29 Year Old, Mom of One, with the Body of my Dreams Thanks to Dr. Pousti! - La Mesa, CA

countless internet searches led me to finally trust my instinct and make a consultation with Dr. Pousti, of Pousti Plastic Surgery in the San Diego area of California. I was motivated to make the call due to his expansive knowledge in Breast Augmentation, XL Breast Augmentation and countless Breast Augmentation Revisions. I liked the look of his work, how much obtainable information there was on the surgeon, and how informative his website was. I made the call to what I had a feeling was going to be my ONLY consultation. Dr. Pousti has an amazing staff and the Doctor himself is a man of miracles! I have my dream body and I couldn't have done it without entrusting myself to him! This man will give you the body of your dreams! I can't recommend him enough!

currently three whole weeks post op and almost to that 1 month mark! Not having help during my husbands work schedule has proven to be a challenge with a 17 month old, but i've made due! Now current concerns are asymmetry, which was present prior to BA. I feel like it may be more noticeable now but I trust my surgeon and trust that he saw an outcome that I have yet to see! I've been trying on tops and swimsuits every now and then but still scared to keep my surgical bra off too long! I have intense muscle spasms and have been doing massage. I can tell that each breast is healing at different times and i'm learning to be patient. Also experiencing SLIGHT boob greed… 590cc is pretty large… however I may some day decide to go even bigger. You can bet your tater tots I will be back to Dr. Pousti! Him and his staff have continued to be wonderful regarding all of my questions and concerns and still feel I've gotten the best care! I love my body! Aside from some muscle spasms and little twinges here and there I'm feeling really good! Still take it easy whenever I can! I feel sexy and confident… even in a plain t shirt!

I wish I was more consistent with updates, I just don't have time! Plus I worry about every thing. Every little pinch, pull, muscle spasm, I immediately assume my implants will rupture and I'll die. Extremes. My apologies for offensiveness. I just picture the worst thing happening. Turns out... so far it's all been relatively normal. Go figure haha!
So as the title states I am nearly 8 whole weeks post op. I've noticed HUGE changes in my breasts since the first day, week, or even month being post op. I don't necessarily have boob greed, but in some tops I wish they were more pronounced. But then I find myself often wondering if I'm showing too much cleavage while toting a one year old around. My husbands response- "Absolutely not!". I'm just not used to having cleavage! Other times they feel big and perfect. I wanted BIG! I got BIG!
I still have some swelling from time to time. I need to up the massage again I feel (again need more hours in the day). I still have some muscle spasms which can pull my implants towards my armpits. When that happens I usually massage and try to relax, and I'll wear my surgical bra with the compression band over the top to bring them in together. Even though I was cleared to "burn my bra" I still feel it comes in handy. I sleep in it still and sometimes after wearing a regular sports bra all day I feel pretty sore and the surgical bra relieves some of that. It could all just be in my head. Either way, I'm not ready to part ways with this hideous contraption just yet.
I still have the steri strips covering my incisions. Talk about some great adhesive. I can't wait for another appointment to see what Dr. Pousti thinks about how my incisions are healing. I'm allergic to the adhesive on band aids and have some pretty bad rashes forming where the band aids are placed during showers. That has nothing to do with my implants themselves though! I've seen through a pin hole size opening what appears to still be scabs on my incision line so i'm in no hurry to rip them off. I want them to breathe but I also don't want to rush them if they are not ready! He will know best!
other than that and getting used to some looks I get.. people are actually staring at my rack.. (It's ok to stare.. that's why I got a boob job!) I am doing amazing! I have noticed that as they reach final position they are looking larger than they did even with the swelling! I still have some slight assymetry but that was present prior to surgery and I'm now in a more accepting place than my worrisome self was in the earlier weeks. I expect to love and love them not as much off and on through the next few weeks. I've never disliked them or thought they weren't big enough. I also haven't thought they were too big. I'm still a thousand percent confident in my choice of surgeon! Loving my new found confidence and reason to shop!
I was measured at Victoria's Secret to be a 32DDD or a 32F at other stores... we've come a long way from that A/B cup! Not many of my 100 swimsuit tops fit anymore and certainly no bras! Oh darn.. A reason to shop ;)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE my big fake boobies! Picture overload... hashtag sorrynotsorry lol
