Dr. Soto is a fantastic cosmetic surgeon, with a wonderful staff. For me, the great thing about Dr. Soto is how candid he is. I am always more drawn to people who tells it like it is..he does not sugar coat anything, which i think makes your expectations more realistic. Dr. Soto was always very honest and his primary concern is always the health and safety of the patient. He listens attentively and makes sure to address all questions and concerns and assures you that you can call him if you have any additional questions after leaving his office. He has the ability to put you at ease as soon as he enters the room, and is so easy to talk to. I would be remiss, if I did not mention Keely (Patient Coordinator) and Caley (Nurse) . They are phenomenal and will make you feel like you are the only patient in the world when you meet with them. I never felt rushed and it has been a great experience so far. I am now 15 days post op and when I look at my results, I cannot believe the woman that now stares back at me. I am still swollen, but If I love my results now I can only imagine what I will look like in 6 months! If you are thinking about any cosmetic procedure and you are considering Dr. Soto....Do it! You won't be sorry!

LOOKIN GOOD:-)!!!
Thanks!
You look AMAZING! I am scheduled with Dr. Soto for November 13th. Trying to lose about 15 more pounds before surgery. Since I'm having a breast lift and tummy tuck, he's requiring me to stay overnight at the facility with a nurse for proper care. Did you stay also?

2 months and Oh so worth it!

I've had a few requests for an update, so here goes... Bra size is officially a 34D in bras such as Calvin Klein and 34DD at Victoria secret. At first I was dissappointed with my breasts when I stood naked, because after surgery, once they settled seemed smaller...but honestly, once they are in the bra and in clothes...they are perfect, i definitely would not want them any bigger...I think I was temporarily suffering from a little boob greed :) Dr. Soto did a fantastic job choosing a size for my frame, because I probably would have gone bigger and would have wound up being unhappy. As for the tuck...I still suffer from a swollen tummy after any activity. I also have pin like prickles every now and again, which I understand is quite normal at this time as the nerves start to "wake up". All in all I feel great and look even better! Doc says my scars are looking good and I am using a scar recovery gel twice a day. My confidence level on scale of 1-100 body image wise went from 10 to 150!

If I had a choice, would I do it again? A million times yes! The mild discomfort that I have experienced so far is nothing compared to how good I feel about myself right now!

Fierce is right!!! You look awesome!!! Congrats:-)
Thank you so much!
Thanks so much!
Congratulations, girl, you look fabulous!!!! It's so strange about the boobs, right? I too am having thoughts of should've gone bigger but boy my boobs look awesome as they are. The flatness just takes a little longer for some of us but we'll get there for sure. Totally worth the sx. Enjoy your new sexiness, I know I am. Keep healing well :)))
