Summary
After 10 years with breast implants, I've made the decision to have them removed and in this episode, I'm sharing exactly why. From the risks of keeping implants long-term, to the mindset shifts I've had about body image, to my fears around what I'll look like after surgery… I'm opening up about the full story.
We'll talk about:
* Why implants aren't "lifetime devices" and what can happen over time
* Common risks women experience, from rupture to systemic symptoms
* The possibility of links to thyroid, sinus, and neck issues
* Why I'm not getting another set, even though I've healed well and had no major issues
* My nervousness, curiosity, and hopes as I move into this next chapter
