Short conversational YouTube clip (Robert Whitfield MD) about preventing problems after breast implant surgery. Whitfield emphasizes sharing his post-op programming with patients and promoting lifestyle measures—supporting immunity, lymphatic drainage, diet, rest, and hydration—to reduce implant-related complications and improve recovery.
Well, in my world, we say never does one thing cause one thing. Right.
So I feel like I can help more patients by, number one, providing our programming and what we've learned about and basically reverse engineer what I do after surgery. So if you just take everything I do for patients pre op and post op, and give it to the patient who has implants, who doesn't know whether or not they have this problem.
Yeah.
And if they do have this problem, they certainly don't want to come see Rob and Austin to figure out what to do about the problem, because nobody really wants surgery for this problem. They had surgery. And if you ask most of them, it was one of the worst surgeries they ever had. Almost uniformly when, when, you know, they talk about it. And there's a number of reasons why that's a problem. But, you know, the most important things are, is certainly helping someone's immunity. You know, proper lymphatic drainage, proper diet, proper rest, proper hydration, those things all cumulatively add up to make a big impact.
Well, in my world, we say never does one thing cause one thing. Right. And what you're saying is essentially lifestyle. If, if that's, if you're not doing anything to clean it up, eventually you're going to have a drainage issue and a detox issue, because we live in a very toxic soup. And if they apply what you teach in your programs before, like, as soon as they get the breast implants and they can keep everything else clean up so that they can enhance their ability to handle the implants. Is that what I'm hearing? Just for clarity, I think, you know.
You make the appropriate observation, the world is not getting any easier to live in. And so the things that we understand that we can, you know, you know, control, if you will, to the best of your ability, like the air you breathe, the fluid you drink, what you drink it out of, the food you eat, the quality of the food you eat. And then really, I think the most important thing that's really underrated in all of this is sleep. If you, if I get a poor night's sleep, I'm not going to perform adequately. And universally, every patient comes in and says, in the morning when I see them, they're like, hey, did you get a good night's sleep? That's a great question. And I'm pretty rigorous about my sleep habit.
