Alyssa Milano Discusses Breast Implant Removal
Alyssa Milano, known for her role in “Who’s Your Boss?” announced on Thursday that she will undergo surgery to remove her breast implants, expressing a desire to reclaim her body from past experiences of abuse.
In a candid Instagram post, she shared a photo in a hospital gown, stating, “Today, I’m releasing those false stories. Part of me was not actually a part of me.” Milano elaborated, detailing her struggle with feeling the need to be attractive to gain love, success, and happiness.
She also mentioned her hope that her decision would help her daughter, Bella, to escape the same unhealthy pressures she faced. “In doing so, I hope that my daughter, Bella, is releasing from feeling the same unhealthy demands,” she shared with her 3.8 million followers.
Milano clarified that removing her implants is a personal decision that won’t be suitable for everyone. “I want to make it clear that many women find freedom and beauty when choosing an implant,” she acknowledged. “For me, the false story may be the right thing for them. And I am very pleased that we can find our femininity and peace on our own terms.”
She drew inspiration from women like Michelle Bizage, who have openly shared their journeys with breast augmentation, which has helped her and others navigate their own choices. “I’m also very inspired by women like Michelle Bizage who have been publicly involved in their relationship with breast augmentation surgery,” she noted.
Reflecting on her choice, Milano sees it as a vital step in her healing journey. “Today, I’m loved, I’m feminine, I’m attractive and successful. It’s not because of my implants. When I’m awake and they’re gone, I’m still all of them,” she expressed. “There’s a lot of joy in letting go of things that weren’t me in the first place.”
She wrapped up her message with a powerful affirmation: “Today, I am my real self. Today, I am free.” After her procedures, she updated her followers with gratitude for their supportive comments flooding her social media.
