Couldn’t Be Happier!

WORTH IT
Growing up, I've always been self-conscious about my small breasts. I was a 32A and had a normal somewhat athletic frame - 5' 5" and 125lbs. Overall, I felt my lower half of my body was disproportionate to the top half of my body and knew I wanted to eventually get a breast augmentation in my mid-twenties if I had the means to do so. Once I felt ready, I did some research and had various consultations, however, I almost knew immediately after my consultation with Dr. Pousti that I wanted to proceed with him and his staff. They made me feel really comfortable about the whole process, putting all my worries at ease, and I felt confident they were going to give me the look I was going for (natural, teardrop, nothing too big, around a C cup, etc.). We went through a couple mood boards to pinpoint the look I wanted (you had the option to bring your own as well, but I was able to point out what I want with the boards they already had). About a month out from the operation day, I had one last pre-op meeting to go over the financials, size, type, etc. I've never felt pressured, and they made me feel comfortable with any decision I made. Days leading up to the big day, Dr. Pousti and his staff checked in on me to go over the procedure and made sure they answered any lingering questions I had remaining.

On surgery day, I had an incredible staff that prepped me, and I never once felt nervous. Dr. Pousti marked me up as we went over what I wanted one last time before I went into the operating room. (Note: We did not choose exact CCs at this point. I trusted Dr. Pousti to choose the sizes he thinks best would give the look/size we discussed once I was on the operating table. We settled on a size range and I told him what size I did not want to surpass). I've never felt so sure and confident about a decision. The operation only took about an hour, and I was greeted by another set of great nurses when I woke up. The result: 275cc on my left breast and 250cc on my right. *My right breast was bigger than my left.

During the recovery process, Dr. Pousti and his staff checked in once a day for the next three or so days, and every couple days for the next two weeks to make sure everything was healing correctly and there were no issues/discomfort. Overall pain was 4/10, with the max 6/10 at one point. Overall, I truly felt cared for by Dr. Pousti and his staff, and they were always available/within reach when/if I ever had a question. It has been about 3 months since my operation now, and I've had able 3-4 check up appointments. I love my new breasts and can say I feel so much more confident. They have not fully dropped yet, so I cannot wait to see the final look.

Thank you so so so much Dr. Pousti and staff for making this process a breeze, I am so happy with my decision to go with you and I am in love with my new look!
