Are you ready to navigate the murky waters of encapsulated implants and breast implant illness? Renowned Dr. Kordestani is with us today to shed light on these complicated topics and empower our listeners with knowledge. We discuss everything from the different grades of encapsulation to the myriad of symptoms that can be associated with breast implants. Age, lifestyle and the possibility of a lift or fat grafting after implant removal are all factors to consider when faced with these issues.
We move onto the controversial topic of Breast Implant Illness, a term that brings with it a range of symptoms that are linked to implants. Dr. Kordestani articulates the challenges associated with diagnosing this condition and the difficulties faced by patients who are seeking help. We engage in an important discussion around the complexities of this illness and the necessity of being heard by your medical professional.
The gender bias in healthcare is a reality that can't be ignored. We unpack the ways in which women often feel unheard, particularly when it comes to issues like Breast Implant Illness. Dr. Kordestani shares insights into how female doctors and surgeons often struggle to establish themselves in a predominantly male field and how this impacts patient care. As we wrap up, we reiterate the importance of seeking advice from experienced and knowledgeable professionals when dealing with these challenging health concerns, and hope of finding a marker for definitively diagnosing breast implant illness in the future.
