 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.
