Breast Explant or Revision
Improve or correct previous breast surgery results with a personalized revision plan in Beverly Hills, CA.

Common conditions we treat
Many patients may require a breast revision to address issues from previous implants or other breast procedures. From problematic scars to removing implants entirely, Dr. Lee evaluates each concern individually to develop the right treatment approach.
Implant Issues
Concerns with implant malposition, rippling, or dissatisfaction with prior results. Revision surgery can refine shape, position, & symmetry or remove implants entirely if desired.
Capsular Contracture
Firmness, distortion, or discomfort from scar tissue around an implant. Treatment can address the capsule and restore a softer, more natural contour.
Size Change
Desire to go larger or smaller, or to update implant type over time. Revision options can align results with current goals and anatomy.
Revision is appropriate for patients who want to address implant related concerns or refine their result. We review your surgical history and anatomy to recommend options that improve comfort, symmetry, and appearance.
- Have concerns with a prior augmentation such as capsular contracture, rippling, or implant position.
- Want to change implant size, shape, or type for a better match to your goals.
- Are in good overall health and understand revision surgery can be more complex than primary surgery.
- Can provide details from prior procedures when available to support surgical planning.
- Have realistic expectations and understand that more than one step may be needed in some cases.

Life changing
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Johnson C. Lee and his incredible team! After years of suffering from back pain due to my large breasts, I finally decided to go through with a breast reduction—and it was the best decision of my life. I’m only on day 5 of recovery, and I already feel like a brand-new person. The relief is unbelievable, and my results are beyond amazing—my breasts look soooo good!
Dr. Lee is truly a master of his craft. He took the time to understand my concerns, explained everything thoroughly, and gave me results that exceeded my expectations. And I have to give a special shoutout to his patient coordinator, Michelle—she is an absolute gem! From the very first consultation to post-op care, she has been so kind, supportive, and attentive. Together, Dr. Lee and Michelle make such a fantastic team, and I felt completely cared for every step of the way.
This experience has been life-changing, and I am beyond grateful!
Exceeded expectations
Dr Lee is a brilliant magician with a scalpel. He listened to what I was looking for and far beyond exceeded my expectations. I came to him with 15+ year old implants (done by a different surgeon) with my right breast implant removed 4 years ago due to an infection (also done by a different surgeon). I was looking for a breast implant exchange and lift. My body image when I came to Dr Lee made me sad and uncomfortable due to the huge difference in breast sizes and gravity working against me. When I came to Dr Lee, he listened to my concerns and helped me decide which implants and sizes were best for me. He explained everything in detail and made sure I left my consultation with no questions. On surgery day, he once again explained what to expect and made sure all my concerns were addressed. After the surgery I was beyond impressed with my results. Dr Lee made my breasts look natural and I had no pain. Both Dr Lee and his staff have been nothing but friendly and helpful. I will never go to anyone else for my surgery needs. He is the BEST!
Rejuvenated
After receiving Dysport treatment for my crow's feet and undergoing the Heavenly Peel, I experienced incredible results. Prior to these treatments, my skin and face appeared dull, but afterwards, I felt rejuvenated. The combination restored my natural complexion, diminishing acne marks and pigmentation. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Johnson Lee to anyone seeking a revitalizing experience.
No scar
Deeply impressed with Dr. Lee.
I had two prior consultations with dermatologists regarding a bump on my forehead. Neither one seemed to have a clue how to deal with it. They both stated that it would require surgery and leave a scar. Both stated that the scar would look worse than the bump.
Dr. Lee took a different path. He gave me an injection and within a week the entire bump was gone. Incredibly precise, because not only was the bump gone, but it didn't crater either. No surgery, no scaring. Fantastic job.
Further, his assistant was extremely polite and attentive. Overall, I wish I could give more than 5 stars.
Natural Botox
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dr. Lee for a Botox treatment, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience and results. From the moment I stepped into the clinic, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff was friendly and professional, making me feel comfortable throughout the entire process.
Dr. Lee took the time to understand my concerns and expectations, carefully explaining the procedure and what I could expect from the treatment. His attention to detail and willingness to answer all my questions reassured me that I was in good hands.
So reassuring
I had an incredibly positive experience with Dr. Lee. He dedicated ample time to me, ensuring I felt at ease about the procedure. He patiently navigated me through every step and answered all my questions making me feel more confident in my decision. I'm thrilled with the results!
True Artist
I am very happy I was referred to Dr. Lee by my close friend! I am a firm believer in choosing doctors that you like and feel comfortable with. Glad to say Dr. Lee was likable from the moment we met. He not only has a great personality but he is a true artist. He took his time with me, made sure to discuss all my concerns and made me feel safe. On top of that, he did an outstanding job! So natural, which is what I wanted. I highly recommend him if you want a doctor you can trust and who knows what he's doing. I'll back 1000%
Youthful glow
Dr. Lee is a true artist! He's my go to for preventative wrinkles with dysport and his famous HeavenLee peel. My skin and face continues to look so youthful and glowy thanks to him! He truly cares about your goals and takes his time going over everything in detail. Highly recommend him to everyone!
Attention to detail
I came to Dr. Johnson Lee for a scar revision. He was wonderful and paid extremely close attention to detail. I was looking to get rid of a 15 year old scar that has been bothering me. The results of the scar revision were beyond my expectations and I could not be happier. He made me feel comfortable and took the time to answer all my questions. Dr. Johnson is incredibly talented, professional, friendly, and I strongly recommend him.
Genius with scalpel
A few years ago I started going to Dr. Lee for regular actor maintenance things. Mainly Fillers & Botox. I knew he was great at that since he's so highly-recommended. Last year, though, I had Mohs surgery that left me with an irregular fold between my eyebrows and I was really unhappy with it. When I went to Dr.Lee recently for routine things I asked if there was anything he could do regarding "scar revision," and he suggested surgery, which I agreed to do. I just had my stitches out and I can already tell that his work was AMAZING. He left the area between my eyebrows looking better than it has ever looked. He was really humble about it when I told him how happy I was, so I wanted to make sure to spread the word that Dr. Lee is a genius with a scalpel and he will be the first place I go if I feel I may need any future tweaks.
Trusted Care
I had a really great experience with Dr Lee. He spent a lot of time with me and made me feel comfortable about the procedure. I was definitely hesitant to move forward at first, but Dr. Lee guided me through everything and made me feel confident that I was making the right decision. I am very happy with the outcome and now have a doctor that I trust.
Natural results
I recently had a procedure with Dr. Lee and couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final follow-up, Dr. Lee and the entire team were professional, attentive, and caring. Especial mention to Michelle that was always available when needed. The surgery went smoothly, and the results are natural and exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Dr. Lee for anyone seeking exceptional plastic surgery care.
Above and beyond
I could not be happier with the work Dr. Lee has done for me. From day one, he made me feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for. He’s not just skilled—he’s the best doctor in the city, and it shows in both his results and his compassion.
He listened to every concern, gave honest advice, and checked in on me after surgery to make sure I was healing well. That level of care is rare, and it meant so much to me.
His office is beautiful and welcoming, and his staff is incredibly kind. I’m truly grateful for Dr. Lee—he went above and beyond for me, and I feel so lucky to have been in his hands.
Exceptional care
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Dr. Lee and his entire team. From start to finish, they were incredibly friendly, supportive, and communicative. I always felt comfortable, informed, and genuinely cared for at every step.
My procedure was quite complex and not something that could be easily addressed, but Dr. Lee’s expertise truly made magic. The results are beyond anything I expected, and I’m so grateful for his skill, precision, and the confidence he brings to his work.
The whole team is warm, professional, and always available to answer questions. I never felt rushed, and they guided me through the entire process with so much patience and reassurance.
If you’re looking for a surgeon who combines exceptional talent with kindness and outstanding care, I couldn’t recommend Dr. Lee and his team more.
Highly recommend
I had a great experience here. The staff was very friendly, the place is very professional and hospitable but most importantly Dr. Lee was very informative and made the process fast and comfortable with great results! Highly recommend.

