In this episode, our guest speaker, certified physician assistant Danielle Valoras explores breast implant illness (BII)—a clinical reality that remains widely misunderstood despite affecting millions of women. She unpacks why BII lacks an official diagnosis code, yet presents with a consistent constellation of symptoms, including fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, rashes, anxiety, and autoimmune-like conditions that are frequently misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, or menopause.Danielle emphasizes the need for practitioners to consider implantable devices as contributors to immune burden. She discusses pattern recognition, the role of explantation in recovery, and why normal lab work doesn't rule out BII. Whether you're a healthcare professional, someone affected by breast implants, or curious about the intersection of implantable devices and chronic illness, this episode offers evidence-based insights you can use right away.Join us as we explore the structural and immunological mechanisms driving breast implant illness, providing practitioners with evidence-based insights to support the millions of women affected worldwide.

In this episode, certified physician assistant Danielle Valores shares her expertise cultivated from over two decades in medicine—and a decade devoted to functional medicine—by diving into an issue affecting millions: breast implants and their true impact on women's health. Drawing from both scientific research and her firsthand clinical experience working with the breast implant population for the past eight years, Danielle Valores unpacks the complex history, construction, and ongoing health controversies surrounding these devices.From the origins of breast implants in the late 19th century to modern-day procedures and the growing global health crisis affecting up to 10 million women, Danielle Valores guides listeners through discoveries about complications, systemic symptoms, and regulatory oversights. She highlights the urgent need for clinicians to recognize and support patients facing breast implant-related illnesses—a topic that's often misunderstood or overlooked in mainstream medicine.Join us on February 21, 2026, as we explore the structural and immunological mechanisms driving breast implant illness, providing practitioners with evidence-based insights to support the millions of women affected worldwide.

Dr. Mitch Shulman can be heard every weekday morning at 7:50 on The Andrew Carter Morning Show.
In this episode, Dr. Anthony Youn sits down with Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Kelly Killeen for a refreshingly honest conversation about what really works — and what doesn't — in modern cosmetic surgery. They dig into the truth about breast implants: what's changed over the years, what women should realistically expect, and how doctors are navigating the complex topic of breast implant illness. Dr. Killeen also breaks down the controversy around en bloc capsulectomy in a way that finally makes sense — including when it's necessary and when it may be more hype than help. From there, the conversation moves below the neckline. You'll hear the latest on body contouring procedures, non-surgical skin tightening, and whether those trending “miracle” treatments online actually deliver results. And if you've ever wondered how to find a plastic surgeon you can truly trust, both doctors share the exact questions they'd want their own family members to ask. This is a thoughtful, candid deep dive into cosmetic surgery — focused on safety, honesty, and helping patients make confident, informed decisions about their bodies.

Dr. Diane Mueller has spent 15 years treating the sickest patients—people who've tried everything and gotten nowhere. In this conversation, she reveals why mold and Lyme so often show up together in breast implant illness patients and how one condition creates the perfect environment for the other to emerge from decades of dormancy. She breaks down the critical difference between mold allergies and mold toxicity (hint: your doctor is probably testing for the wrong one), explains why aggressive detox protocols backfire spectacularly, and shares the exact order of treatment that actually works.

Send us a textA new breast implant called Motiva has been all over social media — but is it really the next big thing in plastic surgery or just a risky experiment?In this 100th episode of The Trillium Show, Dr. Jason Hall breaks down the hype behind Motiva implants and what sets them apart: from their RFID microchip tracker to their promise of near-zero capsular contracture rates. But as Dr. Hall explains, lower contracture rates may come with trade-offs — including a surprising 50% rate of implant malposition in early studies.You'll learn:The real science behind Motiva's “smart” implant designWhy less scar tissue around the implant isn't always a good thingThe hidden risks of early adoption in medical technologyHow surgeons choose implants, handle consignment stock, and keep costs down for patientsIf you're considering breast augmentation — or just want the truth about the latest “must-have” device trending online — this episode is a must-watch before you book your consult.

