Are breast implants safe—and what does the science actually tell us about their risks?In Part Two of this two-part series, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rady Rahban dives into some of the most controversial and widely debated issues surrounding breast implants, separating legitimate concerns from misinformation and marketing.Dr. Rahban breaks down the rare cancers associated with textured implants, what patients need to understand about Motiva and newer implant technology, and why the newest implant is not necessarily the best choice for every patient.He then tackles one of the most contentious topics in plastic surgery: breast implant illness (BII). What do we actually know? What remains scientifically unclear? And why is it important to acknowledge the experiences of patients with BII without generalizing those experiences to everyone with breast implants?The conversation also explores explant surgery, capsulectomy, and an often-overlooked reality of implant removal: what patients can realistically expect their breasts to look like afterward.From implant safety and BII to emerging technology and explant surgery, this episode addresses the questions and controversies patients are hearing about now—and provides the context they need to make informed decisions without being driven by fear, trends, or hype.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life.

What if something you chose years ago—something you were told was safe—was quietly contributing to chronic inflammation, brain fog, fatigue, and a mysterious decline in your health?In this powerful episode, Ashley Grace sits down with former film and television actress and Olistico Life founder Candice Barley to explore her extraordinary journey from debilitating illness to becoming one of the leading voices in the breast explant and women's holistic health community.For nearly 15 years, Candice struggled with worsening health problems without understanding their source. Eventually, her condition became so severe that she was spending most of her day in bed, experiencing full-body tremors, heart palpitations, difficulty breathing, extreme fatigue, gut issues, and rapidly worsening liver markers.Then came a moment Candice describes as divine intervention.While desperately asking what was wrong with her, Candice says she heard two words: “breast implants.”What makes her story particularly striking is that her implants weren't ruptured. They were intact.Within eight weeks, Candice had them removed. She says her symptoms began resolving and her liver markers dramatically improved, launching a years-long investigation into breast implant illness, chronic inflammation, silicone and siloxanes, mitochondrial health, detoxification, environmental toxins, and the body's response to foreign materials.Today, Candice works alongside surgeons and functional medicine practitioners, helping women better understand their bodies and make informed decisions about their health. Her message isn't based on fear—and she isn't simply telling every woman with implants to remove them. Instead, she believes women deserve more information about what may be happening inside their bodies so they can make their own informed choices.In this conversation, Ashley and Candice explore:• Candice's nearly 15-year health struggle and eventual explant• The mysterious experience that led her to question her breast implants• Why Candice believes intact implants can still affect some women• Breast implant illness and what she calls “breast implant inflammation”• Silicone, siloxanes, foreign-body response, and chronic inflammation• Brain fog, fatigue, sleep, hormones, and mitochondrial health• Why removing implants may only be the beginning of the recovery journey• The connection Candice sees between mitochondria, longevity, and biohacking• Her personal experience with Igniton products• Why IgniCognition felt to Candice like “a light turns on”• The importance of informed consent and becoming your own health advocate• How a devastating health crisis ultimately gave Candice a new purposeCandice's story ultimately goes far beyond breast implants. It's about learning to listen to your body, questioning assumptions, taking ownership of your health, and asking a simple but profound question:How good can I feel?Whether you have breast implants, have undergone an explant, are dealing with unexplained inflammation or brain fog, or are simply interested in women's health, longevity, mitochondrial health and the rapidly evolving world of biohacking, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Learn more about Candice Barley and Olistico Life, and discover Igniton's approach to the emerging frontier of quantum wellness at Igniton.com.Topics: Candice Barley, breast implant illness, breast explant, explant surgery, breast implant inflammation, silicone implants, chronic inflammation, women's health, mitochondrial health, mitochondria, brain fog, fatigue, holistic health, functional medicine, biohacking, longevity, environmental toxins, detoxification, informed consent, health optimization, IgniCognition, Igniton, quantum wellness

They dig into the mind-body-nervous system connection, why self-criticism works against recovery, and a real patient story showing how unresolved emotional history can surface during surgical recovery. ——————————————————————————

Struggling with unexplained fatigue, brain fog, pain, or inflammation? The hidden cause could be your breast implants… and here's what you can do about it.

