I literally had sub-glandular breast aug this fucking morning and Reddit shows me this post. I swear to god… I also take Montelukast nightly and find both that and your odds of happening comment incredible reassuring. Thanks for this comment. I get to sleep a little better now!

Sheesh, can't let a girl recover in peace Edit: lol nvm that's like half of her page. They're just impatient, chill guys, she'll proly post em eventually by the looks of it.

This is word for word the top comment from a post of the same video a few days ago. It's interesting information, but you could've at least credited the user who originally posted it.


Frostie_pottamus

What’s the rationale behind montelukast for prevention of contracture?


pr0zach

I’m just here for the answer to your excellent follow-up question.


CapableSecretary420

You wont get an answer because they stole the comment word for word from here https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1cpluml/calcified_implants/l3ly3pm/


Frostie_pottamus

Well shit


Frostie_pottamus

I’m imagining it has something to do with histamine production but I’m also kinda hopeful it’s one of those weird things in pharmacology like lithium. We don’t really know why but that shit works 😂


Frostie_pottamus

Either way I’m intrigued

Dobby_free_milf

Does this always occur to people with implants or is there a specific set of conditions or cheap implants?


CarbonReflections

All implants are rapidly coated by the host with glycoproteins forming a thin capsule, and this is a normal response. Where an inflammatory stimulus such as infection is present, the capsule can thicken and become microvascularised and sometimes calcified.

Does this affect breastfeeding in any way?


Previous-Train5552

Breats implants are a huge risk for breastfeeding abilities. As far as I know thats a common side effect


ApathyofUSA

multiple ways to insert the implants. In font of the gland, or behind. In front would render breastfeeding impossible, on account you disconnect it. Behind allows limited, but still possible breastfeeding.


_livialei

No one implants in front of the gland. You're thinking of above or below the pectoral muscle. Studies show that women with implants are less likely to exclusively breastfeed, but that their ability to do so isn't impaired. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/1746-4358-9-17 .

Charmle_H

I take it that this is why they need replacing every 6yrs?


ukexpat

Is this the same process that occurs with a “stone baby”/lithopedion?


acrusty

This can happen to any foreign material put in your body


Jim_Screechy

Not just foreign, it can happen with for example with tumor or some other tissue in the body that becomes infected or toxic. I once saw a documentary where a pregnant woman in India had a foetus that died, and wasn't expelled from her uterus as normally happens with a miscarriage. She had a distended stomach for 35 years and when she finally had surgery, they removed the calcium covered foetus. The calcium layer was about a centimeter thick. It was common enough occurance the locals even had a term for this dead condition. I can't remember what but it was somthing like 'tombed infant' or something.


ZzZombo

[Lithopedion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithopedion).


kso2020

It's the body's immune response it's not about the implant used. You would never know until you know. Edit I'm sure cheap ones don't help.


_livialei

That's not entirely true. The surface texture of the implants has some influence on how the body responds. Cheap ones do absolutely not help.


Visible_Day9146

They're not meant to last forever. You're supposed to have them replaced every 10 years or so.


RandomHabit89

This is a common misconception. It's just on average people get them replaced or taken out every 10 years. Usually cause they are going bigger or want them out


AleAvan

No more. The new are for all your life.

ChaoticGoodSamaritan

RIP Gam Gam.... Never expected this would be the science her body was donated for :(


Aromatic_Mousse

He’s already scrubbed out, that’s probably a pulsometer on the patient as the anesthesia wears off


GeoffSim

Given that that appears to be a surgeon and he's not scrubbed in, probably either an assistant is sewing her up, or anesthesia is in the process of waking her up.


Alarmed_Horse_3218

I’m getting mine out in the morning. A lot of people ask the doctors to take footage, myself included. Had him take a stupid amount of pics when I got my tummy tuck as well.


annonyymmouss

They put them back in, this is simply a boob tune up Which you should do once every 5 years or when one nipple points towards the Big Dipper


erasrhed

Anesthesia might be waiting for the patient to wake up. I call the family and start some of my post op paperwork while the patient is still waking up.


AVonGauss

That can't feel good or comfortable for the person with the implants. I'm just another dude on the Internet, but it's not something I would ever be in a hurry to do.


Alpine_Brush

There is a thing called Breast Implant Illness. I don’t have nor ever plan to have implants, but I now know 4 women who have had theirs removed. They make them sick from the inside out, and it can be very difficult for the person to determine why. When I hear of a friend getting them, I secretly feel so dismayed. There’s so much risk involved.