Hey, Brave Soul
Hey loves, this one's raw. It's tender. And honestly, it's been a long time coming.In this solo episode, I'm finally opening up about something I've been quietly navigating behind the scenes for years — my explant journey. Yep. Earlier this year, I made the incredibly personal (and powerful) decision to remove my breast implants after over a decade of living in a body that no longer felt like mine.What started as a few random symptoms — fatigue, eczema, rashes, brain fog — turned into a full-on quest to understand what was really going on in my body. From mold toxicity to thyroid issues and being dismissed by doctors over and over… it wasn't until I started listening to my own body's whispers that I realized — something deeper needed healing.If you've ever struggled with trusting your intuition, healing from something invisible, or feeling like your truth doesn't fit into the medical mold — this is for you.What you'll get out of this episode… Why I got implants in the first place (and what they meant to me back then)The slow unraveling of my health, the gaslighting, and the “everything looks normal” resultsWhat years of research, expert interviews, and joining online BII communities with 190,000+ women taught meWhat finally gave me the courage to book the explant surgery — and what I wish I knew soonerThe deep spiritual rebirth and reclaiming of my body that followedHow to choose the right explant surgeon and what every woman should know before surgeryThis Episode Is Sponsored by Health NagFeeling bloated, sluggish, or just off?

In recent years, advancements in implant technology have prioritized patient safety and comfort. Manufacturers have introduced more cohesive silicone gels, improved shell designs, and enhanced surface textures to minimize complications. These innovations aim to provide more natural-looking results and ensure long-term durability while addressing previous concerns associated with older implants.In this episode we hear about the current state of implants, as well as whether there is still concern about Breast Implant Illness or possible malignancy, from Aesthetic Society president, Dr. Tracy Pfeifer.

Thrust onto the public stage at 15 years old after the Taliban's brutal attack on her life, Malala Yousafzai became an international icon for resilience and bravery. Described as a reflection on a life of a woman finally taking charge of her destiny, her memoir Finding My Way has just been published. She joins Anita Rani in the Woman's Hour studio.There's a call to compensate women caught up in the scandal of faulty breast implants manufactured by a French company. The PIP scandal happened in 2012 when it emerged that the implants were filled with industrial silicone instead of medical grade silicone. The implants are far more likely to rupture than others. MPs on the Women's and Equalities Committee have been hearing calls for compensation during their inquiry into the health impacts of breast implants and other cosmetic procedures. Jan Spivey from PIP Action Campaign and Professor Carl Heneghan from The Centre for Evidence Based Medicine join us to discuss this.What if all your dreams come true and you still find yourself a bit grumpy? That's the brilliantly blunt question at the heart of Laura Smyth's stand-up tour, Born Aggy. Laura's journey into comedy wasn't exactly textbook. She left behind a career in teaching, was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer that same year and - just two weeks after finishing treatment - was on stage in Live at the Apollo. She joins Nuala McGovern in the studio.Choreographer and artist Amina Khayyam tells Anita about her new dance-theatre work, Bibi Rukiya's Reckless Daughter, which opens soon in London after a national tour. It explores how patriarchy is enforced not only by men, but across generations of women, within family structures.Singer, actor and performer, Petula Clark's career has spanned over eight decades. She sang to wartime troops in the 40s, was a 1950s child star, became a European musical icon before conquering America with her No 1 hit Downtown. She starred in Hollywood movies alongside Fred Astaire and performed on stage in musicals including The Sound of Music, Sunset Boulevard and most recently Mary Poppins. Her autobiography - Is That You, Petula? is out now and she joins Nuala to look back at her long career.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Simon Richardson

After 10 years with breast implants, I've made the decision to have them removed and in this episode, I'm sharing exactly why. From the risks of keeping implants long-term, to the mindset shifts I've had about body image, to my fears around what I'll look like after surgery… I'm opening up about the full story. We'll talk about: * Why implants aren't “lifetime devices” and what can happen over time * Common risks women experience, from rupture to systemic symptoms * The possibility of links to thyroid, sinus, and neck issues * Why I'm not getting another set, even though I've healed well and had no major issues * My nervousness, curiosity, and hopes as I move into this next chapter Hosted by Leanne Vogel.

