JenJen 15 Posted April 8, 2019 Report Share Posted April 8, 2019 Hi all, I am looking to explant my Silimed pu implants but have no idea where to start as my surgeon has retired and I’m so concerned about the Velcro-like stickiness of the furries. I have very little breast tissue but am not looking to augment again - this has scared me right off. Thinking I will need a lift an possibly an areola reduction. Yikes I’m scared of the end result.

TheFox 101 Posted April 10, 2019 Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 Hi Jen, I would highly recommend seeing a plastic surgeon in your area for a consult to remove them.. Depending on what state you are in, we could give you recommendations. I had mine removed by Professor Mark Ashton in Melbourne and was very happy with the care and results he gave me. There isnt a whole lot that can be done for the appearance post op except for perhaps opting for a breast lift or seeing a plastic surgeon like Dr Tavakoli who does lots of fat grafting on the breasts for explant patients.

JenJen 15 Posted April 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 Thanks Fox, I’m booking a couple of consultations this week. I’ll look into the fat grafting as well. Jen xx Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JenJen 15 Posted July 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Just a quick update. I explanted with lollipop lift June 13. I had drains for two days and I’m not joking when I say I had zero pain. Took one day of codeine just in case then on to panadol for about 6 days. Slight discomfort because of the drains but that’s it. Wayyyyy easier than implant. I have more breast tissue than I thought but I’m assuming they’ll settle and be a little smaller. A lot of my neurological/cardiac issues have lessened significantly already, plus the cellulite on the back of my thighs and bum has improved immensely (despite me eating like a horse atm). If you’re feeling unwell, get them out! arahia 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lion_Heart 0 Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 Hi JenJen. I am in the process of having to have my implants either removed or replaced due to a 6mm leak. I am considering removal with no replacement and would love to know how your overall results were once the swelling subsided. I’m feeling quite lonely and fearful in this journey.
