April had a history of multiple breast revision surgeries, beginning with her first augmentation at age 18. She underwent a revision at 21, and had her implants removed and replaced again in 2022, all performed by the same surgeon. She previously had 450cc moderate profile silicone implants placed under the muscle via the transaxillary approach. She presented with asymmetry, with the right breast sitting lower than the left. The left breast was hard, painful, and tight to the touch. Both breasts showed signs of a double bubble deformity. She also reported nerve pain in the axillary area, describing it as a shooting or "pins and needles" sensation, similar to when a limb falls asleep. During her last surgery, she underwent axillary liposuction and had a lump removed. Her goals included achieving fuller, more symmetrical breasts, lifting the right breast, relieving pain in the left breast, and improving overall breast shape.
Procedure Details
Dr. Barrett performed an explant of both previous 445cc Allergan implants and removed the capsule in the left breast that gave her grade four capsular contracture. The implants were prepared and soaked in a triple antibiotic solution, then inserted into each breast using a no-touch technique with a Keller funnel. Gloves were changed prior to handling the funnel and implant for each side to maintain sterility. The incisions were meticulously closed in five layers to promote optimal long-term healing and aesthetic results.

After doing a ton of research and investigation I decided on Dr Barrett and he did a fantastic job, thank you! The staff were angels leading up to the surgery, helping me get to the big day, which had a few rocky days to say the least. At 6 months my results are in line with my expectations/wishes and I'm really glad I ended up choosing him.

I can’t say enough good things about Doctor Barrett and his team. I went in for breast augmentation (this was the first time I’ve ever had any work done) and the whole process was quick and easy. I felt right at home with Doctor Barrett and his wonderful, helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly team.

Dr. Barrett takes a holistic approach to healthcare and involves more natural remedies that most surgeons would overlook. He was super kind and patient when explaining my options for NAD IV versus injection, but also when it came to questions about skincare, over-the-counter wellness regimens, and more. Would recommend!

Dr. Barrett really listened to me and saw me as a person and not just another patient or number like the other doctors. My breasts look completely natural and I get compliments from women who say they wish they had natural breasts like mine.

If you've been considering any kind of plastic surgery then look no further than Dr. Barrett. I came in for my consultation in 2019 and decided on my surgery for breast augmentation on June 2022. I gave myself enough time to think about it, and honestly, I wish I would have gotten them sooner.

Dr. Barrett hands down is the BEST. He’s so detailed and thorough. The process of my surgery from consult to my 4 month post op was amazing! Worth every penny and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!

If you're looking for a plastic surgeon who truly knows how to pull off a transformation, look no further than Barrett Plastic Surgery Clinic in Beverly Hills. I recently took my wife to see Dr. Barrett and let me tell you, the results are nothing short of mind-blowing.
David N.
Dr. Barrett is nothing short of a plastic surgeon genius. Beyond that, Dr. B is incredibly well rounded - he’s truly a kind and caring person, your wellbeing matters to him. But the thing I like most about Dr. Barrett is that he cares about your overall health. My particular goals for plastic surgery were complicated and most of all I wanted a completely natural solution - meaning no silicone implants, only natural fat transfer. Dr. B knew exactly what to do to achieve my goal results. He was honest about what to expect, but my results turned out even better!

Dr. Barrett and his team are amazing! I had a breast augementation and the results are phenomenal. Very natural looking and people are shocked at the easy recovery and results within weeks.

Went to Dr Barrett to try Daxxify as an alternative to Botox, which seemed like I had developed a tolerance to... Can't recommend Daxxify enough! I noticed the results within a few days! Very noticeable & I am thrilled with the results! He did a fantastic job injecting & my face looks SO refreshed :)) His office is beautiful & the staff were professional & welcoming. Overall a wonderful experience, I will be back to try other treatments
