Revisionary Breast Surgery – Deflation – Bottoming Out

Before I begin to write the story of my boob job nightmare , I want to tell you that you have come to the right place Words cannot possibly express how grateful and thankful I am for Dr. Pousti. He came highly recommended from the Allergan representive himself who deals with hundreds of surgeons monthly. I saw 7 different surgeons before Dr. Pousti, none of whom I felt knew how to fix symmastia. I had 7 different opinions on what needed to be done I decided to wait until I found the right Doctor. I had my first breast augmentation in 2003 with saline implants after nursing my son for a year. They were terrible. Way to small, bottomed out, and severely rippled all the way around. I could not even wear a v-neck t-shirt. I had my second surgery in 2004 with larger saline implants. I immediately noticed the skin over my sternum was raised and that the implants were low. I went to see the Doctor many times and he said this was because I am thin, and this is normal. I did my research and found out I had symmastia. The worst news about this is you can not enjoy your breasts in a bathing suit, sexy bra, low cut shirt, NOTHING It's a terrible thing to experience, and can be pretty emotionally debilitating .I had another baby and nursed him for 15 months. About 2 months into nursing him my right breast started deflating. About 8 months later my left breast started deflating. I had gone to see Dr. Pousti right when I noticed the Right breast leaking and knew immediately that when the time came I would have him do the repair. He told me at our first meeting that I would have to be finished breastfeeding for 3 months before I could have surgery. I began to have pain when the deflated implant would travel across my mid-line, and into my armpit area. I went to see Dr. Pousti and he was very sweet, and confident. A few weeks later, I had the surgery and trusted 100 in Dr. Pousti's expertise. The nurse and anesthesiologist both told me he is the best surgeon they have ever dealt with, and I was in great hands. That says a lot since they work in a surgery clinic The healing process takes discipline and patience. But is worth it I am 11 weeks out of surgery today, and my breasts are BEAUTIFUL Too bad no one gets to see them naked except my husband, and Dr. Pousti I am sooooooooo excited to be able to wear normal bathing suits, and any outfit I want without having to constantly be checking my chest. I know this is a long story, but seriously if you are scared, and have doubts about getting revisionary surgery done, I understand Dr. Pousti is trustworthy, gentle, knowledgeable, and most important COMPETENT to perform the revision Thank you Dr. Pousti, and staff You will forever be special to me. You probably don't even know how much I appreciate what you have done for me These are the breasts I always wanted _____________________________________ Updated Testimonial - 2011 I am extremely grateful to Dr. Pousti for not only repairing my mutilated chest, but for staying with my recovery for the past 2 years. I had symmastia for 4 years, and then had one implant completely deflate before I came to be repaired. Having your body be disfigured in any way is emotionally traumatizing daily. Since having my revision surgery I have been careful to do everything as Dr. Pousti has recommended. I am very happy with my results, and have symmetrical beautiful boobs now In clothes I do not look like I have fake boobs which is nice. Also, I just went to Nordstroms to buy new bras and the woman assisting me commented AT LEAST 10 times that she thinks I have the best set of implants she has seen. She told me she sees messed up implants everyday, and even the good sets are no where near as symmetrical and natural looking as mine. It feels so good to hear after what i have been through. All I have to say is I highly recommend Dr. Pousti if you are looking for experience, expertise, caring and a great result. He cares to do it right
