I have had my breast implants for 11 years. I have had all 3 children and breastfed with them as well. I am in a different place in my life now and I want them gone! They are heavy and make it hard to breath sometimes. I will be having my implants removed with the capsule and a lift on March 3rd. I can't wait!!!

We have similar stories...I had 300cc silicone on top of muscle for almost 12yrs, breastfed 2 kids & couldn't wait to get rid of them. Wish I had ages ago, or not done it at all.
I just had explant no lift on Thursday. It feels SOOO good. My body craved water, unbelievable how much I drank the first 3 days, still am.
I stated arnica post-op day 1 & only used 2 or 3 T3's & some Advil. Very minimal pain & can raise my arms up & stretch.
Incisions are pretty itchy & the left one is bugging me a bit today but I just ran errands & did some grocery shopping.
I'm not one good at doing nothing do I prob over-did things since surgery.
All the best, so exciting!!

Congrats on your new journey! How are you feeling? Did the Arnica really help with swelling and bruising? Thanks for the well wishes. Friday morning is my time!!!

My implants are smooth mentor saline implants behind the muscle. I'm also getting my muscles repaired.

Hi! Yes, I think it helped, still taking it!
My son jumped on my left breast this morning so that HURT & hopefully doesn't cause anything! 3-yr olds!!
Otherwise I just haven't tested enough. Was feeling sooo good the first few days, still am but should've taken it easier. My sister was supposed to come stay over for a but but she got sick & my husband went back to work post-op day 4 so I should've rested more. I just got the next 2 days off so I'm happy about that.
Make you rest even if u feel great!
All the best, so exciting!! xo

Mine were on top so had no muscle repair etc, might be a bit more sore after with muscle involvement. Look forward to reading your story!!

I had mine removed yesterday and I feel great pain not too bad I had a lift and muscle repair as mine were under the muscle I'm excited for you I asked my surgeon if they were ruptured he said no I'm wishing you well I was excited but nervous the night before so you can expect that make sure you have food bottled water etc drink plenty water to get anesthesia out your body

I'm having the procedure done. Explant, lift and muscle repair. She said she was going to be making the nipples a tad smaller as well. I have saline behind the muscle by the way. Thank you for the tip. I will be drinking lots of water. I can't wait until March 3rd. Happy healing...:-)

Also I don't know if your ps told you but the wanted me to start taking a multi vitamin before the surgery and during healing Im feeling so much better it's just 48 hrs post op I'm takin extra strength Tylenol and antibiotics oh I cooked enough food for four days make sure you have protein to help healing

My PS gave me some Arnica Montana and Bromelain with Quercetin. My antibiotics will be through my IV during surgery so I won't be getting those. I'm going to food prep some healthy foods for a couple of days after as well.