Patient and thorough
I went to Dr. Lee to get a pore of winer removed (it's an enlarged pore) that was sitting on my forehead. He was very patient with me and answered all my questions. Made sure I felt comfortable with the procedure before moving forward and talked me through it every step of the way. He checked in on me on the weekend and his office was quick to respond to any follow-up questions I had. I would recommend him if you are looking for a specific procedure and want someone who has patience and expertise.
Questions
Find answers to what matters most before your procedure
Many patients combine procedures to achieve a balanced result or streamline recovery. Whether it’s appropriate depends on your goals and overall health. Dr. Lee will recommend the safest plan for your needs.
Results are designed to be long-lasting, but they are influenced by factors like aging, skin quality, weight changes, and lifestyle. Dr. Lee will discuss what to expect long-term and how to maintain your outcome.
All surgeries involve incisions and scarring, but incisions are placed as discreetly as possible and are designed to heal well. We’ll review incision locations during consultation and provide scar-care guidance to support optimal healing.
Recovery varies by individual and the treatment plan. You can expect some swelling and bruising early on, with gradual improvement over time. Dr. Lee will provide a clear timeline for downtime, activity limits, and follow-up visits.
Candidacy depends on your health, anatomy, and goals. In general, good candidates are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and can follow pre- and post-op instructions. A consultation confirms whether breast revision is appropriate for you.
