“I got breast implants before becoming pregnant with my third daughter. My older two daughters were still toddlers and I was lost in the cycle of navigating motherhood and finding myself. I was also, sadly, in the grip of comparison when I constantly absorbed content of women's beautiful bodies... and mine did not look like theirs. I thought getting implants would make me feel sexier - for myself and my husband. He didn't encourage me to get them, but I struggled with confidence and took it upon myself to make the change. What came next was a wave of regret...
After 2 years, I began experiencing odd symptoms: migraines, body rashes, joint point pain, light sensitivity that intensified every few months. After first, I didn't associate them with my implants because I hadn't heard of BII. My doctors couldn't figure it out. One day I saw "breast implant illness" in a headline featuring a celebrity story and I nearly stood up out of my chair. "Omg, this is what's happening." As I contemplated next steps and potential explant, I experienced a wave of clarity. I was looking at my daughters pick out their outfits for the day, mismatched and perfectly imperfect. For the first time ever, it dawned on me that they would begin growing up and will have thoughts about their own bodies. How would they feel if they learned I had fake breasts to "make myself" look different than I actually was? Aside from the health issues, I quickly realized the importance of being a positive role model for my girls - especially pertaining to body image and confidence. They say your daughters pickup a lot of what you do and how you talk about yourself & your body, so I made a vow to change things - for the better - for all of us.
I had an explant in 2023 and I have never felt better. Despite having basically nothing left, I feel healthy and proud of my body. I heard about Love, Lexxi through an influencer and immediately caught interest. Learning the Founder was a mom of girls who also experienced BII and explant made me an immediate fan - without even trying their collection first. I first purchased the Harli Wireless and it made me cry. I've never felt more beautiful in a bra, and guess what – no cup gaps either! As a busy mom, comfort is a non-negotiable. If it's not comfortable, I can't wear it. That's why I love Love, Lexxi. They focus on comfortable soft materials and have clearly understand the needs of the smaller breasted community. They are my go-to.” - Jen (verified customer) ♥️
