These implants were slowly killing me. I Explanted (& had nipples removed/2nd mastectomy) with @Breast Implant Illness Expert as the only other option i knew that could save my life. On May 8th, a small part of my scar on the right side started to open up. It grew to a larger/deeper wound as it acted like a valve release the pressure caused by inflammation. I followed my doctors order to a T and it healed without any infections or additional complications. This was the video i sent to my surgeon to make sure I was following his wound care/massage instructions correctly. The scar hole has since closed and im waiting for it to become even with the other scars any day now. Knowledge is power and hope this helps.”
