I’m 100% Glad I Got my Breast Implants Taken Out...

From the moment I walked through the door, I knew that I was in the right place. Her staff greeted me in the kindest manner and her office didn’t have that white, sterile feel that most doctors offices feel like. It was like being at home! The reason for my visit was that my breast implants were bothering me both inside and out. I started having all these weird symptoms like burning joint pain, memory loss, reddened eyes, dark circles under eyes, fatigue, and sharp shooting breast pain. Dr. DeRosa is a believer of “Breast Implant Illness” and my consultation solidified my case that my breast implants were causing me harm, that I wasn’t benefitting from them, and that they needed to come out! I only had my silicone breast implants for 3 years and if I didn’t do my research and listen to myself, I have no idea what kind of shape I would be in later down the road. The surgery was a breeze! The recovery wasn’t so bad, apart from having JP drains for two weeks and not being able to raise my arms. I’m glad she doesn’t do lifts, because my breasts look amazing after getting my implants out. Everything healed very nicely and went back to my pre-Implant size. Dr. DeRosa is the only plastic surgeon in Michigan that does enbloc/capsulectomy and a believer in BII as well. She’s doing a study on BII that is being funded by Beamount Hospital. I hope that one day BII will be a real medical diagnosis and that women will be compensated for all the trouble they have went through. All my symptoms I was experiencing went away within getting the implants out and two weeks out my body looked less inflamed. Dr. DeRosa exemplified everything that I would want a doctor to be and I’m glad I chose her!
