The day I charge a fellow surgeon to learn from me is the day I hang up my scalpel. Medicine was built on mentorship, not monetization. If you’re selling ‘exclusive access’ to knowledge that should be freely shared, you’re not an expert — you’re an opportunist. We took an oath. Act like it. ”

If I ever, in my life, charge a colleague to share my ideas and experience, please call me out. Selling yourself as an “expert” is an embarrassment to Hippocrates. Shame on you.

Patients deserve accurate, evidence-based information.

The claim that “1 in 4 women with breast implants develop autoimmune disease” is a misinterpretation of database research.
Large studies show a small relative association, not a 25% absolute risk.
Autoimmune diseases are rare and the overall likelihood remains low.

Systematic reviews demonstrate no consistent causal link.

What I would like to see in 2026 👆🏻

I always recommend a second opinion before undertaking plastic surgery.

Always ensure that your surgery is performed by a registered and fully qualified plastic and reconstructive surgeon.

✅It’s important to understand that not all results are the same, and individual outcomes may vary.
