The patient was unhappy with the cosmetic results of her surgery and after waiting several years, the patient decided to try to find the best plastic surgeon for revisionary breast surgery have breast revision surgery once more.  The patient researched for the most experienced Board Certified Plastic and Reconstructive surgeon and found Dr. Pousti on the Internet.  After numerous contacts via e-mail and phone conversations with Dr. Pousti, the patient decided to fly into San Diego, California to meet Dr. Pousti in person. The patient was able to speak and meet with current patients of Dr. Pousti, who had revisionary surgery so that the patient could feel comfortable with her choice of surgeons.   The patient decided to proceed with surgery, the pre-op was done the same day and the patient flew back in to San Diego  3-weeks later to have her breast augmentation revision performed.

In order to achieve her desired look, previous breast implants were removed, capsulorrhaphy of both breasts and internal suturing of the pockets was performed and  500cc silicone-gel moderate plus profile breast implants were used.

PATIENT TESTIMONIAL:

I had previous revision surgery with a different Doctor and, still, I was unsatisfied. I had done online research for months until I finally found and decided to see Dr. Pousti.

I loved his before and after photos of his patients who has suffered from similar breast complications, and that was what sealed the deal for me, along with instant great rapport with both Dr. Pousti and his staff1

I highly recommend Dr. Pousti for difficult case involving unsatisfactory breast augmentation with previous Doctors.