How do you separate fact from fiction when it comes to breast implants?Breast implants remain one of the most commonly performed—and most misunderstood—procedures in aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. Despite decades of use, misinformation continues to shape how patients think about implant safety, sizing, placement, and long-term outcomes.In this first installment of a two-part series, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rady Rahban provides a comprehensive foundation for understanding breast implants before discussing the controversies surrounding them. From saline versus silicone and the truth about "gummy bear" implants to implant placement, incision options, sizing philosophy, and surgical technique, this episode is designed to give patients the knowledge they need to make informed decisions rather than emotional ones.Dr. Rahban also explains why breast implants are used for far more than cosmetic enhancement, how anatomy—not trends—should dictate implant selection, and why many of the complications seen after breast augmentation can often be traced back to poor planning or oversized implants.Whether you're considering breast augmentation, facing breast reconstruction after cancer, or simply want to better understand one of the most debated procedures in plastic surgery, this episode offers an honest, evidence-based discussion every patient should hear before making a decision.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life.

You service your car by the mile and your house by the season, but the silicone and saline devices from a cosmetic breast augmentation keep a schedule all their own. The classic answer is that you run them until they break — no surgeon, manufacturer, or FDA rule forces a replacement while the device is still performing. What sends someone back to the OR isn't a date on the calendar but events: capsular contracture that firms up or distorts the shape, and the rupture or deflation of a saline or silicone gel breast implant. Your breasts change on their own, too. Pregnancy, weight shifts, and gravity add droopiness over 10, 20, or 30 years, until the implant and the breast can stop lining up. Dr. Bass and co-host Summer Hardy walk through when a size change, a breast lift, or a full swap makes sense, whether an implant can ever be reused, and why an intact device is far easier to remove than a ruptured one. The bottom line: a touch of firmness or mild asymmetry usually isn't worth a trip to the OR, but any real change in the size, shape, firmness, or feel of the breast means it's time to call your surgeon right away. You can run implants until they break — or get more out of them, and a better result, with a little upkeep along the way. Questions answered by this episode: 1. Do breast implants need to be replaced on a schedule? 2. How long do breast implants actually last? 3. What is capsular contracture, and does it mean you need surgery? 4. How do you know if a breast implant has ruptured or deflated? 5. What is the rupture or deflation rate in the first 10 years? 6. Can a breast implant be reused during a revision, or does it have to be replaced? 7. How do pregnancy, weight changes, and aging affect the breasts after augmentation? 8. When does it make sense to add a breast lift while replacing implants? 9. Will a mammogram damage a breast implant? 10. How often should you see your plastic surgeon after breast augmentation?

Dr. Swistun says the moment a woman decides her implants have to come out is his best chance to help — there's no right or wrong answer, only her goals. And he's blunt about one thing: put a new breast implant back in and you're automatically signing up for another surgery down the road, because no breast implants last forever.Monique Ramsey gathers the show's best explant surgery conversations into one guide — the decision, the operation, and the after.Dr. Swistun explains what a total intact capsulectomy actually is, why getting back to 'factory settings' takes far longer than putting an implant in, and how auto-augmentation reshapes the tissue you already have so you can stay full without an implant.Then real women — Jennifer, Caroline, and Amie — describe what removal was actually like, and one husband, Michael, shares what it was like to watch his wife go through it, skeptical at first and won over after.One woman put it in a way that sticks: she felt like a prisoner in her own body, and now she feels liberated.

Dr. Whitfield discusses his team's published research analyzing capsule tissue from hundreds of patients using PCR testing, and what that data shows about bacterial contamination rates compared to smaller prior studies. He explains how genetic variation in detox pathways — including methylation and glucuronidation — may influence how patients respond to surgical devices, and how his team uses this information as part of pre-surgical planning.