Join todayWhat if chasing health and beauty ends up making us sick, anxious, and disconnected?This episode is all about choosing joy instead of fear and questioning the pressure to do everything “right,” from Botox to seed oils. That lens applies to everything, hair dye, kids' snacks, and even the bread at an Italian restaurant. We need to ask what actually serves our bodies and our stress levels.The internet is a great resource, but it has created immense confusion around wellness because for every idea you can easily find an opposition with just as much conviction. We explore that same middle ground in fertility, where IVF might make sense for some while natural approaches fit others. Of course, we always bring it home to motherhood and discuss screens, childcare, and the everyday mess of trying to balance it all without losing ourselves in the extremes.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[06:09] Where the line blurs between natural beauty choices and Botox[09:08] The hidden costs of breast implants and why “safe” options aren't risk-free[10:18] How losing facial expression with Botox may impact kids and human connection[22:33] Why obsessing over toxins or food rules can harm more than help[26:11] The mindset shift that transforms health choices from fear to joy[32:56] Navigating the nuanced spectrum between fertility treatments and natural approaches[38:57] How to balance being present with your kids while still holding boundaries[41:25] The real struggles of working motherhood and why guilt shows up on both sides[51:06] Why extremes create suffering and why most wisdom lives in the middleResources Mentioned:Healthy as a Mother podcast episode on How to Handle Sibling Fights with Ralphie Jacobs | Apple or Spotify or YouTubeFind more from Dr. Leah:Dr. Leah Gordon | InstagramDr. Leah Gordon | WebsiteWomanhood Wellness | WebsiteFind more from Dr. Morgan:Dr. Morgan MacDermott | InstagramDr. Morgan MacDermott | WebsiteUse code HEALTHYMOTHER and save 15% at RedmondFor 20% off your first order at Needed, use code HEALTHYMOTHERSave $260 at Lumebox, use code HEALTHYASAMOTHER

Today's episode highlights breast health concerns and educates women to make informed choices, as Dr. Robert Whitfield sits down with Dr. Alan Gonzalez, a fellow expert in plastic surgery. They break down what BII is, talk through common symptoms, and dive into complications like capsular contracture and even rare cases of lymphoma. The doctors walk listeners through the different surgical options for removing implants, including total capsulectomy, and discuss alternatives such as fat transfer for those considering a different look after explantation. They don't shy away from discussing the emotional and physical challenges that can come with implant removal, and the conversation is one all women need to hear. Bio: Dr. Alan Gonzalez Dr. Alan González is a leading plastic surgeon in Colombia and Latin America, with over 25 years of experience and more than 20,000 aesthetic and reconstructive procedures performed.

After 21 years with implants, Jennifer has reached her limits with the pain, scar tissue, and breasts that stretched far beyond what she ever imagined. What started as 420cc implants have grown from a D cup to triple Ds, leaving her hunched over with aching joints.At first, she considered swapping them out for smaller implants, but during her consultation, breast implant removal expert Dr. Luke Swistun reassured her that she had plenty of natural tissue to work with. Simply downsizing would mean another surgery down the road, and her own tissue could be sculpted into a beautiful, natural shape without any implants. That was all it took to change her mind and move forward with an explant with auto-augmentation. Jennifer is now looking forward to lighter, more natural breasts and the freedom to finally wear tube tops and spaghetti straps with confidence. With her sister Laura by her side, she shares her journey to show other women the power of being informed and choosing what feels right for their body.LinksListen to Laura's latest update on her breast augmentation, How Laura Cain Really Feels About Her Breast Implants 2 Years LaterListen to our previous episode, Happy Wife, Happy Life – A Husband's Perspective on Breast Explant SurgeryMeet San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke SwistunLearn more about breast implant removalLearn from the talented plastic surgeons inside La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre, the 12x winner of the San Diego's Best Union-Tribune Readers Poll, global winner of the 2020 MyFaceMyBody Best Cosmetic/Plastic Surgery Practice, and the 2025 winner of Best Cosmetic Surgery Group in San Diego Magazine's Best of San Diego Awards.Join hostess Monique Ramsey as she takes you inside LJCSC, where dreams become real.

"The women have been very intuitive. They know when something's not right. And I give credit to the patients for not listening to folks telling them that there's nothing wrong." - Dr. Robert Whitfield If you've ever felt like your body was trying to tell you something but medical professionals dismissed your concerns, what would it mean to finally have validation and a path forward? I've been wanting to have this conversation for years, but I waited until I could sit down with the right expert - someone who would validate what so many women have been experiencing but were told was "all in their heads." When I connected with Dr. Rob Whitfield, a world-renowned holistic plastic surgeon who's become a leading voice in breast implant illness women are facing, I knew we had to dive deep into this topic that's affecting thousands of women but still isn't being taken seriously by many in the medical community. What started as Dr. Whitfield treating cancer patients led to a groundbreaking discovery - he was finding infections around breast implants that weren't showing up in standard lab tests. This revelation changed everything and led him to develop advanced testing protocols, which revealed that 29% of explant specimens had bacterial contamination. But here's what really struck me: 83% of his patients have genetic variations that make them poor detoxifiers, which means their bodies simply can't handle the toxic burden that implants can create. The transformation stories he shared - women getting their energy back, brain fog lifting, chronic fatigue disappearing - made me realize this isn't just about breast implants, but about any foreign object our bodies are trying to cope with. What you'll learn: How to identify if you're at genetic risk - why 83% of women with implant illness have specific detox pathway problems and what this means for your health decisions The simple glutathione taste test - a revealing at-home assessment that shows whether your body is overwhelmed with toxins (this one blew my mind!) Why standard infection tests miss the problem - how Dr. Whitfield discovered bacterial contamination that regular labs couldn't detect, and what this means for all implant patients The SHARP protocol for recovery - actionable steps you can take before considering explant surgery to support your body's natural healing processes Which implants carry higher risks - the surprising truth about textured vs. smooth implants and what puts some women at greater risk Essential pre-surgical optimization strategies - how to prepare your detox pathways and reduce inflammation, whether you're considering explant or any other surgery The connection between implants and autoimmune symptoms - why fatigue, brain fog, and joint pain might not be "just perimenopause" after all Practical detox support for implant patients - specific supplements, lifestyle changes, and environmental modifications that can make a dramatic difference Love the Podcast?

