While breast implants are designed to enhance physical appearance or reconstruct breast tissue, they can sometimes lead to unintended health complications. For some individuals, the presence of implants may trigger a range of symptoms known as breast implant illness (BII), including fatigue, joint pain, and cognitive issues. These complications can occur as the body responds to foreign materials, potentially exacerbating pre-existing health conditions or causing new ones.The impact of breast implants on overall health can be significant. That is why understanding the potential risks is important for those considering breast implants or experiencing symptoms that may be related to them. This episode with our patient, Allie Janszen, focuses on breast implant illness and her removal journey as she shares her personal experiences with the health challenges related to breast implants and how their implant removal led to significant improvements in her well-being. Breast Implant Illness and Weight Loss Struggles after ChildbirthWhen Allie first considered breast augmentation, she was very lean, having been a college athlete. Although she might have had some fat that could have been used for a fat transfer, it wasn’t something she had ever heard of or considered. Her mindset was focused solely on getting breast implants.Fast-forward to after the birth of her fourth child, a difficult emergency C-section triggered what she later realized were symptoms of breast implant illness. Despite her background as a labor and delivery nurse and a fat loss coach – where she was helping others with weight loss and healthy living – she struggled to lose weight and manage her own health. She realized that the same techniques that worked for her clients weren’t working for her anymore.In addition to the weight loss struggles, Allie experienced extreme fatigue, making it hard to wake up in the morning, hitting an afternoon energy wall, and even falling asleep while putting her kids to bed. These symptoms, combined with inflammation and hormonal changes, were all part of what she now recognizes as breast implant illness.Tinnitus, Meniere's Disease, and Inflammation after Breast Implant RemovalDr. Whitfield explains that Tinnitus, Meniere's disease, and sensitivity to light and sound are often related to neural inflammation. While many patients experience improvement or even elimination of these symptoms after implant removal, pre-existing conditions like chronic migraines or autoimmune disorders may not be fully resolved by this procedure. For patients with a higher BMI needing breast reconstruction, alternative methods like the DIEP flap surgery are available. After Allie had her breast implants removed, she noticed significant improvements in her health, particularly in areas she hadn't expected. Prior to the removal, she struggled with joint pain during workouts, experiencing discomfort in her knees and wrists that she had never dealt with before. Additionally, she was diagnosed with Meniere's disease after experiencing persistent symptoms in her left ear, such as a feeling of fullness, vibrating noises in loud environments, and episodes of vertigo. These symptoms were occurring weekly, yet after the implant removal, they completely subsided, which she found to be the biggest change.She had initially been focused on resolving her weight loss struggles and reducing inflammation, but the improvements in her Meniere's symptoms were an unexpected benefit. Despite her background as a health professional, she hadn’t anticipated that removing her implants would have such a profound effect on her ear issues. This experience led her to recognize the connection between her implants and the inflammation that was likely contributing to her Meniere's disease symptoms. The immediate relief she experienced was a clear indication that the implants had been exacerbating her condition.Post-surgery Fatigue and Inflammation Reduction, with a Focus on Diet and Lifestyle Changes for Improved Sleep and Overall HealthAllie’s commitment to a clean lifestyle played a crucial role in her recovery and health improvements. She and her husband had already been avoiding plastics, using natural household products, and maintaining a nutritious diet, which likely contributed to her ability to bounce back quickly after the surgery. Her weight loss and other health improvements can be attributed to the reduction of inflammation caused by the breast implants, which she believes had been disrupting her hormones and overall well-being. In addition to the weight loss, she noticed a drastic improvement in her energy levels and the elimination of afternoon fatigue. This boost in energy and the resolution of her fatigue suggests that her body has undergone a significant reset, particularly in her mitochondrial function, which has improved her overall metabolic efficiency.Dr. Whitfield praised Allie’s high protein intake for reducing fluid retention and aiding recovery, which improved her sleep and energy levels. He highlighted the importance of a consistent sleep schedule, reducing screen time before bed, and a cool, dark sleep environment for better rest. Dr. Whitfield also emphasized reducing inflammation and using wearable devices to monitor sleep and recovery as key factors in enhancing overall health and symptom relief.In addition to lifestyle adjustments, Dr. Whitfield recommends taking supplements like L-theanine, ashwagandha, sustained-release melatonin, and magnesium which are helpful in promoting relaxation and improving sleep quality. By prioritizing these aspects of lifestyle, you’ll surely be able to improve your circadian rhythm, allowing you to wake up refreshed and maintain high energy levels throughout the day, ultimately leading to better overall health.Sleep Scores, Breast Implant Illness, and Brain HealthImproving sleep has a significant link to brain health insofar as quality sleep is essential for cognitive function, mood regulation, and overall mental well-being. You may utilize tools such as wearable devices to monitor sleep quality and duration. Devices like Garmin watches or other sleep trackers can provide valuable