Breast Implant Illness

If you suspect Breast Implant Illness, you’re not alone — and you’re not imagining it. Our holistic recovery programmes are here to support your healing, every step of the way.

Understanding Breast Implant Illness (BII):

Breast Implant Illness (BII) is a term used to describe a range of symptoms that may develop after breast augmentation with saline or silicone implants. While implants are often considered safe, research and patient experience increasingly suggest that they can disrupt the immune system, trigger inflammation, and contribute to systemic toxicity—especially if rupture or leakage occurs.

Some complications are visible and localised, such as swelling, skin rashes, or pain. Others are far more subtle—chronic fatigue, brain fog, hormonal imbalances, and autoimmune reactions—that can be difficult to trace back to the implants.

Symptoms and Health Impacts

Women suffering from BII often experience a combination of the following:

Chronic fatigue
Headaches or migraines
Hair thinning or loss
Hormonal imbalances and thyroid dysfunction
Insomnia
Gastrointestinal issues (bloating, IBS, reflux)
Sudden-onset allergies or chemical sensitivities
Anxiety, mood swings, or depression
Skin rashes or thinning breast tissue
Swollen lymph nodes
Autoimmune-like symptoms

Though rare, Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is a known, serious complication that requires immediate medical attention. It’s a form of immune system cancer—not to be confused with breast cancer—linked to textured implants.

The Emotional Weight of BII

One of the most difficult aspects of BII is being dismissed. Many women are told their symptoms are unrelated, “normal,” or purely psychological. At Neomed, we take your experience seriously. We understand that this condition is not just physical—it can affect your confidence, relationships, and sense of control over your own body.

We’re here to validate your experience—and help you reclaim your health.

Our Post-Explant Healing Programmes

At Neomed, we offer three specialised programmes designed to support women recovering from BII—particularly post-explant surgery. These programmes are tailored to the body’s unique needs after implant removal and focus on full-system regeneration.

Each programme may include:

Whole-body detoxification to remove residual toxins
Immune system support and inflammation reduction
Lymphatic drainage therapies to assist natural cleansing
Hormonal rebalancing using nutritional, naturopathic, and IV protocols
Digestive and microbiome restoration through advanced gut therapies
Musculoskeletal rehabilitation with expert physiotherapy
Emotional and psychological support via wellness coaching and mind-body therapies

Whether you’re preparing for explant surgery or are already in recovery, our team will meet you where you are—with compassion, experience, and a plan.

Unlike conventional treatment models, we don’t isolate symptoms—we look at the full picture. Our clinic combines advanced medical science with a holistic care philosophy to provide truly integrative healing.

You’ll work with a multidisciplinary team who understands the nuances of BII and takes your concerns seriously. Here, you’re not just treated—you’re cared for, believed, and empowered.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Breast Implant Illness and how is it diagnosed?

Breast Implant Illness (BII) refers to a collection of symptoms believed to be caused by breast implants. There’s no single diagnostic test, but at Neomed, we use advanced functional assessments and clinical evaluations to explore the root causes of your symptoms and guide treatment.

Do I need to remove my implants to begin treatment?

While explant surgery is often a part of recovery, it is not a requirement to begin care. Many women start our programmes before or after surgery. We tailor support based on your stage of recovery and personal health goals.

What makes Neomed’s BII recovery programme unique?

Our approach goes beyond detox or surgery follow-up. We support the full system—liver, gut, hormones, immunity, and emotional wellbeing—through an integrative plan that includes medical, naturopathic, and therapeutic care.

How long does recovery typically take after explant surgery?

Recovery timelines vary, but most guests begin feeling improvements within weeks. Our programmes are designed to accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and rebuild resilience so you can return to health with clarity and confidence.

Will my symptoms completely disappear with treatment?

While outcomes differ for each individual, many guests experience a significant reduction in symptoms and an overall improvement in energy, mood, and wellbeing. Our goal is to support long-term healing, not just temporary relief.
