Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Angela Champion

Sourced directly from Dr. Angela Champion's social posts and replies.

What are the benefits of Ideal Implants?
Ideal Implants offer a natural look and feel like gel implants due to their double lumen structure. They are soft, do not ripple, and if ruptured, the rupture is immediately apparent, eliminating the need for MRIs. Dr. Champion considers them the safest implant option in the US regarding capsular contracture and deflation.

What are the differences between Xeomin and Botox?
Xeomin is a pure form of botulinum toxin, sometimes called 'pure tox', used for facial rejuvenation, while traditional Botox contains accessory proteins and additives. Xeomin can be stored at room temperature and has no extra additive ingredients, while Botox needs to be refrigerated. Xeomin has a lower likelihood of developing antibodies, making it a good option for those who have used Botox in the past without success. Botox is often used for deeper wrinkles, while Xeomin is often used for fine lines. The mixing and injection techniques are very similar, and the results are comparable.

What are Dr. Champion's recommendations for maintaining youthful skin on a budget?
Dr. Champion recommends using retinol or retin-A products for fine lines and wrinkles on the surface of the skin, combined with Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin treatments to temporarily paralyze muscles of facial expression. Even one Botox treatment per year can make a significant difference in the upper part of the face.

What is involved in upper eyelid surgery?
Upper eyelid surgery is often the first facial aging procedure people consider in their 30s. It can be performed under local anesthesia and involves removing excess skin through an incision in the eyelid fold. Sutures are removed one week after surgery. The procedure opens up the eyes and can take up to 10 years off your face. Combining it with Botox can enhance the rejuvenating effect.

What is Dr. Champion's approach to breast implant sizing?
Dr. Champion loves to help patients find the perfect implant that fits their lifestyle. While some women prefer larger implants, she also caters to those seeking subtle fullness, offering smaller implant sizes referred to as the 'yoga boot' in her Newport Beach practice. She considers a 600cc implant a full double D in most women and prefers the look of a 400cc implant on some patients.

What is Dr. Champion's approach to breast implant removal?
Dr. Champion offers breast implant removal, even for patients not experiencing issues, as goals change throughout life. She often performs fat transfer during removal to add volume to the upper pole, achieving the best overall natural result. The procedure can be done under local anesthesia and is considered fairly painless with an easy recovery.

What are the benefits of general anesthesia?
Dr. Champion considers general anesthesia very safe and effective, providing anesthesiologists with more control of the airway and monitoring. It makes for a pleasant patient experience, feeling like a ten-minute nap, and is a great option for many procedures.
Source →
Does Dr. Champion use drains for tummy tucks?
Dr. Champion does not use drains for tummy tucks. Her technique has changed to include progressive tension sutures, which close the space under the abdominal flap, giving a better result. Progressive tension sutures, combined with a compression garment, eliminate the need for drains and help reduce seroma formation. Not using drains is more comfortable for patients.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$163

Payments

7

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Angela Champion received $163 across 7 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was REVANCE THERAPEUTICS, INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
