* Vulnerable share ahead *
Today marks two years since I explanted.
Many people, even those close to me, didn’t know I underwent breast implant surgery after I had finished breast feeding my second child. I was a single mum at the time, with definite plans to remain solo. I made the decision because I hated how I looked with my deflated, empty breasts, and I just wanted to feel good in my body.
I believed I had done my due diligence in researching the ingredients used in the implants, along any potential risks. What I didn’t know at that time was the deceptive nature of the mainstream medical system; and how hard you have to look to find the truth.
I knew the time would come when I would be ready to remove the implants: when I had done the inner work to love myself unconditionally, and when the effect on my health became obvious.
Unlike many women who suffer from Breast Implant Illness, my body felt relatively healthy and vital during my time with implants. However what I didn’t realise was that some of the modalities I was using were actually causing my implants to break down and release heavy metals and toxins into my system (specifically regular infrared sauna use).
The visible result you see above (2nd image) - painful, unrelenting breakouts on my face, that I couldn’t resolve.
Two years later, I couldn’t be more grateful to feel home in my body. My scars continue to heal, I love myself precisely as I am, and I feel beautiful.
When I see women with implants now, I send them enormous amounts of love ❤️ I have a burning heart to share with them; & guide them to the truth, health & empowerment that lays on the other side of explant.
If you have been affected by BII, currently have implants or have also explanted, I would love to hear your story 🌟
