My niece as the gummy implants and she loves them. When I am ready for exchange surgery I am going to have them.

My exchange won't be until early next year. I finished chemo in January, and I finished radiation a month ago. I was just wondering if anyone had an opinion on them. Good Luck on your chemo journey!

Hi, @ Sheila, surprisingly I'm doing very well. Healing pretty fast and the pain is very minimal. I will have my drains removed on Friday. As far as the implants i havent really had the courage to look at them. However, my mother who has been my caregiver states they look great, pretty natural.

Just had the gummy bear implants put in on Friday...I had a nipple-sparing bilateral mastectomy with immediate reconstruction no tissue expanders were needed and so far so good. On Tuesday I have an appt with my PS so I can update on how they look.

My plastic surgeon did the following demonstration. I have the silicone gel implants. I now would love to go in and get the gummi bear implants.