I've been trying to book this guest for over ten years. Why? Because almost no one in medicine is willing to talk honestly about what's actually happening inside breast implants, including bacteria, biofilm, and the heavy metals leaching into your body. I finally sat down with Dr. Robert Whitfield, one of the few surgeons in the country specializing in breast implant illness and explant surgery. We explore a 2024 study he published showing nearly 30% of implant capsules tested positive for bacterial contamination, why he removes the entire capsule during explant, and which heavy metals show up most often. He also talks about potential issues with infrared saunas if you still have implants, and how patients can experience dramatic symptom relief after explant surgery and removal of the capsule tissue. If you have implants or are simply implant-curious, tune in and learn what your plastic surgeon likely isn't telling you.   "In 2024, we published a large series of PCR tests. We found that 29% of 694 consecutive specimens had bacterial contamination." ~ Dr. Robert Whitfield   In This Episode: - Dr. Whitfield's reconstructive surgery background  - How bacteria attach to implants  - What is breast implant illness?   - What toxins are in breast implants?  - Common symptoms of breast implant illness  - Should you use a sauna with implants?  - Current understanding of implant safety in the medical community - Patient recovery stories after removing implants - How to prepare for explant surgery  - Do all implants leak heavy metals?    Products & Resources Mentioned: Educational Resources on Breast Implants: Explore additional information, study results, and podcasts on breast implants, or book a consultation call with Dr. Robert Whitfield at https://www.drrobertwhitfield.com/  Join Dr. Whitfield's Private Community: Access uncensored education, holistic health protocols, and exclusive weekly lives at https://drrobscircle.com/  Buy Dr. Whitfield's First Book: The SHARP Method-- Strategic Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program https://amzn.eu/d/01ByBgMQ  His Latest  Book:  Breast Implants, Explant Surgery, and Breast Implant Illness with Robert Whitfield, MD– A Comprehensive Guidebook to Fat Transfer, Holistic Surgical Recovery, and the SHARP MethodTM https://amzn.eu/d/09fB26Qm  Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Get 15% off sitewide, plus free shipping and a 12-month warranty, with code WENDY at https://boncharge.com/  Organifi Happy Drops: Save 20% with code MYERSDETOX at https://organifi.com/myersdetox     Heavy Metals Quiz: Check your toxicity score and receive a free video series on how to detox your body.

Dr. Kim shares his own health crisis (a heart attack at age 33 caused by undiagnosed Bartonella and mold toxin exposure) and explains how mycotoxins like aflatoxin, ochratoxin, and gliotoxin damage cell membranes, disrupt bile flow, fuel biofilm formation, and contribute to neuroinflammation, mast cell activation, and parasitic susceptibility. The conversation dives deep into the science of cell danger response, phospholipid membrane repair, drainage pathway support, and why aggressive detox protocols can backfire without proper preparation. Dr. Whitfield connects these findings to his clinical work with breast implant illness patients, including PCR testing data showing biofilm formation on breast implants and its relationship to environmental toxin exposure. Topics covered include: How mold toxicity can mimic cardiac symptoms and trigger misdiagnosis The role of phospholipids, SPM-based fish oil, and essential fatty acids in repairing damaged cell membranes Why biofilms form and how they protect bacteria, mold, and heavy metals from the immune system The gut-liver-bile connection and enterohepatic recirculation of mycotoxins Nervous system regulation, mast cell activation, and why "safety" must come before aggressive detox Practical guidance on binders, glutathione precautions, sleep hygiene, and pre-surgical detox protocols—————————————————————————— Ready to take the next step?Book a Discovery Call → https://discovery.drrobertwhitfield.com (https://discovery.drrobertwhitfield.com/)Learn about the SHARP Method (Strategic Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program) → https://www.drrobertwhitfield.com/sharpJoin Dr. Rob's Circle (private community, 390+ members) → https://drrobscircle.com (https://drrobscircle.com/)——————————————————————————Dr. Robert Whitfield, MD, FACS is a board-certified plastic surgeon in Austin, Texas, specializing in breast implant illness (BII), explant surgery, and holistic surgical recovery.

Breast Implant Illness (BII) refers to a collection of systemic symptoms that some patients report experiencing following breast augmentation with implants. These symptoms are not currently recognized as a formal medical diagnosis, but the topic has gained increasing attention in both patient communities and clinical discussions. The goal of this segment is to provide an evidence-based, balanced conversation about what is currently known, what remains under investigation, and how physicians are approaching patients who present with these concerns.

Is the skepticism around breast implant illness driven by science or the cosmetic surgery industry? What protocols (for keeping & removing) are working for patients? Robert Whitfield, MD is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, a board-certified breast explant specialist who has performed over 2,000 explant procedures, published 15 peer reviewed publications & testified at the 2019 FDA hearing. He is a leading Breast Implant Illness expert who takes a functional approach to patient recovery.  In this episode, he says what your surgeon won't, you'll hear real symptoms from a listener, why removing them isn't enough & implant alternatives. If you liked this episode, you'll also like episode 290: ALLERGIES OR AEROSOLS?

