A practical guide to explant surgery and recovery

Lindsey Anne Mayr’s guide is organized around the stages of choosing explant surgery, preparing for the procedure, and recovering afterward. Its coverage combines practical planning—such as packing essentials and guidance on post-operative comfort—with food, recipes, and suggestions for social, mental, and spiritual support. The book also addresses confidence and adjustment to changes in the body. Mayr writes from the perspective of a breast implant illness survivor and advocate; the source presents breast implant illness as the context for the guide, while the book’s focus is navigating surgery and recovery.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • People considering breast implant removal who want a preparation and recovery guide
  • Those seeking information on practical, nutritional, and personal support during recovery
  • Readers interested in a survivor-advocate’s perspective on breast implant illness

Book overview

What do you do when a cosmetic surgery you chose for yourself is making you sick?

Every year, more and more women find themselves making the brave decision to
remove their breast implants due to ongoing illness-what's now recognized as breast implant illness (BII). In Explant: A Guidebook to Surgery & Recovery, BII survivor and advocate Lindsey Anne Mayr offers a compassionate, step-by-step roadmap through the emotional
decision to explant and the healing journey that follows-physically, mentally,
and spiritually.

Covering every step from preparation to recovery, this guidebook offers clarity,
support, and confidence for every stage of the journey. Here's what you'll find
inside:

- A Global Guide to Trusted Explant Surgeons
- A list of essentials to purchase and pack in preparation for your
surgery
- A five-week nutrition guide for healing your body post-op and beyond
- Healthy, whole-foods-based recipes for supporting your recovery
- Guidance on finding the social, mental, and spiritual support you need
to heal
- Practical advice for recovering physically, from how to do "T-rex
arms" to the best kinds of pillows and bras to purchase
- A manual for detoxing your body as you recover
- Tools for regaining your confidence and finding peace and acceptance
in your new body
- And much, much more!

Compassionate, empowering, and incredibly thorough, Explant is more than just a guide-it's a call to reclaim your health, rediscover your authentic self, and
embrace the healing you deserve.
