Education. Innovation. Leadership.

Today was an incredible Motiva Preserve Training Day here in Dallas. One of the greatest honors in plastic surgery is not only refining your craft — but passing that knowledge on to other outstanding physicians committed to excellence.

The Preserve minimally invasive breast augmentation technique is truly a revolutionary step forward. This procedure is performed awake with minimal anesthesia, preserves natural breast anatomy, avoids animation deformity, and allows for an ultra-fast recovery that is changing what patients expect from breast augmentation.

It was a privilege to host talented, board-certified plastic surgeons who traveled to learn this technique and take this technology back to their own communities. Advancing patient care through education is how our specialty continues to evolve.

I’m also proud to work alongside Motiva, a company that prioritizes education, safety, and long-term outcomes — partnering exclusively with qualified, board-certified plastic surgeons and emphasizing training over profit. That foundation matters.

We look forward to many more training days ahead, helping shape the next generation of surgeons and continuing to elevate the standard of breast augmentation.

A beautiful tummy tuck isn’t just about removing skin.
It’s about design.

✔ Low incision placement
✔ Curved panty-line contour
✔ Tension-free closure
✔ Scar optimization

The incision should enhance the hourglass shape—not distract from it.

Tuberous breast deformity requires a specialized, thoughtful approach to restore natural shape, balance, and confidence.

This condition is characterized by:
▫️ Short ni**le-to-fold distance
▫️ Constricted base diameter
▫️ Herniation of the ni**le-ar**lar complex (puffy-appearing ar**la)
▫️ Lack of lower pole fullness

In this case, correction involved a precise periar**lar approach, lowering the inframammary fold to create proper breast length, performing radial scoring to release the constricted tissue, and placing implants in a subglandular/subfascial plane to restore natural lower pole fullness and shape.

The implant does more than add size — it reshapes the breast, expands the tight base, and creates beautiful proportion. Even in more severe tuberous cases, the transformation can be dramatic and life-changing — and this result speaks for itself.

Tuberous breast correction is one of the most rewarding procedures I perform because it truly restores both form and confidence.

On-table transformation ✨

This beautiful patient came to see me ready for a change. She originally had 375cc implants but felt they were too large for her frame. Over time, gravitational aging caused increased distance between the ni**le and the breast fold — a condition often referred to as “bottoming out.”

In surgery, we performed a comprehensive breast revision:

• 🔄 Implant exchange from 375cc to a 205cc next-generation Motiva round implant
• ✂️ Precise pocket downsizing to perfectly fit the smaller implant
• ⬆️ Breast lift to remove excess skin and restore a youthful position
• 🧵 Internal mesh “bra” support to reinforce the lower pole and help prevent future sagging

The result? A lighter, more proportionate, beautifully lifted breast contour with long-term structural support.

Breast implants are not lifetime devices — and revision surgery is a powerful opportunity to refine your results. Whether you want to downsize, upsize, correct bottoming out, address rippling, or improve shape, we can customize a plan to give you the outcome you truly want.

I’m Dr. John L. Burns, Jr., board-certified plastic surgeon in Dallas, specializing in advanced breast surgery and complex revision procedures. With over 25 years of experience and national recognition for excellence in aesthetic surgery, my focus is always on natural, balanced, long-lasting results.

✨ NEXT LEVEL RESULTS ✨
Corset • 3-Vector Muscle Plication • High-Definition Contouring
When it comes to tummy tuck surgery, details matter — and this result speaks for itself.

Dr. John L. Burns, Jr. is known in Dallas and beyond for his signature Corset Tummy Tuck, a refined evolution of traditional abdominoplasty designed to sculpt, tighten, and define — not just flatten.

Here’s what makes this transformation truly next level:

👙 Low Bikini Incision
Placed discreetly within the hip bones and kept ultra-low so it hides seamlessly in swimwear and lingerie.