insights into your sleep patterns, including the amount of deep sleep you’re getting. Additionally, incorporating dietary changes can be beneficial; focusing on a balanced, high-quality diet and avoiding heavy or processed foods close to bedtime can improve sleep. Dr. Whitfield cautioned against using medications like Tylenol before bed, which can impact blood sugar levels and worsen sleep issues. Moreover, he recommended addressing sleep apnea, as it can have serious implications for brain health and overall well-being and encouraged seeking solutions such as sleep studies for those with persistent sleep problems.Breast Implant Illness and Support for Those AffectedAs regards breast implant illness, research and understanding are crucial. It's important to thoroughly investigate the condition, including how implants can affect your body and the potential for autoimmune reactions triggered by major surgeries or other factors. Additionally, having a supportive partner and other family members can make a significant difference in managing the illness and making informed decisions about treatment. Positive outcomes following explantation, such as improved quality of life and overall health, reinforce the benefits of making informed decisions and having strong support throughout the process. This approach not only helps in achieving better physical results but also fosters emotional well-being. It’s crucial to approach explantation with a clear understanding of potential outcomes and to rely on supportive care to enhance the recovery journey.In addition to dietary adjustments, treatments such as the Balancer Pro have proven beneficial for reducing inflammation and supporting lymph drainage. This device effectively alleviates water retention and provides noticeable improvements in overall health and recovery.Moreover, Dr. Whitfield acknowledged that fat transfer is an option for women who wish to maintain breast volume or improve their appearance after explantation. He noted that it is a valuable choice for those concerned about losing breast volume post-removal. However, he also emphasized that it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution and that patient preferences and needs vary.

As women age and enter the perimenopause stage, they undergo many physiological changes, including significant hormonal fluctuations that can impact their overall health. That's why there's a need for us to understand the interplay between hormonal shifts and the symptoms associated with breast implants. By exploring more about this connection, we can develop more effective strategies for managing and alleviating the symptoms of breast implant illness.
Today, we are joined by Dr. Betty Murray, a renowned women's health advocate, and a certified Functional Medicine Practitioner. Through her PhD research, she identified key factors contributing to hormone and metabolic imbalances in women over 40. So make sure to tune in to this episode and gain valuable insights from her extensive expertise, which can offer practical solutions and guidance for navigating health challenges in this stage of life.
Perimenopause and Breast Implant Illness, Hormone Disruption, and Inflammatory Testing
Many women experience breast implant illness alongside perimenopause due to overlapping age ranges and hormonal changes during this period. Perimenopause often begins around age 42 and can last for an average of eight years, although symptoms can start earlier and last longer for some women. This involves significant hormonal fluctuations that can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and mood swings.
When women with breast implants reach the perimenopausal stage, they may attribute their symptoms solely to breast implant illness, even though perimenopause may also play a significant role. Inflammatory conditions like breast implant illness can exacerbate hormonal imbalances by suppressing normal hormone function.
Chronic inflammation, including autoimmune conditions and other medical device-related issues, can also significantly impact hormone levels and overall well-being. Unfortunately, conventional medicine often overlooks the connection between inflammation and hormonal imbalance, leaving many women without comprehensive care. Moreover, while traditional tests such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and sedimentation rates can indicate chronic inflammation, they are nonspecific and do not pinpoint the exact cause.
Addressing inflammation holistically, alongside hormone management, can help alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life for women dealing with both perimenopause and breast implant illness. Integrating lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management can further enhance overall well-being and support recovery.
Environmental Toxicity, Mold Exposure, and Its Effects on Human Health
Understanding an individual's genetic detoxification capabilities is crucial in assessing their toxicity burden, which includes exposure to environmental toxins like pesticides, heavy metals, and mold. Mold exposure, especially common in areas with heavy rain, can significantly impact hormonal and endocrine systems, causing severe health issues.
Dr. Murray notes that environmental toxins are at unprecedented levels and our bodies struggle to manage them, as they have to be processed by the liver similarly to internal toxins. It must be emphasized that toxins can affect health even in remote areas, as shown by research in Antarctica. Mold, in particular, disrupts the hypothalamic control of hormones and can lead to chronic illness, which can be challenging to diagnose.
Advanced testing for toxins and mold is crucial for accurately diagnosing and managing chronic health issues. These tests help pinpoint the exact nature of toxic exposure, enabling more targeted and effective treatment strategies. By understanding the specific toxins and mold present, healthcare providers can develop personalized detoxification and remediation plans, significantly improving patient outcomes and addressing the root causes of chronic symptoms that might otherwise go undetected.
