Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Hi Ladies, I made it through my explant and am only now just up to posting. I had my first shower today (with the help of my mother) and am feeling very depressed about the results of my surgery. The little tissue I have left is loose and mushy and shapeless. I know that there is some swelling, but I look totally deflated. I had a donut lift at the time of explant and thought that would help, but so far I do not feel hopeful. I know this is a surgery that requires some patience. Any guidance would help me out right now. As soon as I woke up in recovery I felt so happy that my implants were finally out of me (after more than 10 years). I am still happy they are gone, I am just feeling really self conscious and shocked by how dramatic the difference is. I nervous about my results. I had my implants under the muscle and so there is all kinds of stitching inside which is tight and sore and keeps me from moving my arms. I know many of you have already been explanted, please share your experiences of the first week with me. I need some hope right now. Thanks, Katy.
