Do you have breast implants? Have you thought about getting them or do you know others with them?  The conversation about breast implants' impact on health is a real one for a lot of women. We get into all the cases: You have implants and feel fine  You have implants and are feeling symptoms you have just chalked up to menopause  Whether for yourself, or to share with a friend or daughter, this one doesn't end with breast implants. It only starts there.  Stay all the way to the end for the no-cut facelift details!    My Guest: Dr. Robert Whitfield, MD is AMERICA'S BREAST IMPLANT ILLNESS EXPERT™ with over 25 years of experience as a plastic surgeon and more than 16 years board-certified. He specializes in Breast Implant Illness (BII), explant surgery, and advanced cosmetic procedures like his signature “No-Cut” Facelift. He is also the creator of SHARP (Strategic Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program)—a protocol designed to reduce inflammation and support both pre- and post-surgical healing. Dr. Whitfield earned his medical degree from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, followed by surgical training and a plastic surgery residency at Indiana University Medical Center, and a microsurgery fellowship in Nevada. He later taught at the Medical College of Wisconsin before moving to Austin in 2012. He began private practice in 2017.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:07:42] What is Breast Implant Illness (BII)? [00:08:01] What are the BII signs and symptoms? [00:08:43] Why does BII occur, and how common is it? [00:15:36] What to do if you suspect you have BII? What tests are available? Is there a holistic approach? [00:22:52] Is it covered by insurance?  [00:22:36] How is BII treated? [00:30:11] What is the No-cut Facelift?   What is Breast Implant Illness (BII)? Chronic inflammatory response to breast implants. Implants are foreign bodies which may cause ~29% chance of bacterial contamination, not mold.   What are the Symptoms? Brain fog Fatigue and loss of motivation Gastrointestinal issues (e.g. bloating) Joint pain Hormonal imbalance Thyroid dysfunction   What to Do If You Suspect BII? Educate yourself through long-form content and patient stories Consider testing for: Detox capabilities Hormonal panels Gut health and infections Look into explant surgery with comprehensive detox and recovery (e.g. SHARP protocol)   The No-Cut Facelift Designed to lift and rejuvenate without surgery or visible scars The Procedure: Fiber optics for deep neck tightening FaceTite (radiofrequency tightening beneath the skin) Micro-coring: removes tiny pieces of skin to tighten surface without visible scars Benefits: Natural results with minimal scarring Boosts collagen production Customizable depending on the patient's skin, hormones, and detox status   Key Takeaways BII is real and often overlooked, frequently mistaken for menopause or autoimmune disorders. Chronic inflammation and bacterial contamination (not mold) are major culprits. A new biomarker test (oxylipin 10-HOME) could soon improve diagnosis. Personal genetics, lifestyle, and environmental exposure significantly influence risk. Explant surgery should be holistic, addressing toxins, hormones, and gut health before and after. No-Cut Facelift, a minimally invasive facial rejuvenation, is a safer, scar-free alternative to traditional facelifts, emphasizing natural results.   Connect with Dr. Robert: Website of Dr. Robert Facebook - Dr. Robert Whitfield Instagram - @breastimplantillnessexpert YouTube - @breastimplantillnessexpert Podcast - Apple Podcasts - Explant Breast Surgery & Recovery   Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Is This Perimenopause or Something Else?

In today's episode, Sarah is sitting down and chatting with Ashley Johnson about all things healing physically and spiritually from major breast implant surgery, crystals, and gratitude on a micro level. Don't let your vanity keep you from healing.   Ashley Johnson went through one hell of a night of the soul that left her life changed forever. Diagnosed with breast cancer at 34 then mysterious illnesses and ailments that no doctor could figure out, led her to realize she was dealing with breast implant illness. Many doctors denied this was what was happening - but she finally found one that was in her corner and with her every step of the way as she began another healing journey. Getting the implants removed was just the beginning, as she'd continue to detox for a full year afterward. She also decided to get an aesthetic flat closure and is now advocating and normalizing this route — what a badass chick!

Today's episode is to inform and educate women on Breast Implant Illness. I think it is absolutely essential to inform yourself before making big decisions such as getting breast implants. Although I know I am not just speaking for myself when I say years back we didn't know what we now do. It is clear now that there is such a thing as BII (breast implant illness) and today I brought on the leading expert for BII to discuss what leads to this, what are the common symptoms, what we need to do before we explant, how to properly detox and reduce inflammation, and what to avoid if you have implants.  Dr. Robert Whitfield has been a plastic surgeon for over 25 years and board-certified for over 16 years. Dr. Whitfield specializes in Breast Implant Illness (BII), breast implant removal surgery (explants), and advanced cosmetic procedures such as his “No-Cut” Facelift. He has performed over 3,000 explant surgeries to date. In addition to his work as a surgeon, Dr. Whitfield developed the Strategic Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program (SHARP), a series of protocols to help reduce systemic inflammation and assist patients who  are preparing or recovering from surgical procedures, cosmetic or otherwise.

