Ep.122 Breast Implant Illness, The No-Cut Face Lift and Holistic Wellness with Dr. Robert Whitfield

Asking for a Friend - Health, Fitness & Personal Growth Tips for Women in Midlife

I'm excited to welcome Robert Whitfield, MD, a world-renowned holistic plastic surgeon with a specialization in breast implant illness (BII). Since recording this episode, I have heard two other health and fitness influencers talk about their experiences with Dr. Whitfield and explant surgery. Both raved about his knowledge and thoroughness in the process and were very happy with their results and the care they received.
Dr. Whitfield’s background, from his upbringing in Las Vegas to his extensive medical training in Indiana, sets the stage for our deep dive into the complexities of BII. He shares eye-opening insights into the prevalence of breast augmentation, the symptoms of BII, and his groundbreaking work in advanced breast explant procedures and innovative treatments. Together, we explore his commitment to patient safety and holistic health.
He is a sought-after provider for his Strategic Holistic Accelerated Recovery Program (SHARP). The protocols of SHARP help to reduce systemic inflammation and assist patients who are both preparing or recovering from surgical procedures.
Throughout this episode, you’ll also learn essential health tips for preventing osteoporosis and managing BII. Dr. Whitfield highlights the importance of resistance training, vitamin D3/K2 supplementation, and mindful dietary practices. We discuss recent recalls on textured breast implants and the shift towards minimally invasive cosmetic procedures, such as the no-cut facelift.
Tune in for a holistic approach to health, wellness, and aesthetics that could transform your life, providing valuable insights for anyone considering or living with breast implants.
