Hello all!
I have decided to document my journey to help others contemplating a breast augmentation since this website has helped me so much!
I am 25 years old, no kids. 5'4 and 130lbs. My current bra size is 32-34B.
I have decided to have my surgery performed by Dr. Pousti and I know I will not regret my decision. I have to say, Dr.Pousti is awesome! Great bedside manner, funny, attentive and caring. Not to mention, he has over 20 years of experience, double board certified and the majority of his surgeries performed are breast augmentations, so I know I am in good hands.
No going to lie, I was so dang nervous starting this journey and going in for my first consultation, but Dr. Pousti and his nurses made me feel sooo relaxed and comfortable. The consultation costs $100 and is used towards your surgery, and I got to see my breast enlarged via computer image in his breast sculptor machine.. Super cool!
I am going for silicone mod + implants, under the muscle through a periareolar incision.
Not completely sure on a certain size but aiming for 375-425cc. I want to be around a full C, small D.
Dr. Pousti uses sizers on the operating table to compare to your wish pictures before putting a real implant in which I think is definitely a plus.
I had my Pre-op today and I'm super excited for my surgery and can't wait to post pictures of my new additions!
25 more days to go!

Good luck! Glad you are feeling so good about it. It's exciting and scary at the same time. :)

Day of treatment
It happened!

I did it! My new boobs are here.
Surgery was a breeze and I am feeling actually pretty good. No pain or naseousness, just some tightness. It feels like I just did a super knarly chest workout lol.
Surgery was scheduled for 10:15am, got in at 8:15 to sign paper work, Got my IV in and Dr made his markings. The worst part was probably getting my IV in since I had to be poked three time because my veins kept rolling.
I can't thank Dr Pousti enough! Him and his whole team made me feel super relaxed, and he even held my hand as I was getting put under. Next thing I knew I was in the recovery room.
I got 375cc in my right and 400cc in my left. Not sure on profile, so I will find out at my post op appointment. Dr. Pousti does not want the surgical bra removed until the post op appt, so I'm super eager to see what they look like!

First post op appt

Had my first post op appointment today! I was surprised to be presented with a beautiful bouquet of flowers from Dr.Pousti, says a lot about how much of a wonderful Dr he is.
Everything is healing really well but I still have to keep the surgical bra in place until my next appt on Monday when I will start massaging.
Recovery so far has still been a breeze, not much pain on day 3 so I've been tapering the pain Meds down. I've just have been feeling really tight with lots of pressure from the compression bra. I was able to snap a picture of one of the pictures Dr Pousti took on the surgical table right after placing the implants. I can't wait to see what they look like! 1 more week, trying to resist the urge to peek! Lol

They look great! Did you ask him to take a picture or did they do it themselves? I'm anxious to see mine too!

Thank you! I'm lovin them, he did a great job with picking the size. They do it themselves, so I was shown it at my first post op appt 3 days later! Make sure you get to see yours too :) how many cc's did you end up getting?
I too am 25, 5'4, and 130 lbs but i am an A cup so your operation is super revelent to me! I am super excited for you :)
