feeling better
WORTH IT
I'm feeling a lot happier with my new look sorry I've not been on here for a couple of days but I've been getting my head around what I've been through and the changes with my body, I've decided to post some pics, I'm still wearing the compression garment :( which I'm sick off, but it's a must, still very flat no fluffing for me yet.

feeling down
Well its not been a good couple of days, at first I was so relieved to be rid of the Pips and felt happy with what I'd done however after my check up with the nurse on tuesday and seeing myself for the first time I can't help but feel quite upset, think I had forgotten just how flat I really am, basically I look like a boy and not sure I can post any pictures. I know natural is best but really how can I have so little? Feel rubbish, maybe things will get better, the nurse said give it time so that's what I'll do.

I'm sorry you're feeling low! Have you checked out this post about giving your breasts some oomph after explantation? Some women don't feel the need for this and some do.
Hope you're feeling more positive about things soon!

You will fluff. They look sad at first but will be AMAZING soon! Post pix; we'll all support you and can't wait to tell you how great you look. You may not be busty, but I giarantee you look like a WOMAN and not a boy,,, flat or not

Hi, I hope you are feeling better. I am scared rotten of what mine will look like too. I hope you find the courage to post some pictures of your new you on the site or surely the site has not done it's job of making you feel comfortable in front of all of us. We need to hear and see all stories not just those with a fairytale ending but the ones where after our op we still feel unsure, stories where we are not singing and dancing from the rooftops but instead are taking time to adjust to the new us, the new shape. It must be so scary at first, I am absolutely petrified. If I could have collected the tears I have shed so far (and that's before I've even booked my surgery lol) I would surly have filled a swimming pool. I know I will find it difficult afterwards too. I was a clothes model (in a previous life - clothes on! lol)...but my looks have been such a big part of my career. Now people expect it from me and to be honest sometimes I just want to be a slob and be me but if I am less than perfect I am told I am letting myself go! I had no breasts at all to start with so I know I am going to be very, very flat. Please don't feel afraid of your new look, we are all in the same boat. I just keep telling myself at least I will be more healthy and hopefully that means I will hopefully be around longer for my children and grandchildren. xxxx

Hi, just been reading your comments and page. Please don't worry and try to ignore everyone who is surprised at you having removal without a lift, absolutely everyone told me I would be making a mistake not to replace my implants and they were wrong, they are looking and feeling better every day. I too was really worried and cried even the day of the operation when I first looked at them but they are getting better every day!! I'll post some updated pictures in a few days but really I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Natural looks and feels so much better and safer in the long run. We don't know what these implants can do long term.:)

thank you wundawoman for that. My 2nd consultation is next Wed. and we will discuss the options, lift or no lift. I am glad you are feeling good about things post op.

you are so right msprincess, it is important for all of us to see and hear the negative as well as the positive, at least that is the reason I visit this website. (My PS also recommended it.) When do you expect your procedure?
November 8, 2013
Thank you for your comment and I wish you well, I'm adjusting to my new look ans beginning to feel happier xx

hi, thanks for that. I am up and down still. Have just spoken to my ex boyfriend. He said he didn't even know I had implants but is glad I don't have the big C (this problem all started with me finding a "lump"!! so I consider myself very lucky in that respect) . He then said "you will get them replaced eventually won't you"....I don't know....it's funny how the odd innocent comment by someone can knock you off balance so easily....that said, I am still having them out without replacement...but I STILL HAVEN'T got a price....Arghhhhh. I wanted this info so I could digest it and work my cash out!
I am glad to see your after pics. I don't know if the last pic is the latest but they look really good on the last picture especially. I have read that they fluff a bit as time goes on but you are so lucky to have them looking perfect. I am worried as my fear is that I may get a concave result. Congratulations on having your real perfect boobies. [RS bleep]
November 8, 2013
Thank you so much its so lovely to read :) I did the photos today thank you again, I know I'm very flat but they are me! And I actually feel a lot slimmer lol I'm so sorry to hear you found a lump the sooner you can get rid the better. I was also very worried about being left with a concave chest, try not to worry too much (easier said than done) but I'm sure you'll look wonderful [RS bleep]

I am hoping to book for surgery to take place in November assuming I get up the nerve to go through with it. Have you had yours removed or are you still researching. I have posted pics of me now on my story and am going to put some pre breast implant pics and after pics too.[RS bleep]
November 8, 2013
Thank you. I hope I can move ahead soon. You must feel such relief. I am sure if your breasts were to be concave you would have seen signs already so I think you can relax. You are through the tunnel and on the safe side:-) and looking real good.xxxx

Hi Katie I had them removed through surgicare Manchester as they are the people responsible for giving me pips, had to travel to Birmingham for the actual op, it was free they covered the costs but if I decided to replace them it would of cost between 2000/3000, thank you x
November 8, 2013
Thankyou :) I've managed 2 get a date 21st of November costing 14 50 so not 2 bad cant wait 2 get back 2 natural :)[RS bleep]
November 8, 2013
Hi Katie....can I ask where you are getting your removal done. I have been quoted at £2410 which to be honest I think is a little high but they are removing the capsule as well....still think its a bit high. I'm having my nose done at same time but I don't have a price for that yet!. xx
October 28, 2013
Hi, how are u feeling now? How are your breast looking? X
October 31, 2013
I'm feeling a lot better thank you, I've mixed feelings not sure about them x
November 1, 2013
To be honest I don't really have a cup size, I'm just flat and as for the scars I've not seen them yet as they're still covered the nurse did say they look small and were healing well, she asked if I eat lots of protein she seemed quite surprised at the rate I'm healing.
