but once you have a problem, I think you will continue,
I belong to 2 fb groups, I think 1 is in the UK, even though I am in the States. They are very informative and supportive.
The best of luck to you!
