    I developed BII. I thought it was rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. I went to Mayo Clinic, got a full rheumatology and neurology workup and then went to the gastroenterologist and had an EGD/colonoscopy. All of these things were negative! So, I got my implants out 3-12-24. Within 7 days, my face no longer looked swollen, my blood pressure normalized, and my energy went through the roof. I still have joint pain, but I am using an oral binder and castor oil and detoxing from the silicone. Thankfully, I am on the way to recovery and will never again fall for implants or any other surgery to "enhance" my look. I do not have any sadness about my implants being gone, only relief.

      I have read the research. The research suggest it is caused by bacteria forming colony within the capsule of the breast implant. Gradually leaking out the bacteria causing chronic inflammation overtime. The bacteria forms a biofilm and this is their stronghold against your immune system. This is why capsular contractual happens. Your body can't win and decides to seal off your entire implant altogether. Once the scar tissue is thick enough, if it ever EXPLODES. You gone. You will end up like Wendy William, the bacteria released will destroy you.

      You are saying everything that I have gone through. And in the last 2 years have gotten worse. I’m getting mine done. And I found out by my surgeon and a few others that I would totally trust. To remove the entire implant and capsule and they all said no drain. I don’t care about the bigger scar. Every thing toxic implant capsule and tissue has to all come out at the same time. I know girls from my FB that did not get the capsule all out at same time with implants they never recovered fully. IV and detox is all things that my doctors will do for me where I’m going they do all the after surgery recovery and testing. I had enough with these doctors that don’t know what they are talking sbout. And above all still do implants. Do one or the other they should be band that’s how I feel. I would not go to this doctor

    They tell you to replace implants after ten years. They DONT tell you how much more expensive that will be, or the amount of scarring that will result. I walked around with 27 yr old, double lumen (DOW) implants. My health deteriorated. Upon explant, found put the right implant was ruptured. How long? No idea. My breast implants looked perfect. I now suffer from. Hashimoto, Lupus, and chronic pain. It's NOT WORTH IT!

      Insurance did pay some of mine, and the Dr also paid me back some from accepting payment from my insurance company. This was all after explanting. The capsular contracture and ruptured implants were both on the list that insurance did pay for. I had one capsular contracture The Dr said "both implants were ruptured and the silicone had invaded my chestwall and cavity, and it was a mess" Unfortunately, I am still sick and continue to detox. However I am better! Also, If I hadn't investigated, I don't think I would have received a penny from either one! But, I do believe if I hadn't explanted I wouldn't have survived all the illnesses these toxic bags have created! I am better, but still not good. I don't feel like I'm dying everyday anymore and the rheumatoid arthritis is pretty much all gone! These are huge improvements! Ladies, the capsules have to come out! Leaving them in is irresponsible! Drs need to learn updated information! Lives can be sparred and children deserve to have healthy mothers! Go to "breast implant illness and healing by nicole" on fb. All kinds of studies and at least 250,000 members who have been searching for answers for all their illnesses as well! Bii is absolutely real!!!

    Dr Youn, please do a video about breast implant maintenance! I don’t think enough people understand that breast implants are not a “one and done” thing! I also suspect some doctors are not educating their patients about implant upkeep and replacement, or about the risks of failing to do so. And I’d love to know what the most recent research says about replacing your implants.

I do occasionally feel like my chest muscles are a bit tender if I do any heavy lifting. My surgery took place May 2019.

It's just the toxic bucket analogy.... for some the implants are the thing that makes the bucket overflow and create symptoms, or not even that... the age that women tend to show up with autoimmune issues is 30's... and that's seemingly the most common age these symptoms of BII occur.

      When I want to fill out a top, I simply slip in a pair of breast forms that I found for relatively cheap on amazon, they look like real boobs LOL😅 and make me look like I have huge implants - but they just slip into a bra.

    I had multiple symptoms of BII along with weird lymph node issues and breast pain so I opted to have them removed. They were the Mentor gel implants and they were taken en bloc which I didn’t mind since a mastopexy was necessary along with it. I have minimal scarring thankfully and it’s taken nearly two years for the majority of my symptoms to resolve. I look great and have an even better appreciation for my natural shape now, whereas I didn’t when I first got implants. Additionally, my skin and hair have thanked me a million times over by a clear complexion and thicker hair.

    I decided to go on UA-cam tonight to see if women have had symptoms of being so tired, forgetting important things, and all the symptoms that have been mentioned in this article . I’ve had so many blood tests done to see what the hell is wrong with me.

    What about inflammatory markers like HS-CRP, IL-6, etc etc etc? Could it be that the implants are causing low grade inflammation? The symptoms you mentioned seem like they could be inflammation related. Then it could also be the case that anyone who has any kind of implant could suffer from this kind of thing. I think with the breast implants, the risks could be higher as well because they move around a lot. I guess they have already checked for the biomarkers of autoimmune disease type reaction?...

  • @jazzbea6243

    I seriously considered breast implants. I am so happy I never got them. Every plastic surgery has to be redone over time. For myself, I feel unless something is organically wrong with a persons body, do nothing until you get older. At 20 and 30 years old people should stay away from procedures, including botox. The only thing that might be okay is fillers, within reason. Another exception is women after childbirth. Some women are left with sagging skin, and breasts, stretch marks, etc. A woman needs to feel good about herself after the children come.
    Having invasive procedures, total facelift at 40 means more than likely the procedure will have to be repeated in 10 years, then another 10 years. Why not wait until 55 years or older, have the big surgery and be done with it. There is no way to stop the aging process. Instead, focus more on healthy lifestyle, stay out of the sun, use good skincare and all mineral SPF when you will be outside. Eat a diet made up of more vegetables and lean meats. Exercise using a variety of modalities, aerobic, weights, balance and stabilization and brain stimulation games.
    We all must accept getting older. There is no way to halt the process. Too many procedures on the face and body results in an older person looking ridiculous. We can never recapture our youth. We CAN go a reputable plastic surgeon like Dr. Youn for a one and done major procedure and maintain what you have, "naturally" for the rest of your life via healthy lifestyle.
