Just over a year and a half ago I had my breast augmentation done by a surgeon I was referred to by a friend in Orange County. I went to my consultation, he seemed very professional. My experience was absolutely terrible. Not only were the results not what I had expected, but there were also complications. The entire experience was terrible, the situation not only took a toll on how I felt physically- I was more self-conscious after the procedure then I was before. My surgeon was dishonest with me, and disregarded my concerns about the outcome- even months later when the issue was very apparent. A very close friend of mine urged me to see Dr. Pousti for a second opinion, and assured me he would be thorough and honest.

Today was my one month post-op check up with Dr. Pousti. We took the tape off of the middle section of my chest. I cannot remember the last time I felt so relieved and flat out excited. Seeing the results and what an amazing job Dr. Pousti did was incredible. My right breast still has some settling to do, but the results at just one month out are mind blowing.
A week or so prior to todays appointment - I was talking to a close friend of mine who actually works in Dr. Pousti's office- (Katie) I was explaining to her my whole experience- I began to get emotional- she was immediately concerned- understandably as she was by my side through my original B/A surgery. I continued to explain to her that I was emotional not because I was sad, scared or disappointed like I was originally, but 100% because I had no idea I could be treated so well by a Dr. and their staff. After my original surgery I felt violated, and scared. This time around I felt comfortable and confident from the moment I walked into surgery. I told her that my experience with Dr. Pousti was life changing for me, he renewed my confidence in a surgeon and reminded me that there are professionals out there in the plastic surgery field that really do care about their patients. I cannot write enough, or talk enough about how much I would recommend Dr. Pousti- he is absolutely amazing, and I am so appreciative every day when I wake up and see the beautiful results.