Hormone Imbalance and Its Impact on Women's Health, Including Thyroid Issues, Adrenal Fatigue, and Menopause
Hormone imbalances, such as thyroid issues, adrenal fatigue, and menopause, are often more common than people realize. Many patients with symptoms like facial swelling and persistent fatigue mistakenly attribute their problems to thyroid dysfunction, when the root cause could be mold toxicity or other environmental factors. This misunderstanding can hinder effective treatment, as addressing these underlying toxins frequently resolves hormonal imbalances.
Moreover, high stress levels and inadequate recovery further complicate hormonal health, impacting thyroid function, cortisol levels, and overall endocrine balance. Comprehensive testing for toxins and mold, combined with managing stress and improving lifestyle habits, is crucial for effectively tackling these complex health issues.
How to Improve Sleep Quality by Reducing Exposure to Toxins and Optimizing Hormone Levels
Improving sleep quality requires a proactive approach to both reducing exposure to toxins and optimizing hormone levels. One key strategy is to create a sleep-friendly environment by keeping the bedroom dark, cool, and free from electronic distractions. Additionally, it's important to finish eating your last meal well before bedtime to allow for proper digestion, as eating late can disrupt sleep. Avoiding alcohol and late-night snacking further contributes to uninterrupted rest, enhancing sleep quality.
Addressing environmental toxins is also essential for better sleep and overall health. Many commonly used pesticides and herbicides act as endocrine disruptors, which can interfere with hormonal balance. To minimize exposure, choose organic fruits and vegetables, particularly those that are not peeled, and opt for organic animal proteins and dairy products. Reducing reliance on plastics by using glass containers for food and beverages can help avoid harmful chemicals often found in plastic products.
Incorporating small, consistent changes into your routine can have a significant impact on your health. Improving food quality, enhancing air quality, and adopting practices like intermittent fasting can all contribute to better sleep and hormone regulation. These adjustments, combined with appropriate supplementation if needed, can help reduce inflammation, support hormonal balance, and improve overall well-being, leading to more restorative and effective sleep.
Using Wearable Technology to Monitor and Improve Sleep
To enhance recovery, prioritizing sleep quality is crucial, as the body’s ability to detoxify and heal is intimately linked to restorative rest. The process of detoxification begins at the cellular level before being processed by the liver, making it essential to support every cell in the body. To effectively monitor and improve sleep quality, wearable technology such as Ultrahuman Ring or Whoop can be invaluable. These provide detailed insights into sleep patterns, including the duration and quality of deep sleep, which is vital for recovery. Accurate data helps individuals understand their sleep needs and identify areas for improvement, such as achieving an optimal balance of sleep stages.
Women, particularly those in perimenopause or menopause, often face challenges in maintaining adequate deep sleep, which can be shorter and less restorative compared to men. Hormonal disruptions during these stages can further complicate achieving sufficient deep sleep, which is crucial for growth hormone release and overall recovery. By utilizing wearable technology, individuals can track their sleep metrics more precisely and address issues affecting their rest. For instance, a cancer patient’s low heart rate variability and minimal deep sleep highlighted the need for targeted interventions to improve sleep quality and recovery outcomes.
To optimize recovery, it's essential to focus on both the quantity and quality of sleep. Effective sleep strategies include reducing exposure to disruptions, such as noise and light, and managing stress levels. Incorporating supportive measures like hyperbaric oxygen therapy, lymphatic massage, and proper nutrition can also complement efforts to enhance sleep. However, without sufficient deep sleep, these interventions alone may not be enough. And so, using wearable technology to monitor and adjust sleep patterns remains a key component in achieving optimal recovery and overall health.
Sleep Problems and Their Impact on Women's Health
Many women struggle to achieve deep sleep, which is crucial for memory consolidation and emotional processing. Deep sleep helps store short-term memories, akin to organizing information in filing cabinets, making it essential for cognitive health. When women experience disruptions in deep sleep, such as during perimenopause or menopause, it can lead to increased anxiety and depression, as REM sleep, which processes emotions, is also affected.
Sleep problems can also be linked to underlying conditions like obstructive sleep apnea or upper airway resistance. While snoring is a common sign, issues such as narrow airways can go undiagnosed, leading to poor sleep quality and an increased risk of cognitive decline. Individuals with persistent sleep issues should consider undergoing a sleep study to identify and address potential problems, as untreated sleep disorders can contribute to serious health issues, including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.
