I'm going on my third consult on Jan.16th. for getting explanted. I got my 1st mentor set Feb.2000. I went from a 34B to a 34D. I had asked for a C. In may of 2004 my left implant (saline) failed. I didn't even know it that morning till I went to shower, I was mortified. I called the PS & was in surgery in three days. It didn't make me sick & as I said I didn't feel the failure. The next set of mentor saline implants were 100cc more in size making me a very fluffy D. Like tires the PS replaced both the left & the right.

For over 6 months I've known that my 20 year old silicone implants have both ruptured and need to be removed

For over 6 months I've known that my 20 year old silicone implants have both ruptured and need to be removed. The implant removal will be taken care of through Medi-care, however it will not pay for a lift or smaller saline ones implanted. I have many issues, To get a visual I'll attach some photos. First let's back up, as to how I got here.

Still trying to get up the nerve to call the surgeon

I, too, am almost 56 years old and have had implants since I was 30. I was very tiny, an AA-A cup at best. After my first set, I developed what I later learned were contractures and lived with them that way for years. After an episode of skin cancer which sent me to a plastic surgeon, I learned they were NOT supposed to be like that, and had them replaced as he felt I should not just explant. That was five years ago, and since then I have had at least three contracture release surgeries.

I got 415cc under muscle and asked the surgeon for full C cup but ended up going to E/F!

Hi there Guest...the comment from Rach above "This guy sounds really toxic to you and its my guess that he's the reason you're feeling so insecure" is 100% correct.

I had implants put in 12 years ago and now want my own body back

Hi everyone, I have been so encouraged by reading your stories. I had implants put in 12 years ago and now want my own body back despite everyone now telling me that they had no idea and that they always thought I had great boobs.I was a 32A and went to a 32 D which wasn't what i asked for: I only wanted to be a 32C maximum. My op is booked for a week on Wednesday and i keep getting very scared. The thing is, my surgeon is going to remove the implants and then do a breast lift which means cutting up to the nipple and removing the nipple and then placing it higher on the breast.
