I'm sending this review because I would like to express how very grateful I am to have found such a wonderful and talented plastic surgeon. I am now 2 months post-op so I recently had breast augmentation performed on myself, and I am overjoyed with emotion and happiness. I have wanted this done since I was 19 years old and I am now 32 and it has become a reality for me.

I absolutely love my new breasts. Every few weeks that go by I notice a change. My breast are dropping into place and becoming more and more beautiful to me everyday. I have always been a confident woman but having this surgery has giving me the type of confidence that will change the way that I feel about myself as a woman for the rest of my life.

I am truly happy and I thank my doctor very much. My doctor and his staff always made me feel like I was a part of their little family. I never once felt pressured to hurry up and schedule my surgery. From pre-op to post-op I felt completely comfortable and knew I was in good hands. I went on several consultations and I can truely say when I walked out of his office, I knew he would be my doctor. I know a few people that have had work done by him and have amazing results. I am now one of those women. My breast look awesome and natural. I would recommend my doctor to anyone, any day!

Great review?

Im curious at any point was one dropping faster than the other.
WOW. they are perfect!!! praying for good results for myself in july!!! you look amazing!!! :D
Thanks and good.
Good Luck
Fabulous result! Very happy for you :)
Thanks!
I hear good and bad about both but really want silicone. I just don't want to rush into anything and I read a lot on here. I try to avoid negative things so it won't deter me from getting them done.
Yes you have to be comfortable at the end of the day.
Did you get saline implants and if so, how do you like them? I was told that saline would be good to correct how one side is somewhat larger than te other but not sure about them. Don't want the sloshing and heard they lose saline over time
I have saline and I love them. I don't hear sloshing or even feel as if they are there. I have to really play around with my breast for me to feel the bag. I have friends (were not done by Pousti) who can feel their bags or see them off to the side but I believe it's partly due to the fact that they did not go big enough to fill up the entire space. Overall I like the Saline
Also I naturally had 1 side smaller than the the other so yes the saline can fix that.
Did you go submuscular? Or above the muscle? Where was your incision? Do they feel natural?
Under the muscle. Incision was on the arreola line. Yes they feel natural.... maybe because i am so used to them lol although every now and then I feel areas of numbness. One thing is for sure folks are shocked when I tell them I have implants.
I have a question. I'm at day 5 after BA and my breasts are not shaped how I want. They almost have a cone look. Did your breasts take awhile to round out or is that just your natural shape? By the way they look great.
Thanks. Mine had that shape the whole time. Your natural shape does play a role, but I will say I had a friend that had the cone shape your describing and it went away. Be patient and follow all your post-op directions from your doctor, and remember it can be 3-6 months before you have your permanent look of your BA. Good luck!
omg they look amazing!!!! i love also love how they look with your white tank. how many cc did you get and what size were you before?
I'm 455cc and 475cc I believe. I was a small A cup
would love and update! your picture in the white tank is just what I want, I will be showing my doc that pic! A full c small D is what I want and thats what you posted in a while, is it still the same?
Yes I'm still a full C small D. Only difference now is that they are not as high up since they settled which is normal.
Thats how I want shirts to look on me!
Wow. What a great natural look! I'm going for 450 cc HP & under! What profile did you get?
I think high profile...misplaced my card.
Your boobs look amazing! Im in Riverside and totally would have gone to pousti had I joined this site and looked around sooner. All his work looks amazing! U look great!!
Thanks!
Beautiful!!