Breast implants don't just change your body. They can impact your mind too.For many women, removing implants brings unexpected relief: less anxiety, deeper sleep, clearer thinking, even a sense of liberation they didn't realize they were missing. Patients often say, “I got my life back.”San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke Swistun and his wife, clinical psychologist and sleep specialist Dr. Dominika Swistun, explain how implants can fuel anxiety and disrupt sleep, and why explant surgery often lifts both physical and emotional weight.From the story of a woman who was placed on full disability for panic attacks and immediately felt like herself again after explant surgery to research showing how sleep quality shapes mental health, the Swistuns reveal the powerful—and often overlooked—connection between implants, the body, and the mind.LinksListen to our previous episode, A Sleep Specialist's Secrets for Better Mood, Skin & EnergyRead more about San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke Swistun and schedule your complimentary consultationFollow Dr. Swistun on Instagram @swistunmd to see his explant resultsLearn more about breast implant removalLearn from the talented plastic surgeons inside La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre, the 12x winner of the San Diego's Best Union-Tribune Readers Poll, global winner of the 2020 MyFaceMyBody Best Cosmetic/Plastic Surgery Practice, and the 2025 winner of Best Cosmetic Surgery Group in San Diego Magazine's Best of San Diego Awards.Join hostess Monique Ramsey as she takes you inside LJCSC, where dreams become real.

For years, the largest silicone or gummy bear implant available capped at 800cc. We break that down in this episode of Plastic Surgery Untold. It left patients who wanted, or needed, more fullness with only one option — saline implants, which often sacrificed softness for size. Now, with the arrival of Mentor Enhanced breast implants, patients have the option to go beyond 800cc — all the way up to 1450cc — while still enjoying the benefits of a gel implant. Originally developed for breast reconstruction, these implants are FDA-approved for that use and can also be used off-label in cosmetic surgery. This opens the door for both reconstruction and aesthetic patients who have limited natural breast tissue or who simply want a fuller look. Key things to know: Mentor Enhanced implants expand size options past 800cc, up to 1450cc. They were first designed for reconstruction, where larger volumes are often needed. Softer than overfilled saline implants, they keep the benefits of a gel implant. Not every patient is a candidate — safety, tissue limits, and support options like internal bras must be considered. This episode of Plastic Surgery Untold breaks down what these new implants mean for patients, the pros and cons of going larger, and how to know if this option might be right for you.
Breast implants have come a long way, and on this episode of Plastic Surgery Untold we're breaking it all down. From saline implants to today's 6th generation cohesive gel implants, the options available now are more versatile than ever. Each type comes with unique advantages, and the right choice depends on your body, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals. Saline implants offered safety and flexibility with volume adjustments, but also came with firmness and rippling. Fifth generation gummy bear implants introduced highly cohesive gel for softness and shape, reducing rippling and improving results. Now, the sixth generation implants build on this progress with 100% fill, progressive gels, and advanced shell technology, giving patients more natural results and surgeons greater control. At the end of the day, there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Some patients may benefit from the structure of 6th generation Motiva implants, while others may prefer a different option based on their anatomy or desired outcome. The key is finding what's best for you — and that's what we help patients decide every day. Key takeaways from this episode: Saline implants provided safety and flexibility, but were firmer with higher rippling. Fifth generation gummy bear implants brought softness, safety, and customization. Sixth generation implants combine natural movement with structure, helping address challenges like weight loss changes and rippling. Stay tuned to Plastic Surgery Untold for more insights as we explore the world of cosmetic surgery, the evolution of breast implants, and how technology continues to expand patient options.