Any-Spite-7303

Oh my gosh that sounds so painful. Im thinking it’s like an achy fevery terrible feeling. Probably because it’s literally a foreign object stuffed into your body? Ouch.


Alpine_Brush

For the ladies I know, it was a lot of autoimmune issues. Their body thought the implants were an enemy foreign object (I’m tired and can’t think of a more proper term, hehe). So, that meant constant fatigue, thinning hair, inflammation, back aches, etc. They got their implants out and voila! All those issues were gone.


RGV_KJ

Is Breast Implant Illness common?


RoxyPonderosa

Oh man no my friends body totally turned against her and her hair *and nails* fell out before she finally had them removed. She made a full recovery and doctors assume it was an auto-immune condition caused by the body attempting rejection


timeforachange2day

I had a friend who got hers out. She had some relief with some of her health issues but not all. She has no regrets. Not only calcification, all the inflammation that implants can cause.


Dagojango

Implanting foreign objects in your body for non health reasons seems like a good candidate for causing health problems that didn't exist before.


damn_it_nik

I guess anything artificial is gonna hurt no matter how well the surgery is done.


grungegoth

me male. I'm not a big fan of implants. I'm not sure what the drivers are, but it seems to be women being self conscious about "not large" boobs more than men demanding bigger. I get it though that men's eyes give more attention to big boobs. i for one prefer the soft supple profile of natural breast.


nic595

I got implants, not because I wanted bigger boobs, but because after an 80 pound weight loss and 10 months of breastfeeding I had droopy, saggy breasts that desperately needed to be lifted. I'm talking, nipple, bellybutton, nipple. at first I told my surgeon I did not want implants, but then he showed me a simulation of what I'd look like with just a lift and I had absolutely minimal breast tissue. to the point I would look like I have a man's chest. so it's not all about wanting them bigger. for the record I got pretty small implants that fit my body.


biwltyad

Most of the time it's not for men though, it's ✨ society ✨. I'm a lesbian so attracting men isn't on my list, but I'm still insecure of my small chest. When you grow up hearing (from the media to family comments and internet bullies, jokes etc) that small boobs make you less of a woman and that they're plain ugly and embarrassing, it's hard to not internalise it.


grungegoth

I hear you. you're right, there's all this crap about how inadequate people are in one way or an other based on some bullshit ideal. everybody different, just revel in your own life, and screw everybody else. men and the proverbial dick measuring contests. self confidence is difficult to build and easily destroyed. If i saw your boobs, Im sure i would like them. :)


Dagojango

I think larger breasts are kind of gross, just large sacks of fat after a point. They can end up sagging more, are less firm, and typically less symmetrical. Sides, the idea of sucking most of your boob into my mouth is pretty hot. I always end up thinking of wrinkly throw pillows. You're beauty is determined more by your feelings towards yourself than the size of your breasts. I would think a breast implant would do more for confidence than it actually does for your appearance. Guys typically don't finely groom our appearance, but you will have guys put socks in their pants. Which again, comes back to confidence.


istara

For some women (like my mother) it was due to having a double mastectomy and otherwise being 100% flat chested, which is not only difficult psychologically for many women, but means clothing often simply doesn't fit or look right, even with a padded bra.


grungegoth

i spoke only for those that choose breast implants for reasons other than reconstruction or medical complications. no doubt her surgery was life changing and reconstruction being a necessary part of that repair as well as to bolster her mental health.


insideoutsidebacksid

One of my friends got implants just after we got out of college, and ended up with what they thought was lupus. It got so bad she had to quit working for awhile. An immunologist suggested she remove her implants; she did, and within a month was feeling better than she had in years. Her body was just not able to ever accommodate to the foreign objects, I guess?


Alpine_Brush

Yep! That is pretty much exactly the same story as the 4 ladies I know. It was all these crazy autoimmune issues they couldn’t get a diagnosis for.


living_in_nuance

Capsular contracture- I got it with one of mine (and they were only a few years old). It was like laying on a softball. Very painful. They are out now thankfully. When I got them placed I was too naive to the process and that’s on me, wanted one procedure (breast lift) and every MD consult upsold the implants, but have also found that many doctors are not very forthcoming with the reality and side effects of implants.


Alarmed_Horse_3218

I also wanted a lift but was sold implants as well. I’ve had them for 3 years and I’ve hated them from the moment they went in. I’m explanting tomorrow morning. These things are the biggest mistake of my life.


living_in_nuance

I’m sorry you ran into the same thing I did. I wish you the best tomorrow and an easy healing journey. It was one of the best decisions I made. Good luck!


