Starting with my free phone consultation, I could tell that Dr. Agha was a good salesman. He convinced me of the merits of getting saline implants to correct my tuberous breasts, after I had been previously opposed to getting them. I then examined his before and after photos of tuberous breast patients like myself and decided that I would choose him as my surgeon. After buying two round-trip tickets to John Wayne airport for me and my husband and booking a room for 9 nights, we flew down for my first appointment. Dr. Agha examined my breasts, took notes and explained his rationale for different aspects of the surgery. The whole thing felt rather rushed and I soon realized he already had a plan in mind for my surgical outcome. When we had spoken on the phone, he told me that my breast augmentation surgery wouldn't have any real impact on my ability to nurse a child in the future, and that the only thing that would would impact my ability would be my own congenital limitations from my tuberous breasts. When I saw him in person however, he said that he would need to remove some mammary tissue from my right breast, which would have an impact on my ability to produce milk. Then, he looked at my tuberous breasts and said that I wouldn't be able to nurse with "those" anyway. I felt sad and a little betrayed, but he then explained that without removing the mammary tissue, I would still have herniation, but that it was up to me what I wanted him to do. Although his bedside manner left something to be desired, I figured that he knew what he was doing and I proceeded with the surgery, although I did not opt to have my nipples/areolae reduced as he also suggested. The wait time for my surgery itself was quite long, but it was because the staff ran late. My doctor was right on time and ready to work. Once everyone was ready, I was made to feel very comfortable and was wheeled in right away. It was estimated that my tuberous breast correction and augmentation with 400 cc saline implants under the muscle through the inframammary fold would take three hours, but it only took two. My husband picked me up and I got set to following all his recovery orders to the best of my ability. Dr. Agha did beautiful work. Although my surgery was only 9 days ago, I am already enjoying the new shape and size of my breasts. I'm sure that with time, they will become even more ideal for my body. His strikingly beautiful staff members were quite polite through the whole process, although not always easy to track down for details. I could see that once I arrived though, they have a very busy office with a lot of cool sculpting patients as well as patients like me. Overall, although I wish he'd spent more time with me in person and truthfully addressing my concerns, I am very pleased with my outcome. I don't know if I could expect a better result for my tuberous breasts and I would recommend him to others who want this problem fixed.
