I have 475 CC silicone, under muscle right now. I have had these for roughly 12 years. My left breast has fallen out of the pocket and is misshapen, and there is significant rippling on the right breast. My goal is to increase my size, be fuller up top for more cleavage, and would like them to sit up straight when I lay on my back. I have done research for about 4 months and have finally found a doctor who specializes in breast revision and extra large breast implants. He is in California so I emailed him pictures of my breast and pictures of what I want them to look like and asked if I'm a good candidate for overfilled saline implants. I was excited to find his reply right away with a detailed email stating that I was a good candidate and what he would need to do in order for me to get the results I wanted. His receptionist sent me an email with a detailed itemized estimate as to how much it would cost. She also sent me a list of hotels I could stay at that they work with to give travelers discounts on their stay. He even knocked $1000 to help me with my travel. So right away my first impression of him and his staff was spot on.
He is going to use internal sutures to create an internal bra for support along with alloderm for extra coverage of the implant since I have very thin skin tissue.
I fly to California and have my in person consultation May 23rd. I am scheduled for surgery May 24th. I am looking forward to meeting Dr.Pousti and his staff. Dr. Pousti has a 5 STAR rating from 1179 reviews. That itself says A LOT! I will post pics of my breasts now when it gets closer to my date. It seems so far away. But they say...."good things come to those who wait". I will let you know if "they" were right. lol

How exciting for you! I have heard great things about the internal bra from other revision members. Feel free to be the first to comment on the May 2016 breast implant revision forum. I will be sending more members there as I come across them. ;)

I flew in today and finally got to meet Dr. Pousti and his wonderful office staff. I can see why everyone rant and raves about how nice and caring both Dr. Pousti and office staff are. The visit wasn't just paperwork and a handshake. It was more like an educational meeting for both them and myself. They learned about me and I learned about them. I expressed what my breast revision goals were and Dr. Pousti listened, retained it, and then gave his input as to what he could do, would do, and what to expect. He truly has your best interest in mind. I was probably one of his last patients today, however, I never felt rushed or hurried by any of them. They really wanted to make sure I understood everything that was going to happen tomorrow and what I was going to go through as I heal. I'm really nervous about tomorrow, but in a good way. I guess you could say I'm more anxious than nervous. I have no doubt I chose the best doctor for my breast revision. I want to thank everyone who has written a review on Dr. Pousti, because if it wasn't for you guys, I wouldn't have found him.
This is how I would rank Dr. Pousti and his office team on a scale of 1-10.
Friendly 10+
Efficient 10+
Caring 10+
Patient 10+
Punctual 10+
Good listener 10+
Confident 10+
Understanding 10+
Bed side manner 10+
Welcoming 10+
Customer Service 10+
Humor 10+ (Not that humor is important, but it makes you feel comfortable and relaxed)
I will enclose some before pics tonight. I will keep you updated on my surgery and how I progress. :-)
