AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Post-Pregnancy Procedures
••
Pregnancy and childbirth can result in drastic changes to the body, which cannot be fixed with a strict diet or a rigorous workout regimen. With a procedure called the mommy makeover, however, we can bring back the body you once had—and even improve upon it. This fully customized treatment incorporates various surgeries—tummy tucks, liposuction, breast augmentation, breast lifts—intended to address the physical changes that occur in the breasts and stomach. Moms who complain about deflated breasts can opt for an augmentation; those with sagging may benefit from a lift. These two surgeries can also be combined.
A tummy tuck can tighten abdominal skin and repair the muscles when diastasis recti, or ab muscle separation, occurs. Liposuction can be incorporated to tackle pockets of resistant fat. Once we assess your goals, needs, and concerns, we can create the best mommy makeover plan for you.

Breast Surgery
••
Many patients in the Destin, Florida area opt for breast enhancement surgery to improve or restore the appearance of their breasts. At my practice, I use imaging technology that allows the patient to visualize how their breasts will look following surgery.
There are various surgical options to choose from: if you’ve always wanted ample, shapely breasts, or if you’ve had a baby and experienced volume loss, you might consider a breast augmentation. My “no scar” technique results in natural-looking breasts and minimal downtime.
A breast lift brings perkiness back to drooping breasts by eliminating excess skin. This is also a wonderful procedure for new mothers as well as patients who’ve experienced drastic breast changes due to aging or weight loss. Breast reduction surgery can help patients dealing with the physical and emotional discomfort caused by large breasts—and can also be performed on men, who are self-conscious about their enlarged breasts.

Hip & Butt Enhancement
••
Over the years, butt enhancement surgery has become extremely popular among my Florida patients as a way to get the sexy, feminine curves and shapely buttocks of their dreams.
In the past, gluteal implants were typically used to augment the buttocks. Today, fat transfer via a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is a more popular path to achieving a curvy, hourglass look. The BBL involves taking excess fat from areas such as the tummy, waist, hips, and thighs via liposuction and safely transferring it to the buttocks. During a BBL, I use a special fat-grafting system that processes the tissue quickly, resulting in better and more effective results than previous methods could offer.

I got liposuction of the back (Upper lower and flanks) with dr. Burden.
Pro: it was close to my residence. He seems to care and is honest about possible outcome
Con: i feel like this office is more geared toward a certain demographic.
Before and during my procedure I felt uneasy. About outcome and care. The office is full of blonde hair , blue eye, size 1 beautiful women. Not seeing someone who looked like me behind the desk or even in the photo gallery of work can truly make

Response from Dr. William R. Burden, MD, FACSThank you for sharing your experience. We will continue to follow your No Scar on the Breast recovery!
Dr Burden did a 50 year makeover for me. From the moment I walked in his office I felt welcome. He was so down to earth and spent time going over everything I wanted. He performed 2 procedures, full trunk liposuction and 8 weeks later an implant exchange and scar revision. I cried when I looked in the mirror after it was complete. They were tears of joy!! I am so happy with everything he did and actually feel sexy naked again! Not only is he wonderful but his staff is equally

After a significant weight loss I had been on the fence with having a tummy tuck for years. I finally found the courage to schedule a consultation and as soon as I entered Dr. Burdens office I was put right at ease. His Nurse Joan was amazing and full of knowledge and as soon as I met Dr. Burden I knew he was the surgeon for me. He was kind and never pushy. His bedside manner was five star and I'm so happy with my results. He did an amazing job and I finally have my confidence

I was continually impressed by their professionalism, expediency and willingness to work with my individual needs/concerns. Absolutely recommend Dr. Burden and Destin Plastic Surgery.
On March I went for breast revision surgery as implants were hard and a doctor recommended having them replaced. Dr. Burden knew exactly what would best and they are so beautiful . Destin Plastic Surgery is the best!
The staff took excellent care of me. All my questions were answered. The facility is clean and welcoming, on surgery day the flow was smooth. I felt safe and cared for. I work in the medical field so my standards are higher than most and this facility is top of the line. I am most pleased with the exceptional work of Dr Burden!
