Alright, so, let me tell you about the time I got my implant removed. It wasn’t a big deal, really, but I figured I’d share my experience since I’ve been documenting all these body things anyway.
So, first off, I went to see this doctor, just a regular check-up, you know? And we got to talking about the implant I had in my arm. I’d had it for a while and, honestly, I was just ready for a change. So, I decided, right then and there, to get it removed.
The doctor numbed up my arm. Didn’t feel a thing during that part. Then, she made this tiny cut – seriously, it was super small. She located the implant with her fingers. After that, she used some tool to grab the implant and just pulled it right out. It was such a quick thing.
After that, she put a bandage over it. She told me I might see a little swelling and some bruising, which I did, but it wasn’t bad at all. It only last maybe three or five days. And, yeah, I felt a little sore around that area, but nothing I couldn’t handle.
- Step 1: Got to the doctor.
- Step 2: Got my arm numbed up.
- Step 3: Doctor made a small cut.
- Step 4: Doctor pulled out the implant.
- Step 5: Got a bandage on it.
Honestly, the whole thing was over before I knew it. It’s been a few weeks now, and the little cut has pretty much healed up. There’s a tiny scar, but it’s barely noticeable. And, I’ve got to say, those side effects I had before? Like, I was always feeling bloated, and my moods were all over the place, plus the occasional headaches. Well, those have definitely chilled out since the implant’s been out.
So, that’s my story about getting my implant removed. It was way easier than I thought it would be. If you’re thinking about getting yours removed, I’d say go for it. It’s not as scary as it might seem.
Recovery
Oh, and the recovery? Super chill. Just had to keep the bandage on for a few days and keep the area clean. Easy peasy.
