8 week update
Okay so here we are at 8 weeks after explant. I am going to be as honest as I can from an aesthetic/surgical standpoint for those who want to know. Positives: I have gained a little bit of weight (which is something I was aiming for) so I believe my breasts have filled out slightly. They aren't as saggy as I had thought. I have realized that I have a long chest so my breasts sit lower on my body than on most women but the position of my crease to my nipple really isn't that far off. Almost all of my pain/discomfort has subsided other than an occasional slight numbness/soreness on my trouble side. I love the look of my breasts from the front.
Negatives: even though I only had my implants in for 6 weeks I have developed significant stretch marks which can be seen and felt (although not in the pictures) which cause my breasts to sag a little more. My scars aren't healing as nicely as they started to after the first surgery. They seem to be more raised this time and lastly, due to the muscle being detached for implantation I have a weird uncomfortable movement when utilizing my chest muscles of the muscles jumping as it is no longer attached to the ribs.
With that being said. I would have my implants removed ten times over again. I still have zero regrets in doing so. I know I have made the right choice with this second surgery. I feel comfortable and healthy and I still feel sexy because I know that sexiness comes from confidence regardless of breasts size/position/shape. This makes it hard to even label the "negatives" as true negatives because I think they are just normalcies of the female body (other than the muscle distortion of course). I hope all of you ladies are doing well on your explant journeys. Love to you all :)

3 weeks out!
Hi all of my lovelies. Today is my 3 week post explant mark. I have my follow up scheduled for Monday with my doctor. So comparing my immediate post op pictures with these, I do feel as though they have flattened back out a bit and that the post op fullness I had was more of a swelling affect. Regardless, mentally, I feel wonderful. It's amazing how much my perspective has changed on not only my own body, but my view on other bodies. I find myself being drawn to smaller and or natural breasts and thinking they are just absolutely beautiful. Beautiful the way they were intended to be. What a colorless world it would be if everybody was the same cookie cutter version of a "women". I do still have some minor pain and discomfort. My right breast (the flatter one) has had pain since day one of my initial implant surgery and is still existent 3 weeks post explant. I am hoping this subsides and will ask the doctor about it Monday. If I said I didn't have regrets about these surgeries I would be lying. I regret putting my body through trama and I regret spending ten thousand dollars that I did not have to spend in the first place. Those are facts. Here are some more. I feel more confident than I have ever felt in my life. I feel beautiful, I feel whole, and I feel grateful. I would like to thank all of you ladies because you have been the friends I needed and have supported me through this process and for that I am so very appreciative. For anyone who is having a hard time with whether it be with explant or regret over implant or with anything really, here is a quote from one of my favorite poets. "What hurts you blesses you. Darkness is your candle" - Rumi . How I interpret this is that we learn and transform from our mistakes. Our pain and strife, our darkest moments are what pushes us to the light, pushes us to move forward to something beautiful. Nobody should live in guilt from their mistakes. We wouldn't be who we are today, or become who we are destined to become tomorrow if it weren't for our experiences of who we were yesterday. Love to you all!
