Explanted recalled allergan implants to flat

Blue Skies Ahead

I am a 14 year Breast cancer survivor. I Explanted 3 years ago to flat after finding out about my Allergan implant recall. I Started having symptoms of breast implant illness and couldn’t bear to get new implants. For the sake of my physical, mental and emotional health I decided to be flat. The most important thing for me to do is to give myself the best chance of living my longest for my family.

I discovered a Facebook group, Fierce Flat Forward and it has been supportive and encouraging to me and many other women.