Overall, addressing sleep quality is crucial for overall health, particularly in managing cognitive and emotional well-being. For those with chronic sleep disturbances, exploring potential underlying conditions and seeking appropriate treatment can significantly improve both sleep quality and overall health outcomes.

Mold and Lyme disease are two complex issues that significantly impact the body's immune system and overall health. To manage these conditions effectively, a comprehensive approach is essential.
This means addressing not only the specific infections or toxins but also supporting overall detoxification processes, boosting immune function, and correcting any underlying health imbalances. However, treating these conditions can be challenging due to the overlapping symptoms and the potential for exacerbating inflammation if not managed carefully.
Today's episode features Dr. Diane Mueller, a dual doctorate holder in naturopathic medicine and acupuncture and oriental medicine, who trains physicians and clinicians worldwide, promoting a holistic approach to chronic disease treatment. Join us as Dr. Mueller shares her extensive expertise in integrating traditional and modern therapies to address complex health issues. This is surely an enlightening discussion on how to approach chronic health conditions with a balanced, comprehensive perspective.
Lyme disease, symptoms, and treatment options.
I remember encountering a patient struggling with Lyme Disease and mold which was ultimately linked to a ruptured breast implant. This case emphasizes the complexity of chronic inflammatory processes, including breast implant illness, where factors like functional genetics, toxin exposure, and hormone balance play crucial roles.
Dr. Mueller points out that symptoms of mold illness and Lyme disease often overlap, leading to diagnostic challenges. The dormant nature of Lyme bacteria allows it to resurface in mold-infested environments, particularly in individuals with genetic predispositions to mycotoxin accumulation.
Once individuals are in mold-infested homes, their immune systems become overburdened, attempting to combat the mycotoxins. This internal stress can reactivate dormant Lyme disease, similar to how chickenpox can lead to shingles, but much more severe. Patients experiencing Lyme flare-ups may present various severe symptoms, such as neurological issues. Identifying the root cause often involves differentiating between toxicity-related problems and Lyme disease, necessitating a comprehensive approach that includes detoxification and potential specialist referrals.
Symptoms of mold illness and Lyme disease can be so similar that they often go undiagnosed separately. When conventional health measures and toxin removals fail to alleviate symptoms, Lyme disease may be the underlying issue. Emotional and psychological stress, such as from trauma or physical changes, can exacerbate Lyme disease by strengthening bacterial biofilms and enhancing cell-to-cell communication, leading to symptom re-emergence. A holistic approach, addressing both biological and psychological factors, is therefore crucial for effective treatment.
Lyme Disease, Co-infections, and Lymphatic System
To support the parasympathetic state and reduce lymphatic congestion, a specific device called a Flip Presser from New Zealand is used. This device, which includes temperature and frequency settings, enhances drainage and promotes relaxation. Additionally, hyperbaric and red light therapies are employed.
Bartonella, a common co-infection with Lyme disease, is often transmitted by ticks and potentially by mosquitoes and fleas. Bartonella affects the lymphatic system, invading white blood cells and causing symptoms like lymphatic congestion and cystic lumps. Lymphatic drainage can sometimes reveal Bartonella infections if patients respond negatively to the treatment.
Dr. Mueller shares her experience with Bartonella, noting that treating the infection resolved the cystic lumps on her head. That's why it's important to take into consideration co-infections like Bartonella when dealing with complex cases involving breast implant illness, mold exposure, chemical exposures, gut dysbiosis, and hormone imbalances. This entails a need for thorough investigation when symptoms do not align with initial diagnoses.
How Widespread Impact on the Body's Network can lead to confusion in Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Illnesses
The widespread impact on the body’s network can make diagnosing and treating chronic illnesses particularly challenging. When nerve cells die or biotoxins from mold and Lyme disease impair the body’s ability to grow new capillaries, it affects every part of the body. This interconnectedness can make symptoms appear unrelated, such as problems in the big toe, gut, heart, and brain, creating confusion in diagnosis.
Patients often experience frustration when their symptoms are misunderstood or met with skepticism from healthcare providers. Even if symptoms don't fit traditional patterns, underlying issues such as exposure to mold or Lyme disease can still be present. For example, someone without breast implants might still face systemic problems from mold or Lyme exposure, which can activate their immune system and trigger a range of chaotic responses. Therefore, it's essential to recognize and address the broader network of symptoms and exposures for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
Mold Illness, Its Causes, and the Importance of Proper Inspection and Remediation
Approximately 24% of the population has a genetic predisposition to mold sensitivity, making them particularly vulnerable to the harmful effects of mold toxins. This genetic susceptibility means their immune systems struggle to recognize and eliminate these toxins, leading to an accumulation in their bodies. Without the immune system's ability to tag mold toxins properly, the body cannot signal the rest of the immune system to eradicate them, resulting in chronic exposure and related health issues.
