Enbloc explantation

I ’ve had a LONG journey. I wish at 21 when I got my 1st set of Breast Implants I knew what I now know at 42 years old. It would have saved me 20 +years of bs. #YouLiveAndYouLearn. My goal now is to bring awareness to it.

I’ve had 4 sets of #BreastImplants 1st set at age 21 (saline), 2nd & 3rd set at age 24. I had silicone then saline 6 month’s later due to capsular contracture. Then I had a Botched explant at age 25. I Lived 12 years with severe muscle spasms & deformed breast. (All 3 sets & explant were done in Utah by the same ps).

I applied to #BOTCHED in 2016 & was Blessed to have Dr. Dubrow fix my breast 01/2017. He did a Amazing job. My body simply Rejected the implants. I immediately had a capsular contracture in my right breast then had another surgery which wasn’t aired/talked about in 02/2017.

From that point forward I started having all kind of weird stuff happening with my body. Severe Inflammation, chronic pain, muscle spasms, joint pain, insomnia, plus a lot more.

I didn’t talk to Anyone about it other than my doctor. I had several test ran on me & the Only thing showing an issue (test wise) was my #BloodPressure. It sky rocket so I had to get on BP medicine again. I talked to several ps & was quoted all kinds of Crazy prices. It's a trip you can get breast implants for 5gs yet it cost damn near double that Just to remove them correctly...

I finally got a Better job & #Kaiser.
The 1st doctor & her head Nurse I saw at Kaiser said they Believed that I had #BreastImplantIllnes. My doctor then put in a referral for #DrEby #Kaiser. Like 3 weeks later I talked to his staff then him. He is AMAZING & told me my options. COVID came & pushed everything back. Dr. Eby Still made a call during that time to see how I was doing & if I had anymore complications. He then told me they were backed up 3 months but once they started surgery someone would call to schedule surgery.

I got the call in September, I had my enbloc explantation 09/30/20. & I feel So MUCH Better already. Even 14 days later, still swollen but oddly feeling lighter & with these damn Drains Still in. (They are now 30/35cc in 24hrs & need to be lower than 20ccs). So hopefully this week they come out!

I’m so Grateful my insurance approved & paid for my surgery. I was Blessed to get Dr. Eby & his staff. They are AMAZING!!!

No matter who Your health insuranc/regular doctor is, keep Documents of All the test You have due to #BII. If needed ask for a 2nd, even 3rd opinion & make certain it’s Documented in your chart that you asked for a another opinion! Trust this will help.

I’m sharing my journey Praying it helps someone else. I didn't get a lift & one boob is bigger than the other (always has been). & there's a chance they

Kind regards,
Chanel the #BriskWalkLady

PLEASE do your research b4 getting plastic surgery.

I don't know any surgeons in CA anymore, Glenn in Australua fir 25 years, I had my first lift in Beverly Hill 32 years ago he's probably retired , but I'm sure a reduction and revision by a board certified surgeon can fix you up. You've certainly waited long enough. Lots of luck with your revision/reduction how ever you go.

I have a suggestion but I think it will be like one in a million chance. Send some photos and a short video to the doctors show telling them your story, and showing them your results. You can help younger women stop and take a look at themselves and hopefully the next generation of women will love themselves. Perhaps they can find you the best surgeon etc.  I wish you the best of luck and I know that there has to be something that can be done. You have so much breast tissue, but it looks like the tissue has thinned out on the bottom and scar tissue attached to your muscles perhaps. I am also experiencing issues after explantation as well.
