Welcome back to the second episode of the Beauty Justice podcast! I'm your host, Whitney Ray Di Bona. Today, we're diving into the critical yet often overlooked issue of the dangers associated with breast implants. Joined by Robyn Towt and Amanda Porta, we discuss everything from breast implant illness to the risks linked with various implant types.
Amanda reveals her journey of discovery through support groups after a friend suggested her health issues might relate to her implants. Meanwhile, Robyn highlights concerning findings about the chemicals and heavy metals in these implants and discusses a study showing that a staggering 86% of women did not receive proper informed consent regarding the risks.
Both guests share their personal stories to emphasize the need for education, transparency, and informed decision-making in cosmetic procedures. As advocates and survivors, Robyn and Amanda stress the importance of awareness and recognizing symptoms early. Whether you're considering implants or thinking about removing them, this episode is packed with stories, facts, and resources to help you make an informed decision.
