Internal Bra® MAGAZINE
Don Revis, MD, FACS
The Internal Bra® Magazine is a patient-driven digital publication created to give real people a place to share their stories—in their own words—about confidence, wellness, and modern breast augmentation. This is where the story behind the decision lives. Every feature you read here is someone choosing to speak openly about a deeply personal chapter of their life—what led them here, how the experience has shaped them, and what they’re stepping into next. These stories matter because they create space for honesty, understanding, and connection in a conversation that’s often kept quiet. If this story resonated with you, one of the most meaningful ways to support the person who shared it is to share this article with your friends, family, or social network. When these stories travel, they help normalize real conversations around body autonomy, confidence, and personal choice. Thanks for reading—and for helping these stories reach the people who might need to hear them.

Featured Article Interview
Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to talk with us. Before we jump into the details, can you share a little about your background and the experiences that have shaped who you are today?
First and foremost, I want to thank everyone who has supported me throughout this process. I searched for 5 years + to find the best Dr and right team to provide the best care
It it never an easy decision to alter your body and a lot of critical feedback but all results were for me.
Looking back, what were some of the thoughts, feelings, or experiences that helped you feel ready to move forward with surgery? How has that choice shown up in your day-to-day life since?
I was obviously scared and optimistic that I would see the results that I invisioned. It took a long time and lots of research selecting the right Dr. In any medical procedure things go wrong but my confidence was high after meeting with the team. The care was top notch every step of the way.
You’ve shared some powerful reflections already—can you go a little deeper into what has felt most transformative for you on a personal level through this journey?
I personally feel better about myself (most important) but the confindence in my personal life and professional life has been rewarding not only emotionally but financially.
My friends and family do not look at me differently but the world can see the beauty in my body. Prior to my augmentation I was also overweight, but since has been motivation to look and feel my best.
Since going through this experience, what changes have you noticed in how you treat your body or how you think about your own wellbeing?
I have since moved from Canada to Belize. I need more chemical free feeds, sun all year and a better overwhell lifestyle. I would have neber choose this if I continued in my "funk".

If you could share one honest truth about this journey that you wish more people talked about, what would that be?
Honest journey!! Coming off of the sedatition was real haha..my partner and Dr Revis' staff had to deal with me wanting steak asap when I woke up! I did not get steak..but lots of bed and comfort was in order! Hehe
What has it been like to navigate this experience within your personal relationships, and how have the people closest to you shown up for you?
If people truly love you they will show up for you, always. This experience has shown me that everyone is not in your corner but those who are, deserve a stand ovation including husband who supported me every step of the way.
He was there throughout my consultation, surgery and the nine bags of luggage in the airport flying internationally.
When you think about the next few years of your life, how do you see yourself continuing to grow personally as a result of this journey?
I'm considering a career change to work in the adult in the industry.
Well, it has been great sitting and talking with you today. Before we wrap up, are there any pro tips you’d offer to others considering a similar journey, a few myths you’d love to clear up, and how can people follow along with or support your journey?
Just be open and honest with yourself. Remember if you want 900cc's you probably want 1800cc's