Although these individuals may not always exhibit symptoms, certain triggers can activate the gene responsible for this vulnerability, leading to the manifestation of mold illness. Various factors can trigger the gene expression that leads to mold illness. These triggers can include significant life events such as trauma, stress, infections, or exposure to additional toxins. In other cases, the trigger may not be as apparent, but the cumulative effect of these factors can cause the gene to express, leading to illness.
This is often observed in patients with breast implant illness, where the implants can introduce additional toxins that exacerbate the immune system's response, turning a previously manageable condition into a severe health issue. The complexity of mold illness and related conditions like breast implant illness requires a comprehensive approach to diagnosis and treatment.
Considering that patients often present with a wide range of pervasive symptoms, including cognitive decline, chronic fatigue, and numerous physical ailments, there’s a need for an appropriate and effective treatment involving a combination of genetic and environmental assessments, testing for co-infections such as Bartonella, and employing holistic therapies like lymphatic drainage, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and red light therapy.
Additionally, emotional and psychological support is essential for managing these conditions. Patients often benefit from having a partner, spouse, or loved one who can help track their progress and provide a different perspective on their improvements. Specialized mold inspection and remediation are also critical, as many inspectors lack the expertise to identify and address mold issues effectively.
Patients may need to invest significantly in thorough inspection and remediation to ensure their living environment is safe. This comprehensive approach is vital for addressing the underlying causes of mold illness and related conditions, providing patients with the best chance for recovery and improved quality of life.
Home Inspections, Mold, and Air Quality
The role of the home environment in health cannot be overstated, especially when it comes to mold. Mold can be found in any environment, from the tropics to dry regions like Arizona. One of the biggest factors in preventing mold buildup is maintaining proper airflow. Open-air environments with constant airflow, despite being less comfortable, can be better biologically for the body compared to sealed environments with locked-in humidity.
Modern building practices aimed at environmental efficiency can sometimes inadvertently promote mold growth due to poor airflow and moisture retention. Simple home maintenance practices, like ensuring proper drainage away from the foundation and adequate ventilation systems, are critical in preventing mold issues. Also, regularly opening windows and using fans can help circulate air and keep the home dry.
It's essential to address even minor structural issues in the home promptly because small leaks or damage to the roof, which are often overlooked, can lead to significant mold problems over time. That’s why homeowners need to prioritize fixing these issues to prevent small problems from becoming major health hazards.
For renters, collaborating with property owners to ensure the structural integrity of the home is maintained is equally important. Additionally, avoiding the use of humidifiers and ensuring regular ventilation, even during extreme weather conditions, can help maintain a mold-free environment. By taking these proactive steps, individuals can create a healthier living space, reducing the risk of mold-related illnesses.
Mold Toxicity and Its Impact on Health
Pollen and mold are significant problems in Austin due to the mild climate that rarely gets cold enough to freeze. This leads to continuous exposure to allergens, often diagnosed as "Cedar fever." However, it's essential to consider mold as a contributing factor.
Improving air quality through proper home inspections, installing air filtration systems like Jaspr and IQAir, and increasing air circulation can be beneficial in managing the symptoms. Maintaining a clean diet also plays a crucial role in reducing allergy symptoms. For instance, avoiding specific foods like eggs can alleviate hay fever-like symptoms.
The liver has a limited capacity for detoxification, meaning it can only process toxins at a certain rate. Therefore, controlling the quality of the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat allows the liver to better handle toxins we cannot control. Understanding the difference between mold allergies and mold illness is crucial. Mold allergies trigger histamine release, causing symptoms like runny noses and itchy eyes, similar to other allergies. However, mold illness involves toxin buildup in the body, leading to neuroinflammation and other severe health issues.
Patients often request mold tests from their general practitioners after discussions about mold-related issues but are frequently tested only for mold allergies. Mold allergies are different from the toxic buildup caused by mold, which standard allergy tests do not detect. To identify mold toxins, specialized testing like that done by Vibrant Wellness is needed. Note that misunderstanding this difference can result in incorrect diagnoses and untreated symptoms. Consulting specialists with expertise in mold-related health problems is thus crucial for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
Treating Lyme Disease and Mold Toxicity in a Safe and Effective Manner
Many patients come to us frustrated after trying numerous treatments with various providers, often without success. In fact, Dr. Mueller and I frequently see cases involving mold and Lyme disease or breast implant illness. This extensive experience equips us with specialized expertise. When addressing complex issues like these, it's crucial to have deep knowledge and curiosity, as we do. Dr. Diane, for instance, is an expert in mold and Lyme disease, while I specialize in breast implant illness.
