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.

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 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 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!

Mimi M.
I went with my daughter who wanted first time Botox. I discussed with the Dr. That I get Botox too but it never worked on the "bunny lines", he suggested I try his technique because you must inject in the precise muscle, so I did it and it worked!! It took a few days to settle in but it finally happened. No more bunny lines.. I will be going to see him in the future for any future opinions on procedures. I trust his judgment.

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

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.
Marcella D.
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!