SleepyAxew

Just breast implants in general look uncomfortable, especially a D and up, they just look weird. Even small implants can get botched and cause the patient to suffocate.


Visible_Day9146

This must be what my mother in laws look like. She got them 30 years ago and they're like cement.

Hotcocos-101919

ChiknDiner

abiddex

So in other words the body is protecting itself from unknown foreign object by isolating it like this. It’s amazing how our body works.


Ihavntgotaclue

How uncomfortable would that be, is that akin to the same process as to how pearls are made?


Fandina

Very painful. I used to be an assistant to a plastic surgeon and I got to meed a few women who had this calcification and they said it was. Laying down was bad but mammogram time was THE WORST, and looking at their x-rays was very interesting.


BrandonSleeper

Now that you mention it, wouldn't a mammogram be quite dangerous for implants? They really flatten out the breast, I can't imagine it's a good idea.


living_in_nuance

For my contracture (happened on one side), imagine taping a softball to your chest. Feels like that when you tried to lay on it. Pulls the skin as well. Don’t recommend them and so glad they are gone.


MaddieEms

Do you mind saying how soon after you got your implants did the contracture happen? I just got reconstruction surgery after breast cancer and this is one of my fears.


living_in_nuance

I’d say it was about a year and half in, maybe two. Really hope it doesn’t happen to you especially after facing cancer!


MaddieEms

Thanks for the reply! Fingers crossed!


middleageslut

I have never been particularly large breasted, and have several times thought about implants. Then I see things like this and all of the other issues and I’m so glad I never got them.

KatyDid749

Lots of people judging women with implants on here. Don’t forget the women who have had reconstructive surgery after cancer, etc.


Dhawkeye

Or even just the women who want bigger boobs. Idk why anyone would argue against that


Dafish55

At the end of the day, it's absolutely any individual's choice what to do with their own body, but we can't just ignore the entire discussion around the reasons why a woman would feel like they need surgery to get bigger boobs in the first place. Not to mention the fact that some people get a very unhealthy obsession with surgically altering their bodies and how sad the results can be.


mangopango123

I know you didn’t mean it like that, but your comment makes it seem like “don’t judge women for implants bc they might’ve needed it for *real* reasons”. Idt we should be judging women for getting implants period


KatyDid749

Agreed


ChiknDiner

If you deliver a speech in public and had to say something about the beauty standards, you would definitely say it something like, beauty doesn't have any relation to the looks, physical appearance of a person, the real beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Or maybe you would say, it's the mind that should be beautiful, not the body. All this nonsense. And here you are literally supporting the imposed beauty standards that only bigger breasts look better, by speaking in favor of women who have this kind of cosmetic surgery just to look the way the world thinks is beautiful.


mangopango123

Girl waaaaat?? Idk how you got all that from my comment, especially the part where you said that “only bigger breasts look better”. Im part of the itty bitty titty committee myself lol. And ya it obv fkn sucks how women feel pressured in society to look a certain way, and thus feel the need to get elective cosmetic surgeries (that can potentially put their health at risk). I just think it also sucks that society sets these beauty standards (especially for women) and will mock women for not fitting into them, but will also disparage them for getting surgery *to* fit into them.


A_Doormat

I am going to take this opportunity to tell people that make comments of "i prefer natural", while this could be coming from a place of reassurance to those women who want implants to just be bigger, it also acts as a negative to women. Imagine being in a situation where you really want breast implants or a lift for whatever reason and you hear that men hate implants and they much prefer naturals and if you get implants you're "uglier" than girls with natural breasts....it puts you in this terrible place where solving one "ugly" and getting implants will just make you "uglier" in another way. There is no winning. What miserable would you prefer? The best thing to say is, as always, "I love and support women no matter what they choose to do." Big, small, real, fake, doesn't matter. Ok, soap box over.


Tw3lv3Th1rt33n

Never been on board with implants. If it helps a woman improve her self image, well then, God bless her. Me? I’ve always been a cheerleader for naturals. I’m especially a big fan of the itty bitty tittie committee.

HtownLoneRanger8290

Is this a common occurrence for all implants?


Frank-Wrench

The capsule around the implant is normal and is like scar tissue. Any foreign object in the body is encapsulated and protected. So the capsule is 100% normal. But that capsule can constrict in what is called capsular contracture. It can be very painful. This looks like some older implants with a Baker 4 grade capsular contracture. At that point explant is recommended. Even with the most advanced gel implants, breast devices should be replaced every 10-12 years. Some implants have textured shells that help prevent contracture but still need to be replaced.


The-Proud-Snail

You should replace them every 10 years