Send us Fan MailBreast implant sizing is one of the most important conversations in any breast augmentation consultation, but bigger is not always better.In this episode of The Trillium Show, Dr. Jason Hall is joined by Dr. Jessica Walker to talk about how they help patients choose the right implant size based on goals, anatomy, measurements, frame, tissue quality, and long-term outcomes. They discuss why cup size and implant volume alone can be misleading, why goal photos can be helpful, and what patients should understand before choosing a larger implant.They also explain what can happen when implants are too large for a patient's body, including stretched skin, thinning breast tissue, neck and back pain, more complicated revision surgery, and why using a bigger implant to avoid a lift is usually not the right answer.If you are considering breast augmentation, this conversation will help you think beyond the number of cc's and focus on what is safe, proportional, and sustainable for your body long-term. 

Send us Fan MailWhat if the thing you did to feel more confident was quietly affecting your health?In this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino welcomes back Vivienne Reign for a powerful conversation about breast implant illness, plastic toxicity, beauty standards, and what it really means to age well.Vivienne shares how she began noticing symptoms like brain fog, inflammation, food sensitivities, rashes, swollen lymph nodes, fatigue, puffiness, and unexplained weight gain before discovering elevated plastic toxicity in her body. That discovery led her to question whether her breast implants could be contributing to her symptoms.Timestamps00:00 – What Is Breast Implant Illness?01:15 – Vivienne's Symptoms Begin02:14 – Discovering Plastic Toxicity03:00 – How Implants Break Down Over Time04:20 – What Women Need To Know About Explants06:24 – Why Women Get Breast Implants07:32 – Alternatives To Implants09:20 – Are Newer Implants Really Safer?10:16 – Botox, Fillers & Toxic Beauty13:00 – Food Is The Foundation14:18 – Natural Alternatives To Botox15:12 – Lymphatic Drainage & Red Light Therapy17:15 – Stem Cells & Skincare21:18 – The Rise Of Graceful Aging22:59 – Why Health Is The New Beauty25:34 – The Problem With Quick Fixes26:20 – Weight Loss Drugs & Beauty Culture28:15 – Your Environment Shapes You30:37 – The Moment Everything Changed33:02 – Stop Normalizing Fatigue37:01 – Symptoms You Shouldn't Ignore37:31 – Functional Testing & Root Causes39:08 – Investing In Your Health40:23 – Your Body Is Your Greatest Asset42:19 – Honest Conversations About Health43:09 – Where To Find Vivienne Reign-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 171 — Why does one patient get a breast implant and feel fine, while another spirals into fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, and a diagnosis no one can explain? The answer may lie in mast cells. In this episode, Dr. Robert Whitfield sits down with Dr. Tania Dempsey — one of the country's leading experts in Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) — to explore a connection that most physicians are not trained to recognize: the relationship between implantable devices, chronic immune activation, and conditions like MCAS, POTS, and hypermobility syndrome. What you'll learn in this episode: What Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) actually is — and why up to 20% of the population may have it The top 10 symptoms MCAS patients present with, from fatigue and brain fog to fibromyalgia and food sensitivities Why the MCAS, POTS, and hypermobility triad appears so frequently together How breast implants interact with the immune system at the tissue level — including new research showing an upregulated plasma cell and B-cell response in certain patients The role of biofilm, bacterial contamination (Staph epidermidis & Cutibacterium acnes), and oxylipin 10-HOME in driving chronic inflammation Why GLP-1 medications are showing surprising results in MCAS patients How mold, glyphosate, organophosphates, and hormonal changes can trigger or worsen MCAS Practical, low-cost steps to begin lowering your baseline inflammation today How anesthesia teams can reduce MCAS-related risk during explant surgery This conversation bridges two specialties that rarely share the same stage — reconstructive plastic surgery and immunology — because the patient population increasingly demands it. Whether you are navigating unexplained symptoms, considering explant surgery, or simply want to understand why some bodies react so differently to the same devices and environments, this episode provides a clinically grounded, measured, and actionable framework.

