6 weeks post...
It's been 6 weeks and I thought I would post some pictures. My breasts are smaller, more wrinkled and deflated since my last post since all the swelling is gone, but the most concerning thing is what appears to be tethering on the right. It is quite noticable in the picture (see the crease going upward on the inside of the right breast), but I am being patient since it takes time for scars to soften. As long as it doesn't get any worse, it'll be okay. I have been massaging it so hopefully that will help.
Also, the only person who knows I had the surgery is my husband. In case there is someone else out there who is concerned about people noticing you had surgery, I wanted to mention that I too was very concerned about that. I finally figured out that a 34B push up bra was the answer and believe it or not, I fill it out on the left and almost on the right. The maidenform dream bra (09839) is my favorite and it is so comfortable you almost forget you are wearing one. I am too small to actually push anything up, but the extra padding inside the bra, seems to enable me to wear a bigger cup bra so my smaller size is not as noticeable. In this bra, my adult sons have not noticed or my extended family, This style is discontinued, but I found 2 on the clearance rack at Kohl's and it is available on ebay and Amazon in certain sizes. I hope this helps someone who is trying to conceal their explant. I should also add that my husband is also the only one who knew for sure I had implants in the first place, so I wanted to keep it that way. ????
For some reason I can't upload the photos right now so I will try again later.

Good luck with your explant. I am going to do another update at 4 weeks and post another picture. I think they are a little sadder looker now that all the swelling is gone, but it is nothing a good padded bra can't fix. I am still happy I removed my implants. I hope all will go well for you too.

You look great! I am doing the same thing with this Dr. only I am doing a lift at the same time. Is everything fluffing up nicely for you?

It's been 4 weeks now and since all the swelling is gone, they look more droopy and a little wrinkled. I wish I had removed them when I was I younger and my skin was more elastic. Having said all that, I am still happy to have them out. Good luck with your explant, and post pictures, if you like, so we can all follow your progress. I plan to post more pictures soon also.
