Your breast implants may not be the problem—but your body, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals may have changed. ✨

More women are revisiting breast augmentations performed 10, 15, or even 20+ years ago and asking a different question:

“What looks and feels right for me now?”

Breast implant revision isn’t always about correcting a complication. For some patients, it’s an opportunity to:

• Downsize to a smaller, lighter implant
• Replace aging or ruptured implants
• Correct bottoming out or implant malposition
• Address capsular contracture or rippling
• Improve animation deformity
• Add a breast lift or internal support
• Restore coverage with fat grafting
• Remove implants altogether

The goal of modern breast revision is not simply to replace an old implant with a new one. Dr. John Burns evaluates the implant, breast tissue, skin, capsule, muscle, breast fold, and implant pocket to create a plan for the breast you have today.

After more than 25 years in aesthetic breast surgery, Dr. Burns sees revision as the next chapter for many breast augmentation patients—not necessarily a sign that something went wrong.

A Mommy Makeover isn’t one procedure—it’s a customized plan to restore what pregnancy can change. ✨

For this patient, the goal was to address both the breasts and abdomen while creating a result that still looked natural, feminine, and proportional to her frame.

Her Mommy Makeover combined breast augmentation + tummy tuck with Lipo 360.

For the breasts, augmentation restored volume and fullness that can be lost after pregnancy and breastfeeding, creating a fuller, more balanced breast shape.

For the abdomen, the tummy tuck addressed loose skin and abdominal changes that diet and exercise alone cannot correct.

But the transformation doesn’t stop at the front of the abdomen.

Lipo 360 contours around the waist, flanks, love handles, and torso to create a smoother transition and more defined waist from every angle.

Together, we’re able to address:

✨ Lost breast volume
✨ Breast shape and proportion
✨ Loose abdominal skin
✨ Abdominal contour
✨ Waist and flank fullness
✨ Overall torso balance

This is why I approach a Mommy Makeover as a 360° transformation rather than a collection of individual procedures. Every part needs to work together.

The goal? Not to look “done.”

It’s to create a refined, natural silhouette that feels like you again.

Menopause changes more than hormones—it can change your skin, too. ✨

During the first five years after menopause, women may experience a significant decline in collagen, along with changes in hydration, elasticity, firmness, texture, and facial volume.

You may start noticing:
• Drier, more sensitive skin
• Fine lines becoming more visible
• Crepey or thinner-looking skin
• Less definition along the jawline
• Changes in the neck and eyelids
• Loss of facial volume
• Increased pigmentation and uneven texture

The key isn’t trying to stop aging—it’s understanding what your skin needs as it changes.

From daily SPF and medical-grade skincare to collagen-stimulating treatments like XERF, laser rejuvenation, injectables, and facial fat transfer, the right approach can help preserve skin quality and address changes at the appropriate layer.

Think in decades, not appointments. Protect. Preserve. Stimulate. Restore. 🤍

Read our latest blog, “What Happens to Your Skin in the First 5 Years After Menopause?” to learn what’s happening beneath the surface—and how to build a thoughtful plan for aging well.

A tummy tuck should do more than flatten the stomach—it should reshape the entire waist. ✨

This before-and-after is a great example of why I often combine a tummy tuck with Lipo 360.

A tummy tuck addresses what liposuction alone cannot: loose abdominal skin and weakened or separated abdominal muscles. The goal is to create a flatter, firmer abdominal foundation while removing excess skin.

But treating only the front of the abdomen can leave the transformation incomplete.

That’s where Lipo 360 comes in.

By strategically contouring the abdomen, waist, flanks, love handles, and back, we can approach the torso as a complete 3-dimensional shape rather than treating one isolated area.

The combination is designed to create:

✨ A flatter, tighter abdomen
✨ A more defined waist
✨ Improved abdominal muscle support
✨ Smoother flanks and love handles
✨ Better waist-to-hip proportion
✨ A more balanced contour from every angle

One detail I pay particular attention to is the belly button and incision placement. A natural-looking umbilicus and a low scar that can be concealed beneath underwear or a bikini are important parts of a refined tummy tuck result.

The goal isn’t simply a smaller stomach.

It’s a natural, proportionate hourglass contour that looks beautiful from the front, side, and back.

Considering abdominal contouring after pregnancy, weight loss, or changes with age?

What if you could sharpen your jawline and tighten your neck—without a traditional neck lift scar? 👀

This before-and-after shows what I call a No Scar Neck Lift, combining neck liposuction + Renuvion skin tightening to address two common concerns at the same time: unwanted fullness beneath the chin and loose skin along the jawline and neck.

First, neck liposuction is used to strategically remove excess fat and sculpt the area beneath the chin.

Then, Renuvion is used beneath the skin to contract tissue and improve skin tightness—helping create a cleaner transition from the jawline into the neck.

The result?

✨ More defined jawline
✨ Reduced fullness beneath the chin
✨ Tighter-looking neck contour
✨ Improved profile
✨ No traditional neck lift incisions around the ears

For the right patient, this can be an excellent alternative when you’re not quite ready for a surgical facelift or neck lift, but liposuction alone may not provide enough skin tightening.

The key is patient selection. Not every neck needs the same procedure, and more significant skin laxity may still require a traditional neck lift.

Would you choose this or a traditional neck lift?

✨ Before & After: Breast Augmentation with Breast Lift (Augmentation Mastopexy) ✨

When a patient has both breast volume loss and breast sagging (ptosis), an implant alone may not be enough. A breast augmentation with breast lift, also known as an augmentation mastopexy or Aug/Pexy, addresses both concerns in a single operation.

The breast lift (mastopexy) reshapes and elevates the existing breast tissue, removes excess skin, and repositions the ni**le and ar**la to a more youthful position. The breast augmentation restores volume and helps create upper pole fullness, projection, and cleavage.

The key is getting the breast tissue and implant to work together. The implant provides volume; the lift controls shape and position.

In this before-and-after result, you can see the improvement in:

🔹 Breast position and elevation
🔹 Upper pole fullness
🔹 Projection and roundness
🔹 Breast symmetry and proportion
🔹 Overall shape and contour

For patients who have experienced changes after pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, or aging, combining a breast lift with implants can be one of the most effective ways to restore both volume and shape.

A successful Aug/Pexy shouldn’t simply make the breasts larger. It should make them balanced, lifted, proportionate, and beautifully matched to the patient’s anatomy.

✨ Before & After: Mommy Makeover with Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation ✨

A Mommy Makeover doesn’t always require breast implants.

This patient wanted to restore her abdomen and replace breast volume lost over time while keeping her result soft, natural, and implant-free. Her customized Mommy Makeover combined a tummy tuck with Lipo 360 and fat transfer breast augmentation.

For the abdomen, I performed a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) to remove loose skin and restore a flatter abdominal contour. Lipo 360 was then used to sculpt the waist and surrounding areas, creating a more refined, three-dimensional silhouette.

Instead of discarding the harvested fat, we carefully processed and repurposed it for the breasts. With fat transfer breast augmentation, her own fat was strategically injected to restore volume, improve shape, and create natural fullness—without a breast implant.

One operation. Two complementary goals: sculpt where we want less volume and restore it where we want more.

The result is a balanced Mommy Makeover that looks natural because it was designed around her own anatomy.
