In the evolving world of aesthetic surgery, innovation is not only welcome—it is necessary. As women increasingly seek surgical results that are not just beautiful but durable and natural, plastic surgeons are challenged to refine their techniques and reimagine long-standing procedures. Among the most revolutionary advancements in breast surgery is “The Internal Bra,” a technique pioneered and perfected by Dr. Don R. Revis Jr. of South Florida Plastic Surgery.

But what exactly is the Internal Bra? How does it differ from traditional breast augmentation or revision methods? And more importantly, why is it considered one of the most refined and reliable options for achieving long-lasting, aesthetically pleasing outcomes?

Let’s take a deeper look into this game-changing technique.

What Is the Internal Bra?

At its core, the Internal Bra is not a physical bra—it’s a surgical technique that reinforces internal breast support by creating a strong, stable foundation for breast implants. Imagine an invisible scaffold within the chest that holds the implant in place, preventing downward drift, lateral displacement, or the telltale signs of implant aging such as bottoming out or “double bubble” deformities.

Dr. Revis developed this approach as a response to the limitations he observed in conventional breast surgery techniques. Rather than relying solely on skin tension or breast tissue (which can weaken over time), the Internal Bra provides deep, internal support—giving the implant a structured pocket to rest in, with carefully defined borders for superior control, shape, and longevity.

How Is It Performed?

The Internal Bra technique is executed through meticulous surgical precision. During surgery:

1. A precise implant pocket is created in the optimal position using carefully measured anatomical landmarks.
2. The inferolateral (lower outer) boundaries of this pocket are reinforced using permanent internal sutures.
3. These sutures act as a hammock, mimicking the supportive structure of a bra—except they’re located entirely beneath the skin.
4. The final result is a symmetrical, elevated breast contour with enhanced projection and support.

This technique is employed not only for first-time breast augmentations but also for complex revision surgeries, where implant malposition or loss of lower pole support has occurred.

Internal Bra vs. Traditional Techniques

Here’s how the Internal Bra sets itself apart:

Aspect	Traditional Augmentation	Internal Bra Technique
Implant Support	Relies on skin and natural tissue	Reinforced with permanent internal sutures
Longevity of Results	May require revision after 5-10 years	Significantly prolongs implant stability
Implant Positioning	Less precise control	Precisely defined internal implant pocket
Post-Surgery Risks	Prone to bottoming out, lateral drift, and rippling	Minimizes common implant complications
Best For	First-time augmentations with strong native tissue	Primary and revision patients, especially those with thin skin or prior implant issues

Who Is a Candidate for the Internal Bra?

This approach is ideal for:

• Patients undergoing breast revision surgery due to implant malposition or poor results from previous procedures.
• Women with thin skin, weak breast tissue, or poor lower pole support.
• Those choosing extra-large implants, which require additional internal reinforcement.
• Any patient seeking long-term results and minimal risk of future complications.

Even patients without any previous surgery can benefit from this technique—especially if they desire beautifully sculpted breasts that resist the natural pull of gravity over time.

Results That Speak for Themselves

Dr. Revis performs over 650 breast surgeries annually, many of which involve the Internal Bra method. Patients frequently report not only stunning aesthetic outcomes but also a sense of physical confidence that comes from knowing their implants are securely supported from within.

His technique has been featured in medical journals, educational symposiums, and countless success stories. For women who have faced disappointment from earlier procedures—or for those who want to get it right the first time—the Internal Bra is a breath of fresh air in a field that often leans too heavily on outdated norms.

What to Expect After Surgery

Recovery is similar to that of traditional breast augmentation, with most patients resuming daily activities within a few days. Dr. Revis provides detailed post-operative care instructions, including breast massage techniques and follow-up guidance, to ensure optimal results.

Because of the deep-layered internal support, many patients experience better implant stability, improved cleavage, and reduced discomfort during healing.

FAQs About the Internal Bra

Q: Will the sutures used in the Internal Bra be felt or seen?
 A: No. These sutures are placed deep within the breast and are completely invisible and non-palpable from the outside.

Q: Does it increase the risk of complications?
 A: On the contrary, the Internal Bra reduces risks like bottoming out, implant malposition, and need for early revision.

Q: Is this technique only for revision surgery?
 A: No. It’s suitable for both primary and revision breast surgeries, especially when long-term implant support is desired.

Final Thoughts: Why the Internal Bra May Be Right for You

If you’re seeking elegance, precision, and enduring beauty, the Internal Bra offers an unparalleled approach to breast enhancement. It’s a reflection of how cosmetic surgery should evolve—with the patient’s long-term well-being, confidence, and satisfaction at the heart of the process.

With Dr. Don Revis’s renowned expertise and an uncompromising commitment to surgical excellence, the Internal Bra isn’t just a technique—it’s a transformation.