Patients often feel relieved upon receiving a diagnosis, eager to treat everything at once, but this approach can backfire, causing increased inflammation and slowed treatment progress. It's essential to prioritize foundational health aspects first. Ensuring balanced thyroid function, adequate adrenal hormones and a robust micronutrient profile provides the necessary support for the body before tackling root causes like mold and Lyme.
Typically, it's more effective to address mold before Lyme. Mold exposure can produce a significant amount of biotoxins that the liver must process. If the liver is already burdened by other toxins, adding more from Lyme treatment can overwhelm it, leading to worsened symptoms due to toxin buildup. By reducing the body's toxic load and improving liver function first, we can better manage the subsequent treatment of Lyme and other infections, minimizing adverse reactions and promoting a more effective healing process.
Sauna Use and Detoxification for Breast Implant Illness
A patient who frequently used a dry sauna at extremely high temperatures, up to 200 degrees, experienced severe Herxheimer reactions due to heavy metal exposure from degrading breast implants. This intense heat led to the leaching of harmful chemicals from the implants, worsening symptoms such as neurological and thyroid issues. Herxheimer reactions occur when detoxification processes overwhelm the body, causing symptoms to worsen as toxins are mobilized.
It's crucial to approach detoxification with caution to prevent these adverse effects. Excessive methods, such as high-temperature saunas, can exacerbate inflammation and delay recovery. Gradual and carefully monitored detoxification is preferred to manage symptoms effectively and avoid severe reactions.
A measured approach to detox, avoiding extreme measures, allows for better symptom management and progress. Starting with low-intensity methods and slowly increasing them helps prevent severe Herxheimer reactions and supports more effective recovery. This careful strategy ensures that the body can handle detoxification without becoming overwhelmed.

Sometimes, individuals undergo breast augmentation or other cosmetic procedures without fully understanding the potential long-term implications. Often, the focus is primarily on the immediate aesthetic outcomes or the desire to meet certain beauty standards. This lack of awareness can lead to unforeseen health issues and emotional distress, as individuals may not be prepared for or informed about the possible adverse effects that can arise post-procedure.Today's episode features one of our clients, Kasey Dixon, who has been open about her breast augmentation journey on Instagram. Kasey has shared her experiences candidly, including the challenges and insights she has gained throughout her process. Reasons for Breast Augmentation Surgery and Post-surgery ComplicationsBarbie and other pop culture icons such as Pamela Anderson from Baywatch, have had a profound impact on personal decisions. In fact, these make a lasting impression during many individuals’ formative years, shaping their perceptions of beauty and influencing their choice to pursue breast augmentation. However, Kasey was initially surprised by the influence of cultural norms on her decision to get breast augmentation considering that many women in her social circle had already undergone breast augmentation, which made it seem more like a standard and normalized practice. For her, the motivation was simply to add some volume rather than seeking dramatic changes in breast size. At the time, she did not consider potential health impacts or the need for future replacements, as these were not part of the discussion.There was no pushback or significant questioning from Kacey's surroundings, as breast augmentation was seen as a routine choice. She mentioned that during her initial consultations, other options such as fat transfer were not discussed, possibly due to the standard practices of that era and the availability of such procedures 20 years ago.Young adults are often resolute in their decisions regarding breast augmentation, which makes it particularly challenging to change their minds once they have made a choice. This is often rooted in a combination of personal conviction, cultural influences, and a strong desire to achieve a specific body image. For many, the decision to undergo cosmetic surgery is influenced by deeply ingrained perceptions of beauty and self-esteem that have been shaped over time by societal standards, media portrayals, and personal experiences.Kasey’s journey also included a transition from saline implants, which she initially received in 2005, to silicone implants in 2010. She experienced complications with her saline implant shifting out of position and sought correction from a different surgeon. In reconstructive surgery, especially for cancer patients, complications frequently arise due to factors like chemotherapy, radiation, and infections, which can affect healing and cause issues such as implant malposition. Even with surgical interventions to correct these problems, implants often shift because of the patient's daily activities and movement. In Kasey’s case, her silicone implants, which were meant to resolve earlier issues, ended up facing the same problems, as they were unable to stay properly positioned due to her active lifestyle.Postpartum Symptoms and their Physical Manifestations, Including Brain Fog, Nerve Pain, and Scalp PainWhen the immune system detects implants as foreign materials, it can initiate an inflammatory response as it attempts to protect the body from these perceived threats. This inflammation can manifest in various ways, including symptoms such as brain fog, nerve pain, and scalp pain.Kasey experienced brain fog, characterized by memory issues and confusion, along with nerve pain in her neck and back, which caused headaches and scalp discomfort. However, she attributed these symptoms to postpartum fatigue and stress. She had planned to have her implants removed but chose to wait until