About 8 years ago, a top, well known plastic surgeon in my hometown turned me down for surgery because he really didn't know how to fix my condition-congenital symmastia. So, I went to Beverly Hills to have another doctor help me. He performed a surgery on my breasts, but the result was not good. So, I have to simply accept my condition. Eight years later, I STARTED TO SURF THE INTERNET ON my condition once again! I couldn't believe to have come across the amazing website of Dr. Tom Pousti of San Diego. Not just his website that impressed me, but all those testimonies of different patients, their photos, and their results as well. These clients mentioned about his awesome staff and even wrote such great reviews about the doctor himself. His credential stood us as well, but MOST ALL, for me personally, I saw in his website the fact that he knew how to help those with congenital symmastia. I saw photos of before and after of women who have gone to him and got them fixed!!!!! I have never seen a website like his, showing great results of those who have once had congenital symmastia along with other amazing results from other different procedures he has performed on so many patients. At the end of the day, I became Dr. Tom Pousti's patient. His quality as a surgeon and as an individual? Truly impressive and trustworthy. His staff makes me feel like they know me for years! Just go experience it for yourself! As for me, I am glad I did! And my surgery result is like a "miracle". THANK YOU for your expertise Dr. Tom POUSTI! Thank you too, to your fun, hard-working and dedicated staff!

We'd love a few more details about your actual procedure before we move your review into the community. Did you have implants prior to seeing Dr. P? What type and size implants did you get recently or perhaps you did not get implants at all? Also, how was your recovery? Hope you're still enjoying your results. Thank you for sharing with us on RealSelf!

Thank you for up a comment to my posting. I have the internal bra-yes. I am on "case of the week" on POUSTI's website under symmastia. All details w/ more photos are shown there pertaining to the 2nd phase of my surgery. Glad you are taking of your symmastia too. We want our beasts to look as natural as possible right?

Congenital Symmastia

This is my 1-year review. If you read the reviews about Dr. Tom Pousti and of course do your research about him and his skills/credentials, and you are thinking about getting surgery done on your breasts, you'll definitely would want him as your surgeon. That's exactly what happened to me. I already had a previous surgery about 8-9 years ago to fix the congenital symmstia with a surgeon in Beverly Hills, but it didn't do anything in time. One other doctor in another town, turned me down on the day of my surgery. So after those two attempts, I gave up on my situation and forced myself to live with the condition. Everything about DR. POUSTI drew my attention! He has a wonderful staff that will make you feel like you are at home-comfortable and relaxed! Vannessa, his beautiful, gorgeous and PROFESSIONAL staff, could immediately be your best friend! She and along with Cindy, will definitely have you walking out of there smiling and informed about your concerns, questions, etc, pertaining to your specific needs. The whole entire POUSTI team and the doctor are wonderful! You just have to go experience them yourself because knowing me, I can go on and on. Anyway, the first phase of my surgery to correct/improve the congenital symmsstia was a success-- from DR. POUSTi, his staff, and the staff of the surgery center

TO
the actual procedure itself, which you could inquire about it specifically from Dr. POUSTI. I am happy with the result considering how my breasts were before. The 2nd phase of the surgery to help improve this situation is really optional, which I am highly interested in going forward with. Of course, I will have to write another review after having gone through the 2nd phase of the surgery. Oh, and if you would like to see more photos of the before and after of different ones with congenital symmastia, go into his website and also look into the page-PATIENTS IN ACTIONS page.

I thank Dr. POUSTI for your genuine concern. We all have to work to make a living, but with you, I see far and beyond just that--you really CARE!!
