Breast Implant Explant

“I explanted with Dr. Pryor on April 3, 2023, and had an all-around amazing experience with Dr. Pryor and all his staff. Everyone made sure that I was comfortable and felt at ease from start to finish. Laura is an angel. I can't even begin to express how great she is. Laura knows firsthand what we are experiencing and comes right alongside you and walks through the whole process with you all the way to the end. I would highly recommend Pryor Health to anyone.” — Jennifer B., Breast removal implant patient, August 10, 2023

Dr. Sood: A Secret GEM!

"9 months ago, I took a leap of faith and put my trust in Dr. Sood. 11 years of breast implants had left me inflamed, sick and depressed. My body was fighting against me. I chose to undergo an total enbloc with a fat transfer and lift. I had read many negative stories on fat transfer. Horror stories. The “DON’T DO IT” reviews. I trusted the support from Dr. Sood's team and chose to go for it. Fast forward to today, Dr. Sood's work is remarkable. He is true to his craft, and his work shows it. My fat transfer was a full success. I was a AAA before implants, a DD pre-explant, and currently now a healthy, full, bouncy B. I love my breasts now more than I ever have. Before and after explants. My health has regained itself. My confidence is stronger. I have no doubt that these results would not have been as amazing had I of gone any other way. If you are looking for the right surgeon, you found him. Trade the search button for the phone. Make your appointment. You won’t regret it." - Vivid616263, August 23, 2024

He made me feel extremely comfortable before and after my explanation.

“Incredible experience with Dr Pryor. His staff is so kind and genuine and made me feel extremely comfortable before and after my explant surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Pryor, as he is very knowledgeable about Breast Implant Illness.” — RealSelf, Breast implant removal patient, June 29, 2023.

2 Year Post-Op

"I had a breast aug done, all I can say is he is the best at what he does. I felt reassured, not pressured whatsoever, and even when I wanted a bigger size, he knew that my body type would not look to scale and suggested a better solution. That is a green flag for me. Dr. Sood was very kind and made sure to explain everything in a way that was very understandable. I actually had obvious asymmetry with my breasts, and he worked his magic, and my breasts are amazing, the asymmetry is no longer there. The results were absolutely stunning, and that's pretty much it! Highly recommend, very very professional surgeon." - jellybean4888, December 16, 2024

BII Implant Removal - it was a life changing procedure.

"I had a breast implant removal surgery with Dr. Sood in August 2023. It was a life-changing procedure, literally, but the craftsmanship of his work is amazing. I had 330cc implants on both sides, leaving me with DDD breasts and a multitude of illnesses. When I had the implants removed, I remember looking at my new breasts and feeling relieved with their size and shape. I am a former college soccer player and could no longer live with overbearing breast size, and I asked Dr. Sood to make sure my breasts were small, with little to no drop. Dr. Sood truly is such an artist and was able to give me comfort, shape, and size that match my body, but also my vision. Our follow-up appointments have always been nothing short of kindness and consideration. I have never felt rushed or looked over, he has answered all of my questions and has even given suggestions about following up with other practitioners for additional recovery. I cannot recommend Dr. Sood enough for breast implant removal surgery, you will be so pleased with your results!" - DLGomez, June 24, 2024

Surgery was a huge success!

“Dr. Pryor & his team were incredible! Any fear/doubt I had, the TEAM was there anytime, day or night. Surgery was a huge success! The team & Dr. P were so incredibly supportive! Thank you, very blessed!” – RealSelf, Breast implant removal patient, October 4, 2022.

It was such a relief to find a doctor who listens to his patients.

“I could spend an hour explaining all the different ways Dr. Pryor and his staff were phenomenal and gave me the best care I could ask for, but I'll keep it short! After consultations with plastic surgeons who didn't believe BII truly existed, it was such a relief to find a doctor who listens to his patients and believes them! My first phone call with Laura made me feel confident I had found the right surgeon. Laura was there to support me through the entire process, between numerous phone calls, moving my surgical date up, and being there in person for all of my appointments. Every staff member was truly exceptional! I look back on the entire process, and I'm so thankful that I trusted in Dr. Pryor and his staff to perform my explant and lift. I am a new person today and will recommend Dr. Pryor to anyone who is looking for a plastic surgeon!” — RealSelf, Breast implant removal patient, September 9, 2022

Exceptional—couldn’t be happier with the care I received

“Dr. Pryor and his team made my experience exceptional! I couldn’t be happier with the care I received from the initial phone call with Laura to the surgery itself and the great communication with nurse Amy for the days and weeks following. You’re in great hands with Dr. Pryor and his team!” —RealSelf, Breast implant removal patient, September 8, 2022

My chest looks amazing!

"I had a great surgical experience with Dr. Sood. My case was unique in that I wanted a more masculine chest without removing my breasts entirely. I was worried I wouldn't be happy with the results, but my chest looks amazing! Dr. Sood delivered on what I asked for and did a great job of making the scars smooth. I had no healing complications, and his team was readily available anytime I had questions. I felt I was in good hands throughout the experience." - Fearless565145, June 17, 2024

They validated my symptoms and concerns and helped me through this.

“I had my breast implants removed by Dr. Pryor after 12 years. I didn’t realize I had Breast Implant Illness when my symptoms started around six years ago. After realizing something was wrong, I met with Laura and Amy at Pryor Health, and they made the process super simple. They validated my symptoms and concerns and helped me through this process. I would recommend Dr. Pryor and his amazing team if you’re concerned about your implants!” — RealSelf, Breast lift implant removal patient, September 8, 2022.
