- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Wish I Did This Surgery YEARS Ago!
I have had 'Breast Implant Illness'-related issues for years (rashes and other skin issues, inflammation, breast pain) and I felt strongly that, after 19 years (which is WAY too long btw) I wanted my implants taken out. Especially after doing a platinum hair test confirmed that there was a strong possibility that my implants were leaking. Even if your implants are still intact, that doesn't mean that there are no toxins released in your body. And in my case my fears were confirmed, because after the explant surgery and capsulectomy I learned that one of my (cohesive gel) silicone implants were completely raptured. Dr. Rothfield removed the implants and all the capsule tissue as well.
Dr. Rothfield was recommended to me by the PA at my general doctor's office and I was planning on having consults with different plastic surgeons. But after my initial consult with Dr. Rothfield I decided to cancel all other appointments and move forward.
What was very important to me in the decision-making was:
1) that Dr. Rothfield did not try to convince me to replace my implants
2) he has a lot of experience and great reviews
3) there was no long waiting list (because I wanted them out ASAP)
4) that his staff is very attentive and friendly. Every appointment I had I never had to wait, which is unique nowadays ;-)
It's been the BEST decision I made for my health; I am no longer dealing with the health issues that I was suffering from for years which is the most important thing for me. And that after only a month... I can't wait to see how I feel in a couple of months!
As a former fitness model, my appearance has always been very important to me and so I was a bit fearful about how everything would look after the explant. And I am so pleased with the outcome; hardly noticeable scars (because I did not need a lift) and they actually look great. I still have a nice small C cup after having a DD cup for nearly 20 years.
The reason why I am writing this long review is that I wish there were more explant reviews online, and if anyone reading this is doubting doing an explant as well: Dr. Rothfield is your go-to surgeon. The recovery is very different than implant surgery, less painful and I was back in the office within a week. I was able to work from home while I was recovering so it also did not affect my work too much.
I wish I would have done this 10 years earlier! Thank you Dr. Rothfield.
