Made a choice

[Guest guest]

I wanted to let you all know that I have made my appt to get my

implants put in November 24th here in Texas. I am feeling pretty self

assured about it, I am getting the new choesive gel implants,

submuscular, in a small size, only 270cc is what we feel will be

natural on my small upper frame. I am only 105 pounds. I know that

this is kind of an anti implant site, but I really appreciate the

information here, however, it still seems to me that since I will be

in the study that I have a good chance of being fine with the new

cohesives. I talked to a lady on explantation.com and she seems to

think that they are very safe. She is very happy with her set. They

are also small, soft very natural and comfortable compared to the

saline. They also do not leak like the silicone gel, they are

comparable to a gummy bear.

Thanks to all of you for your opinions and hope for me that all goes

well. I will keep you updated if you would ike to know about how

things go for me. I hope that you all do not feel offended by my

choice to get implants. For me it is just somthing I feel i must take

the chance on, I am hopeful that since they are a new different

implant that will make a differenc, they cannot leak and they cannot

grow bacteria or mold??? anyhow I do appreciate the time you all took

to answer me and feel very much educated now and that I can go into

this surgery with a feeling of knowledge. There were a million papers

to sign and lots of stuff my surgeon went over with me. He was very

very honest in that this is a study, I will have MRI's every year

after the first year, they will monitor my health and any symptoms

that I would have. I think that is a really smart way to go about

implantation in this day and age.

I am willing to share my Dr's name off the site if anyone else is

considering getting implants. I would not get saline as i do nt feel

the fluid in them stays sterile and I would never get gels because of

the fact that all implants eventually leak, with cohesive gel

implants you have neither of those risks. It sounds like the best

option. Has anyone else here had those type of implants?

thanks
