@hello1234 aww ok that really stinks! They say the gummy bear are suppose to feel more natural but I suspect the heaviness of them as well. I really loved my saline implants. But I feel at this stage in my life at age 47 they don’t last long enough I refuse to keep getting them repaired. So that’s why the doctor offered me the gummy bear silicone. But I worry about the weight of them plus my radiated breast. Explant seems to be the better option. What stage was your cancer!

@christylv would you believe I voluntarily purchased implants (without cancer) when I was 40 years old as a treat to look better. The whole implant idea turned out to be more of a pain in the neck and lots of worry, with unnecessary
surgeries. Not a treat.
Life lesson.
