Ep. 21 - Clinical Outcomes After Explant Surgery for Breast Implant Illness
In this episode of The Scalpel’s Edge, Dr. Tim Sayed reviews a newly published study from Colombia examining outcomes in women with breast implant illness following explant surgery. With over 125 patients and 18 months of follow-up, this research reveals significant improvements in symptoms such as joint pain, fatigue, and hair loss — and offers valuable insight into the science, skepticism, and evolving understanding of BII. Dr. Sayed breaks down the data, discusses parallels with U.S. studies, and explains why patient-reported results continue to shape the conversation around breast implant safety and holistic healing.
