Dr. Landon Pryor, founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pryorhealth.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PryorHealth<\/a>, has made it his mission to change that.<\/p>\n<p>Through specialized explant surgery, holistic recovery protocols, and the establishment of one of the nation\u2019s only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biicentersofexcellence.com\/\">Breast Implant Illness Centers of Excellence<\/a>, he\u2019s helping women reclaim their health and their confidence.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Pryor\u2019s path shifted in 2018 when he attended a seminar in Rockford, Illinois. There, he heard stories from women suffering with BII\u2014symptoms often dismissed as \u201cin their head.\u201d Having performed breast augmentations earlier in his career, he was deeply moved.<\/p>\n<p>That moment inspired a radical decision: to focus exclusively on explant surgeries and holistic post-operative care. \u201cToo many women were leaving their doctors without answers,\u201d he says. \u201cAt PryorHealth, we validate every patient\u2019s experience and provide real solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Although BII is not yet formally recognized as a medical diagnosis, PryorHealth is advancing the science. Partnering with medical students at the University of Illinois College of Medicine, the practice supports ongoing research to better understand the mechanisms of BII and contribute data to the field. By engaging the next generation of physicians, Dr. Pryor is helping ensure that BII receives the academic and clinical attention it deserves.<\/p>\n<p>Central to his work is total capsulectomy explant surgery, which removes both the implant and surrounding capsule tissue that can harbor silicone and inflammatory substances. \u201cRemoving just the implant isn\u2019t enough,\u201d Dr. Pryor explains. \u201cA full capsulectomy gives patients the best chance for meaningful recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But the care doesn\u2019t stop there. PryorHealth integrates holistic therapies to address inflammation, detoxification, and long-term healing. Patients benefit from adjunctive treatments such as IV therapy to support detox and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy to reduce inflammation and promote recovery.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_673021\" aria-describedby=\"figcaption_attachment_673021\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-673021\" src=\"https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Dr.-Pryor-and-Laura-Bowden.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1066\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Dr.-Pryor-and-Laura-Bowden.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Dr.-Pryor-and-Laura-Bowden-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Dr.-Pryor-and-Laura-Bowden-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Dr.-Pryor-and-Laura-Bowden-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Dr.-Pryor-and-Laura-Bowden-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Dr.-Pryor-and-Laura-Bowden-357x238.jpg 357w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"figcaption_attachment_673021\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Dr. Pryor and Patient<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Education and emotional support are also core to the practice. Patient advocates like Laura Bowden, a longtime BII voice, and Yvette Melby, a survivor and explant coach, guide women through the process. \u201cWomen should never feel alone or dismissed when dealing with BII,\u201d says Dr. Pryor.<\/p>\n<p>The team\u2019s expertise extends further with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Aditya Sood, who specializes in advanced explant techniques, including fat transfer for patients seeking safe volume restoration. This multidisciplinary approach\u2014surgical precision paired with holistic support\u2014positions PryorHealth as a trusted destination for women navigating BII in Illinois and Florida.<\/p>\n<p>Many women treated at PryorHealth describe transformative improvements in health and quality of life. Patients who once struggled with debilitating fatigue, joint pain, or cognitive fog often regain energy, mobility, and mental clarity.<\/p>\n<p>Others who had incomplete explants elsewhere found relief only after receiving comprehensive care at PryorHealth. For them, the combination of total capsulectomy, therapeutic adjuncts, and holistic support marked the turning point in their recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Since launching the BII Centers of Excellence, PryorHealth has become a hub for awareness and education, working with advocates and researchers to shift how the medical community and public view BII. For Dr. Pryor, the mission is clear: \u201cOur work is about more than surgery. It\u2019s about giving women answers, restoring confidence, and creating a space where their health concerns are taken seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Breast Implant Illness and
