“If you knew your breast implants would suppress your libido or lead to thyroid changes, how many would do that?” – Dr. Rob Whitfield
Breast implant illness is a real and potentially debilitating issue that affects many women. With breast implants being one of the most common cosmetic surgeries in the US, it’s crucial for women (and their loved ones) to understand the risks and how to recover.
In this episode, Tim talks with Dr. Rob Whitfield, a world-renowned plastic surgeon who has removed over 3,000 breast implants. They discuss the connection between implants and inflammation, including the alarming 800% rise in autoimmune diseases among women with implants. Dr. Whitfield also addresses common concerns, such as whether it’s safe to use a sauna with implants, all while offering hope and guidance on recovery from breast implant illness.