💪 Corset 3-Vector Muscle Plication
Instead of simply tightening the muscles in a straight line, Dr. Burns uses a three-vector “corset” technique — tightening vertically and diagonally — to create a narrower waist, flatter abdomen, and true hourglass contour.

⚡ VASER High-Definition Ultrasound Liposuction
Selective fat sculpting of the upper abdomen, flanks, and waist enhances muscle definition and creates beautiful transitions from front to back.

🔄 Delicate Belly Button Inset
A refined, natural-appearing umbilicus is essential. Dr. Burns carefully shapes and insets the belly button for a youthful, elegant finish — never overdone, never artificial.

This is not just a tummy tuck.
It’s architectural contouring with precision.

Mini Mommy Makeover ✨ Intraoperative Precision. Athletic Proportions. Natural Results.

Not every mommy makeover needs to be “maximal.” Many of our patients are petite, athletic women who have had children and simply want refinement — not dramatic change.

In this intraoperative case, we performed a Mini Mommy Makeover tailored to a smaller frame and active lifestyle.

🔹 Breast Augmentation:
For many athletic patients, a conservative implant is key. Larger implants can interfere with performance goals, posture, and comfort. Using advanced 3D breast implant imaging, we remove all guesswork — allowing patients to visualize different sizes before surgery and choose what truly fits their body and goals.

At surgery, we carefully correct asymmetries and position the implants precisely on the chest wall. In this case, we used Motiva Ergonomix® implants, known for their natural teardrop shape and ability to move fluidly with the breast — delivering soft, balanced, beautifully athletic results. 🔹 Mini Tummy Tuck Technique:
A full tummy tuck isn’t always necessary. For the right candidate, Dr. Burns’ signature mini approach includes:
1️⃣ Low-set bikini incision
2️⃣ Short scar hidden inside the hip bones
3️⃣ Corset muscle plication with three vectors to cinch the waist
4️⃣ Belly button float (no scar around the navel in select patients)
5️⃣ Precise VASER high-definition 3D liposuction to contour the waist and torso

The result? A tighter core, sculpted waistline, and natural breast restoration — without overcorrection.

Most mini mommy makeover patients recover quickly and return to normal activities within weeks.

Her Mommy Makeover Breast Story ✨ | Before ➡️ After

After pregnancy and breastfeeding, this beautiful mom noticed what so many women experience—deflated breasts with loss of shape and perkiness. She wanted to feel confident again without looking overdone.

Using a Dual Plane III breast augmentation, I was able to perfectly center her natural breast tissue over the implant, restoring fullness, projection, and balance. This technique is ideal for mild to moderate breast drooping and deflation, allowing the implant and breast to work together in natural harmony—often avoiding the need for a breast lift.
In her case, a lift wasn’t necessary.

We achieved her goals using a Motiva® Round Demi Profile 330 cc implant, creating perky, round, beautifully full breasts that look youthful, proportional, and natural.
Every patient is unique—while more severe sagging may require a lift, the dual plane approach can be a powerful solution for the right candidate.

Age is just a number — confidence is timeless. ✨

This beautiful patient is over 60 and wanted to restore the breast volume she had gradually lost over time. Many women believe breast rejuvenation isn’t possible later in life — but with thoughtful planning and precise technique, natural, elegant results are absolutely achievable.

In her case, I performed a dual plane breast augmentation, allowing the implant and breast tissue to align harmoniously for a smooth, youthful contour. We selected a conservative, lower-profile implant to create fullness without excess weight — keeping her result proportional to her body and mindful of long-term comfort for her back, shoulders, and neck.

When performing breast augmentation in postmenopausal women, it’s critical to consider:
✔️ Individual aesthetic goals
✔️ Skin quality and tissue support
✔️ Implant size and projection
✔️ Long-term skeletal changes and durability

The result? Fuller, perkier breasts that fit beautifully in clothing — refreshed, not overdone. Natural. Balanced. Age-appropriate elegance.