It's wild how something that's supposed to make you feel more confident can actually be the thing making you sick. Candice Barley learned this the hard way after struggling with years of unexplained symptoms—fatigue, gut issues, even liver problems—before realizing her breast implants were the culprit. Now, as a leading advocate for women with Breast Implant Illness (BII), she's on a mission to educate and support others through their own healing journeys. She's here to share what she wishes she knew sooner, from the hidden health risks to the life-changing decision to explant. Candice has helped countless women through the explant process, from finding the right surgeons to navigating the emotional ups and downs. She's the author of The Explant Book, a step-by-step guide to healing from BII, and the creator of the photo documentary Not As Advertised, which sheds light on the real impact of implants.

In this episode of the Biohacker Babes, we sit down with Dr. Robert Whitfield, a renowned plastic surgeon with over 25 years of experience, to dive deep into the topic of Breast Implant Illness. Dr. Whitfield breaks down what Breast Implant Illness (BII) is, its symptoms, and who may be at risk. We explore the common myths surrounding the condition, how to recognize the signs & symptoms, and why many patients experience frustration when seeking answers. We also discuss explant surgery--the process of removing implants--and its potential health benefits. Additionally, we unpack the role of mold toxicity, biofilms, and heavy metals, lesser known issues that can affect those with breast implants. Tune in for an informative conversation that sheds light on an important but often misunderstood issue affecting women today.A plastic surgeon for over 25 years, Dr. Robert Whitfield previously specialized in working with cancer, burn, and critically ill patients, and reconstruction for breast, head, and neck. In 2016, one patient gave him a deeper purpose when she came into his clinic for a consultation regarding her existing breast implants and was battling a number of symptoms including headaches, chronic fatigue, joint and muscle pain, and much more. This led Dr. Whitfield on his path to helping women who suffer from Breast Implant Illness (BII) and to date, he has performed thousands of explant surgeries. Unique to his practice, Dr. Whitfield believes it is important to combine functional medicine as a core part of his work. He developed the SHARP method (Strategic Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program), a series of protocols (testing, GI mapping, supplementation, nutritional counseling, etc.) to help reduce systemic inflammation and assist patients who are both preparing for or recovering from surgical procedures, cosmetic or otherwise.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the show!2:40 Dr Robert Whitfield's bio3:24 Welcome him to the podcast!5:32 What is Breast Implant Illness?6:40 How the United States treats BII differently9:28 Reconstructing with your own abdominal tissue10:20 Does everyone with implants need to be concerned about Breast Implant Illness?14:21 Reducing swelling in tissue during surgery17:39 Who is the most susceptible to BII?19:42 Mold toxicity as an upstream stressor21:38 The biggest strains of bacteria found on implants24:25 Catching up on new breast implant research26:40 *CAROL BIKE*28:05 *MAGNESIUM BREAKTHROUGH*29:15 Biofilms & the immune system31:52 Detoxing before vs after38:02 Heavy metals & breast implants39:29 Should you use Saunas with implants?43:15 Timeline for surgery & healing46:54 MRIs & Ultrasounds for ruptures47:47 Fat transfers & weight loss drugs53:16 Dr. Whitfield's Resources & Learning center57:12 His final piece of advice58:32 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Website: drrobertwhitfield.comMetaOxy TestCarol Bike - Discount code: biohackerbabes for $250 off BiOptimizer's Magnesium Breakthrough - Discount code: biohackerbabes10Our Sponsors:* Check out Effecty and use my code BIOHACKERBABES for a great deal: https://www.effecty.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

2025 is here, and we're sharing all the tips you need to become your most confident self, inside and out. we dive into what true confidence really means, covering physical, mental, and emotional confidence, and so much more. today's episode is all about transforming the way you think about confidence!

Women who believe their implants are making them sick report a wide range of symptoms including extreme fatigue, muscle and joint pain, headache, brain fog, hair loss, rashes, dry mouth and eyes, depression, anxiety, and insomnia. These conditions appear within a few months to several years following surgery and seem to follow a secondary surgery like revision or exchange. However, the exact cause is difficult to pin down because other conditions, like Lyme disease and toxic mold exposure, can cause similar symptoms. Using PCR testing (instead of traditional CLIA-based lab testing), Dr. Rob discovered that over 60% of the breast implants he removed all had one thing in common. Dr. Robert Whitfield describes his methodology for identifying this complicated, misunderstood condition and shares his treatment strategies utilizing nutrition and genetic testing to put his patients on the path to healing.