her children were older. Over time, her symptoms persisted and did not improve despite various remedies, leading her to suspect a connection to her breast implants rather than just postpartum changes. Despite trying cold therapy and other lifestyle changes, her condition only improved after her implants were removed.Risks of Sauna Use with Breast ImplantsDuring Kasey's consultation, I advised her to avoid using saunas, particularly those with high temperatures. This recommendation was based on observations from other patients, where exposure to extreme heat from saunas appeared to increase heavy metal toxicity from degraded implants, leading to worsened symptoms. Despite the lack of concrete evidence on how high temperatures impact implants, the cautious approach was to prevent potential health risks associated with sauna use.Kasey found the advice to avoid saunas sensible, particularly considering her own genetic predispositions that affect detoxification. Her experience, combined with observations from other patients who had similar issues with high-temperature environments, reinforced the importance of steering clear of saunas until more is understood about their impact on health.Detoxification and Its Impact on Health, Including a Patient's Experience with the CellCore Detox ProgramFunctional genomics is a big change, significantly enhancing our understanding since the completion of the Human Genome Project. These advancements have enhanced our understanding of genetic pathways related to detoxification, such as vitamin D metabolism, methylation, and antioxidant functions, as well as hormone metabolism, mood, and sleep.Kasey's situation illustrates how her genetic limitations in detoxification have impacted her recovery process. Despite her efforts and the use of detox programs like CellCore, she initially had a tough time. Recent tests showed increased levels of toxins, which might suggest that her liver is becoming more effective at removing these substances from her body.Guided by a detox expert, she has been following a tailored detox plan and specific supplementation regimen. She has been feeling generally well, with good energy levels despite some fatigue during the detox process. The ongoing detox efforts and tailored supplementation are helping improve her overall condition and liver function.As Kasey nears the end of her detox program, ongoing work will be necessary to address her condition. There is no single test that can definitively diagnose breast implant illness, but advancements are being made in this area. Researchers are exploring new methods to better understand inflammation levels and related symptoms.Current testing methods like sed rate and CRP tests are insufficient for accurately diagnosing breast implant-related issues. With ongoing studies and research into bacterial contaminants like staphylococcus epidermidis and biofilms, more accurate diagnostic tools are being developed to improve patient care and treatment outcomes.Breast Reconstruction, Mental Preparation, and SupportFor future patients considering breast reconstruction, it’s crucial to understand that recovery takes time, both physically and mentally. While many people focus on the cosmetic outcome, it’s essential to allow the body to heal fully, including detoxifying and adjusting to new physical changes. The process of reversing cosmetic procedures can be challenging, and achieving a baseline look and feel may be difficult. In Kasey's case, I recommended a fat transfer to improve her appearance due to her low BMI, even though she was initially hesitant. This approach aimed to help her achieve a more natural look and feel.For many patients, including Kasey, the decision to undergo breast augmentation or reconstruction involves more than just physical changes; it also affects their mindset. As people age, gain weight, or experience hormonal changes, their physical appearance can shift, making it important to address these changes with procedures like fat transfers to restore volume. However, a significant aspect that is often overlooked is the mental adjustment required. Patients may face challenges such as trauma, guilt, or shame when dealing with the reversal of cosmetic procedures, and these emotional factors can impact their overall well-being. To support patients better, there is a need for programs that offer more comprehensive mindset support, acknowledging the psychological effects that accompany physical changes.Remember that mental mindset plays a crucial role in the perception and experience of symptoms related to breast implant illness. A negative mindset can exacerbate symptoms like fatigue, pain, and nerve issues, similar to how certain therapies can trigger responses in the body. Support systems are indeed crucial for recovery, and Kasey’s supportive partner plays a key role in her healing process.

When inflammation becomes chronic, it can lead to various health problems. That's why when it comes to undergoing any medical procedures, it's best to prioritize recovery and lower inflammation. Managing inflammation effectively not only supports faster recovery but also reduces the risk of complications and promotes overall well-being.
By taking proactive steps to reduce inflammation, you can support your body's natural healing processes, improve immune function, and promote long-term wellness. Join me in another episode where we delve deeper into practical strategies and lifestyle changes that can effectively lower inflammation and enhance your health journey.
Preparation for breast implant surgery, including air quality, water quality, and food quality.
I often get asked how to start preparing to lower inflammation. Of course, having a genuine support system greatly helps. Surrounding yourself with supportive family members, friends, or loved ones can provide emotional encouragement and practical assistance, making the process more manageable. This support can be especially crucial when implementing lifestyle changes, ensuring you stay motivated and on track toward achieving your health goals.