What does real recovery actually look like one year out? In Episode 170, Dr. Robert Whitfield is joined by Hannah, a patient from Montana who is marking her one-year anniversary since implant removal surgery. Hannah spent nearly three and a half years seeking answers — cycling through specialists, ERs, and countless tests — before finding a clinical path that addressed what was actually happening in her body. Her story is detailed, honest, and covers what most recovery conversations leave out. What Hannah experienced before surgery: Brain fog so severe that if something wasn't written down, it was forgotten. Extreme fatigue that kept her on the couch most of the day. Significant hair loss — particularly difficult given her two decades in the hair industry. Food sensitivities so severe she could only tolerate bananas and avocados, and a two-year period where animal protein triggered anaphylactic reactions requiring an EpiPen. Heart palpitations, GI disruption, and convulsions that prompted ER visits — with every blood panel coming back within normal range. What the clinical picture actually showed: Hannah's toxicity profile revealed elevated tin (at seven times the normal level — a known neurotoxin), BPA, glyphosate, dimethyl phosphates, aflatoxins, and ochratoxins. Her PCR results indicated bacterial contamination on the implant. Dr. Whitfield explains how this combination — compromised detox genetics, high toxic burden, and a device-associated bacterial load — creates the environment that drives the systemic symptoms Hannah was experiencing. Where she is one year later: Energy restored. Animal protein reintroduced successfully. Brain fog resolved. Landscaping her yard. Making and keeping plans with friends. And acutely aware of her environment in a way she wasn't before — including recognizing a mold-contaminated Airbnb in San Diego that her cleared system immediately flagged. Dr. Whitfield and Hannah also discuss: Why the detox protocol after surgery matters as much as the procedure itself — and why stopping early is one of the most common mistakes The role of a supportive partner and community in recovery, and how to navigate the process without one Why some patients feel an initial lift after surgery before the deeper recovery work begins The real timeline of healing: week over week, month over month — not a straight line The censorship and algorithmic suppression of implant-related health education, and where to find uncensored conversations Hannah's advice to women who are hesitant: You can't put a price tag on your health. You're going to pay for it either way.

Today's episode is one of the most personal and emotional conversations we've shared. I recently interviewed a cancer survivor who traveled from Nebraska with her husband after making the difficult decision to undergo explant surgery following previous reconstruction. Together, we discuss her journey through cancer treatment, reconstruction, chronic health struggles, and ultimately her decision to remove her implants and pursue simultaneous fat transfer as part of her healing process. Because of the challenges created by prior reconstruction and tissue changes, she later returned for an additional fat transfer procedure to further improve the contour and appearance of her chest. In this interview, she speaks openly about the physical and emotional aspects of that journey, including preparation, surgery, recovery, and what it meant to finally feel heard and supported. This episode also highlights the principles behind the SHARP methodology — the preparation, recovery strategies, post-operative support, and comprehensive approach we use to help patients optimize healing and recovery. As many of you know, discussing implant-related illness and explant surgery online has increasingly resulted in censorship and suppression across social media platforms. Despite that, stories like this deserve to be shared because they may help other patients feel less isolated and more empowered in their own healthcare decisions. This patient reviewed the interview personally and gave us permission to share her experience in the hope that it may help others navigating similar challenges. If you or someone you love has undergone reconstruction, implant surgery, explant surgery, or cancer treatment, this is an important and very real conversation.

In this episode:I sit down with Dr. Robert Whitfield to explore the growing conversation around breast implant illness, including the symptoms, research, and potential root causes that may be contributing to chronic inflammation and immune system dysfunction. We discuss everything from bacterial biofilms and genetics to mold exposure, hormone balance, stress, and recovery after explant surgery, along with practical ways to support your health and healing journey regardless of where you are starting.Dr. Robert Whitfield is a board-certified plastic surgeon and researcher who specializes in breast implant illness, explant surgery, and holistic recovery support.

Two women have told a BBC Panorama investigation they were raped during the filming of one of Channel 4's biggest shows, Married at First Sight UK, while a third has described an allegation of a non-consensual sex act. Channel 4 has now removed all episodes of the programme from its streaming and linear services and commissioned an external review of welfare on the show. The programme makers CPL have said its welfare system was ‘gold standard'. Nuala McGovern is joined by BBC News' Lizo Mzimba and Helen Wood, Professor of Media and Cultural Studies at the University of Aston in Birmingham.Many women live with fibromyalgia for life - chronic pain, exhaustion, brain fog - with no clear cure. But some doctors say that for women with breast implants, the story may be different. Rheumatology Professor Jan Willem Cohen Tervaer from the University of Alberta explains why some patients improve after their implants are removed, and why he believes the condition of Breast Implant Illness deserves recognition from the medical community. Nuala is also joined by Professor Lynda Wyld, President Elect of the Association of Breast Surgeons in the UK to explain the position currently held by the medical profession in the UK. We discuss a new play that unfolds entirely in the ladies loos. April Hope Miller wrote and performs in ‘Flush', it was a hit at the Edinburgh Fringe and it's just opened at the Arcola Theatre in London. April and co-star Jazz Jenkins tell Nuala why the real drama on any night out is always to be found in the women's toilets. And why it took an ensemble cast of five, playing no less 16 different characters between them, to capture something universal about women's lives.School closures in England may be disproportionately affecting children with special educational needs and disabilities. File on Four Investigates has been looking into this in the run up to government reforms of the SEND system, and Nuala is joined by BBC education reporter and former primary school teacher Hayley Clarke. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Helen Fitzhenry

