ENCORE: What the Lab Actually Found On My BII Patient’s Breast Implants

Explant Breast Surgery & Recovery

08/17/23 • 15 min

Dr. Rob tells the story of a patient whose labs were normal but her health wasn’t, and how this case led him to analyze implants in a new way (and the shocking findings).

So many women with breast implants experience the same symptoms of extreme fatigue, general malaise, and chronic aches and pains, yet their tests routinely come back with nothing.

In this second episode of our series about Breast Implant Illness, Dr. Rob describes how PCR testing (the same that detects COVID-19) delivers the long-needed answers that finally put BII sufferers on the road to recovery.

Episode 25: Are There Any Risks or Complications Associated with Breast Explant Surgery?

Explant Breast Surgery & Recovery

07/06/23 • 9 min

In our previous episodes, we mentioned a variety of reasons why patients decide to undergo breast implant removal. Regardless of the reason, it's crucial to have a comprehensive understanding of the potential risks or complications associated with this breast explant surgery.

That’s why today’s episode is another important one. Knowledge of the potential risks allows individuals to make informed decisions about whether to proceed with the procedure and enables them to prepare and prioritize their health and safety.

Risks or complications associated with breast explant surgery

One of the complications after a breast surgery, although quite rare, is pneumothorax, which is an incidence of injury in the chest cavity. I’ve personally performed almost 1,200 explants. Such an incident of injury has happened to me 5 out of 1,200 explant cases, which is a very low incidence.

As with any surgical procedure, there is a risk of bleeding and infection. One of the more concerning complications involving bleeding is hematoma. And fortunately, I haven’t encountered one of those in several years. I also haven’t had an infection case due to drains in over a couple of years.

Optimizing patients with low BMI

As with any surgical procedure, scarring is a common risk. The visibility of the scars depends on various factors such as the surgical technique used, the patient's healing process, and more. However, it's important to note that while scarring can happen, there are measures and techniques available to help reduce the visibility of scars and promote optimal healing.

Personally, I think fat transfer helps with some of these aesthetic issues, which is why I usually do it and recommend it to my patients. Additionally, I work very hard with diet supplements and other testing to optimize patients and lower their inflammation.

As much as we can, we really ensure that we get to optimize the patient’s hormone levels and enhance recovery any way we can. With regard to BMI, I think patients with low BMI and big implants are the most difficult patients. They are more prone to breasts sagging or drooping in the long run but they can have a delayed fat transfer.

To minimize any risks or complications, we do all of the testing through our Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program (HARP), alongside optimization with supplements, proper diet, treatments, and lymphatic massages because we always want to provide our patients with the best care possible.

Episode 3: Are Your Breast Implants Making You Sick?

Explant Breast Surgery & Recovery

03/17/23 • 18 min

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 more often follow a secondary surgery like revision or exchange. But 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 Whit 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.

Episode 68: Navigating Breast Implant Surgery Risks with Dr. Thomas Chung

Explant Breast Surgery & Recovery

05/30/24 • 32 min

Breast implants are said to be a transformative solution for individuals seeking aesthetic enhancement or breast reconstruction. However, beneath their promise of confidence and beauty lie potential risks that are often overlooked. Breast Implant Illness (BII) underscores the importance of thorough patient education and informed consent, highlighting the complexities and implications associated with implants. That is why there is a need for us to raise more awareness about the realities of breast implant surgery, ensuring that patients are fully informed about the risks and potential consequences.

I'm thrilled to introduce our guest for today's episode – Dr. Thomas Chung. We share a similar background in terms of experience and training, which initially intrigued me since he has a clear and insightful understanding of breast implant illness, and we'll delve into that throughout this episode.

Plastic surgery career, including microsurgery and breast reconstruction

What struck me about Dr. Chung is his extensive experience in microsurgery, a field in which we've both worked. Dr. Chung's journey began with his training in the Navy, where he completed his internship and general surgery residency at Walter Reed, then part of the National Naval Medical Center consortium in DC. During his residency, he managed numerous casualties from conflicts like Fallujah, serving as chief of the trauma service with a daily census of 30 to 40 injured veterans. After finishing his general surgery training, he pursued a fellowship at Johns Hopkins, launching his plastic surgery career before returning to Walter Reed to handle more trauma cases.

His work involved extensive microsurgery, such as reconstructing an entire abdominal wall for a survivor of a suicide bombing and performing numerous extremity-free flaps and breast reconstructions using deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flaps. Over the first seven to eight years, Dr. Chung climbed the Navy's ranks, taking on leadership roles like Chief of Surgery, Chair of the Medical Executive Committee, and ultimately Chief Medical Officer for the San Diego region.

Dr. Chung remains passionate about plastic and aesthetic surgery despite his executive responsibilities. Notably, he performs many explant surgeries for patients experiencing issues after long-term breast implant use.

Immunosuppression in organ transplants and chronic inflammation

In my previous episodes, I've extensively discussed breast implant illness and Dr. Chung agrees that implants may cause more than just localized pain or discomfort. He believes there's something inherently toxic about implants that science can explain and this understanding aligns with groundbreaking surgical advancements by the Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Joseph Murray. Dr. Murray's work on organ transplants demonstrates the need for immunosuppression to prevent rejection.
In transplants, immunosuppression is crucial to avoid rejection, but this concept can also apply to implants. Patients often react negatively to treatments like steroids or methotrexate, fearing the medications rather than understanding their role in managing symptoms.

We see chronic inflammation in patients with implants, similar to organ rejection. In both scenarios, if the initial post-surgery period goes well, complications are less likely. However, issues during this time can lead to significant problems. For cancer patients undergoing reconstruction, immunosuppression can exacerbate complications, demonstrating the delicate balance required to manage immune responses.

Transplant rejection and the use of splint analogy to explain the concept

Using analogies from organ transplants helps patients understand that their bodies might be "rejecting" implants, causing chronic inflammation. This perspective can help them grasp the need for proper management and treatment strategies, even if those include higher doses of immunosuppressants like prednisone to manage their symptoms effectively.

When it comes to resolving issues with breast implants, focusing on the concept of explants and the importance of addressing capsules surrounding the implants is vital. We use the splinter analogy to explain the body's reaction to foreign objects. Just as a splinter in your finger causes pain and inflammation until it's removed, so does the body react to implants, leading to discomfort and potential toxicity. Removing the splinter provides immediate relief, compared to the relief patients might experience after explant surgery.

Dr. Chung appreciates the simplicity of this analogy, which helps patients understand the body's rejection response. He relates it to his experience on transplant rotations, where managing immune responses to transplanted organs was crucial. He emphasizes the importance of detailed procedures in removing implants, akin to meticulous methods used in cancer surgeries ...

Dr. Brandy Cummings, DCN, is not your typical nutritionist—she’s a former blackjack dealer who routinely chooses steak over quinoa, roasted veggies over kale chips, and, most importantly, she understands. Her passion for root cause-focused nutrition stems from her own struggles with illness, infertility, and feeling forgotten by conventional medicine.
After overcoming severe mold exposure that triggered the loss of her first pregnancy as well as countless other debilitating symptoms, Dr. B explored every corner of improving cellular health; she researched overlooked causes of chronic illness, such as mold, parasites, reactivated viral infections, and a dysregulated nervous system and was alarmed at the lack of continuous care offered by the conventional model.
Dr. Cummings holds an impressive list of qualifications, with her Doctorate of Clinical Nutrition from the University of Western States in Portland, OR. She lives in Idaho with her husband and two young daughters and is a proud homeschooler, foodie, and Lego enthusiast. You can find her at www.resilientmotherhood.health.