Focusing on air quality is vital. Personally, this is important to me considering the fact that I had allergies growing up. I highly recommend Jaspr Air Purifiers because they automatically adjust to air quality, which is unique in the market.
Another important factor is water quality because filtered water is key to reducing inflammation as it promotes better gut health. That’s why we use Echo filters in our office and surgery center because they do the trick and even reduce oxidative stress. Also, I want to emphasize that I don't recommend adding a lot of minerals or vitamins to your water, as too much can cause issues if you're also taking supplements. Just stick to purified water, and if you use our protein powder, you can mix it in for added benefits.
When it comes to food quality, prioritizing organic vegetables is crucial. Organic vegetables are grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers, meaning they are less likely to contain harmful chemicals like glyphosate. Glyphosate exposure can disrupt hormonal balance, particularly in women, and has been linked to various health issues. By choosing organic, you significantly reduce your risk of ingesting these potentially harmful substances.
Furthermore, organic farming practices enhance soil health and biodiversity, leading to more nutrient-dense produce. Organic vegetables often contain higher levels of essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which are vital for combating inflammation and supporting overall health. Consuming nutrient-rich foods helps your body maintain optimal functioning and resilience against diseases.
I highly suggest checking the Environmental Working Group's Dirty Dozen list for guidance on which produce to buy organic and always wash your fruits and vegetables thoroughly. I also recommend cutting out gluten, minimizing dairy, and avoiding seed oils, as these can be pro-inflammatory.
Focusing on organic vegetables is a simple yet impactful step towards reducing inflammation and supporting overall health.
Before starting any procedure with us, it's essential to prioritize improving your recovery first. Surgery can trigger inflammation, so managing stress and hormone levels is crucial. Follow the 321321 rule before bed: finish your last meal three hours before bedtime, stop drinking fluids two hours before, and urinate before bed to avoid disturbances. Quality sleep is also vital as it helps in hormone secretion and recovery. In line with this, if you snore, it's best to get tested for sleep apnea, as it can lead to significant health issues.
By improving your air, water, and food quality, and following these preparation tips, you'll be well on your way to reducing inflammation and improving your overall health.

There are many reasons why women undergo breast explant surgery. Although some women do breast explant because they don’t want them anymore, some opt for breast explant surgery due to health issues or complications such as capsular contracture (scar tissue tightening around the implant), rupture, infection, or chronic pain.
Knowing the expected recovery time gives people reasonable expectations regarding their healing process. It prepares them for the temporary limits and pain they may encounter during this period, which can help lessen worries. In today’s episode, we’ll be talking about how long breast explant surgery and recovery take.
Optimizing your immune system
When you undergo an operation, whether breast explant surgery, breast implant, breast reconstruction, or others, you have to ensure that your immune system is in its optimum state.
To optimize your immune pathways, we do genetic testing and saliva tests which normally take a couple of months to get the results. We also conduct urine tests to identify toxicities and inflammation.
Another thing that should be taken into consideration is the environment, as it also affects one’s immune system and recovery after a breast explant surgery. If you’re in an environment with molds, you have to be careful as these affect the air quality, which can also negatively impact your health.
Optimizing your diet and taking supplements
Having a healthy lifestyle boosts the immune system. Diet obviously plays a key role in all of these because if you can't eat and absorb nutrients, you can't recover easily.
You have to stay on track with your diet as it limits fluid accumulation by changing your oncotic pressure, which is the protein content in your blood so that you go from a leaky phase or catabolic phase after surgery to an anabolic phase or a non-leaky phase. This helps your swelling to lessen quicker.
Optimizing your diet includes an examination of food sensitivities and assessing your body’s food and nutrient absorption. We also have to check if you have bacterial, fungal, or parasitic overgrowth or leaky gut. It’s also important to ensure proper blood work and hormone balance for recovery since women have high levels of cortisol and sometimes estrogen as well, which can prolong recovery.
We carefully look into all of these factors, particularly the levels of estrogen, progesterone, and even testosterone, and optimize them through our supplements to shorten the patient’s recovery time. We also use red light therapy and lymphatic massage. Many of my clients also like to use hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Generally, it takes one to two weeks of recovery if you’ve had an explant and it’s above the muscle and a couple of weeks - depending on how hard it is to get it out from behind the muscle. However, the recovery period still depends on many factors like your genetics, diet, lifestyle, environment, and hormone balance.
If we carefully optimize these, we’ll be able to give you the possible results and decrease the time for recovery. We're also introducing new things to enhance recovery like peptide therapy because we want you to recover as efficiently as possible.