We're talking about Breast Implant Illness — BII. An estimated 400,000 women believe their implants are making them sick. Tens of thousands of adverse reports have been filed with the FDA. And with roughly 300,000 implant procedures performed every year in the US, this is a public health conversation we can no longer ignore. Women are reporting fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, hair loss, and autoimmune-like symptoms — often dismissed by doctors for years. The research is ongoing, but the FDA has added new warnings, and the conversation around patient safety and informed consent is finally gaining real traction Our guest, Sean Doherty, MD, FACS, is a board-certified plastic surgeon in Boston. Dr. Doherty is seeing an increasing number of patients seeking guidance on BII, including those considering implant removal or replacement. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1.    How breast implant illness (BII) is defined, and what has contributed to the growing awareness around it in recent years The most common symptoms in patients who are concerned about BII When a patient is concerned about possible breast implant illness, what the evaluation process looks like—from the first conversation through deciding next steps The risk factors or patient profiles that may make someone more susceptible to complications or symptoms associated with breast implants For patients who believe they may be experiencing BII, the options that are available to them How the field of plastic surgery has evolved in recent years to better prioritize patient safety, informed consent, and long-term outcomes when it comes to breast implants Is there such a thing as a safer implant or one designed for autoimmune patients? è You can learn about his services at: https://www.seandohertymd.com/   è You can find the links in the show notes at https://ronandlisa.com/podcast/. è Be sure to leave a review or rating – five stars are always appreciated.

More cosmetic surgeries are performed on the chest than almost anywhere else on the body, with breast implants leading the way. Not long ago, “bigger is better” defined the ideal, but we're seeing a shift toward smaller, more natural results. So what's driving that change? Today, we're diving into the world of chest surgery, and what it reveals about beauty, power, and the making of the “ideal” breast. I am joined once again by Sarah Thornton, a sociologist, non-fiction writer, and author of four critically acclaimed books. Thornton's most widely read book is Seven Days in the Art World, which is translated into over 20 languages. Her latest is titled, Tits Up: The Top Half of Women's Liberation, which explores the significance of breasts across radically different social worlds. Some of the specific topics we explore include: How common are breast implants today? How have aesthetic goals shifted over time? What shapes patient preferences in augmentation? Are there cross-cultural differences in breast augmentation? How do augmentation, reconstruction, and reduction differ in purpose and meaning? Check out Sarah’s website to learn more about her work.

Breast implants may have become increasingly common—but for some women, the experience doesn't always unfold the way they expected. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Jonathan Kanevsky, a board-certified plastic surgeon who made the decision to stop performing breast implant procedures after years of listening closely to his patients. We explore what he started seeing, how to approach this decision, and what alternatives are now available. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. You'll learn: • How to tell if your symptoms may be connected to breast implants • What to consider before deciding to remove them • Why recovery after explant looks different for everyone • What safer, more natural alternatives are available today • How to support your body before and after surgery for better recovery This is a complex and deeply personal decision. My hope is that understanding the full picture helps you make a more informed one.

357: Where your mind goes, your body follows. In this episode, I sit down with former Bikini Olympia champion Courtney King to talk about the deeper side of health, beyond diets, workouts, and supplements. Courtney opens up about losing her period for years, struggling with severe gut issues, and hitting a breaking point that forced her to completely rethink what healing actually means. From hormonal imbalances and breast implant removal to emotional trauma and mindset shifts, this conversation goes far beyond surface-level wellness. Topics Discussed: → Can mindset affect gut health symptoms → How stress impacts hormones and digestion → Can emotional trauma cause physical illness → Why am I bloated all the time → How to heal gut without strict diet → Does anxiety affect digestion and weight → How to reset nervous system naturally As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.
