Hello everybody! I finally had the courage to get my breast augmentation done three years ago, and it was absolutely amazing! I did quite a bit of research and met with several plastic surgeons. Some were very pushy and others were just very unwilling to go with the size I wanted. I’ve been pondering implants for seven years before I actually went forward with the procedure. Let me say that I am glad I did. I found Dr. Pousti’s practice and made my consult and it was like none of the others the staff was amazing very comforting, understanding and knowledgeable about the procedure. One staff member stood out to me she was very comforting and went that extra mile and allowed me to ask anything and everything and had all the answers. Dr. Pousti was very kind and a great confidence booster! I suffer from self-esteem issues but walking into that office changed everything. I feel like the person I want to be I love my implants! They are perfect! I was not sure of the size or type but Dr. Pousti knew exactly what I was going for. Here I am three years later and loving my body more than ever! They are a great size and feel natural. No one even notices that they are implants unless I tell them and they are absolutely floored when I tell them they cannot believe they are not real. I love it! I have had friends and family who have noticed my confidence skyrocket! I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Dr. Pousti and his staff. On the day I had my surgery Dr. Pousti went the extra mile and gave me a beautiful flower basket. Every time I go for my follow-ups he tells me that I am beautiful this may seem a little bit cheesy but it makes me feel amazing. Every woman should be told she’s beautiful and feel beautiful. Every small detail about his practice is nothing less than perfect! I recommend Dr. Pousti’s practice to anyone who is thinking of going forward with the procedure. All of my ideas were taken into consideration and I actually had a say so in my procedure. That in itself was a wonderful experience to be heard and respected. Dr. Pousti is amazing. My life has changed since my procedure! The extra drive was absolutely worth it. Corona, CA

Hi, my name is Giovanna. I am originally from San Diego and now reside in Temecula with my wonderful husband & adorable, loving twin boys. I had researched a handful of plastic surgeons and googled them as well. When I came across Dr. Pousti’s website, I took the time to read all the pages and saw pictures etc. I decided to make a call to the office to inquire about my situation. From the moment I spoke to someone to the end of my journey with Dr. Pousti, the experience was easy & stress-free. I had twin boys on April 14, 2008, pregnancy went well up until the birth of my children. Unfortunately, I had a horrible labor experience, which left one of my twins disabled & I was sick for about 1 year. We are thankfully here today, but went through alot. After doctors performed surgery, I began the healing process after a hysterectomy, & bowel obstruction. My stomache was basically band-aided back together. I had a huge noticeable scar from my belly button down to my bikini line. I also looked like I was still pregnant. I also developed a hernia in my belly button which protruded out significantly. I did not feel comfortable in my own skin. I went and consulted with Dr. Pousti who reassured me that he could repair my stomache & remove scar & fix hernia. I was nervous & surprised that a Dr. can fix my huge problem but he made me feel so comfortable. My husband was with me and he too, loved Dr. Pousti from our initial consultation. I made my apt for an abdominoplasty, and while I was under, decided to add silicone implants because I wanted to feel proportioned after my abdominoplasty. From surgery, after, follow-up etc. I feel 100 percent better about myself. My amazing stomache looks fabulous, my boobs look great and no more ugly scar. The healing process is different for everyone, for me, it took 6-8weeks but I handled it well for the most part. Dr. Pousti & his whole staff are with you everyday, calling to make sure you are okay. I never once felt alone before or after surgery. Today will be about 8 months since my surgery and I just saw Dr, Pousti & staff for a follow-up and it went great again. He will see me again in 4 months to check in with me but I feel like we are all friends & would definitely go back to him for any more plastic surgery issues I may have in the near future. Thank you to Dr. Pousti for changing my image, making me feel better about myself once again. You truly are a wonderful, caring, sincere, & most importantly, honest doctor.

I am a 27-year-old mother of 2. I originally came to Dr. Pousti in 2006, interested in more information regarding breast augmentation. He was so nice and helpful, answered every question my husband and i asked. At that time, our youngest was 1. So, I decided to wait a few years until he was older, so the recovery time post surgery would be easier on me and my children. So, now being 5 years later, I still wanted breast augmentation. I talked to a couple people, but remembered my wonderful experience with Dr. Pousti and nobody else even compared to Dr. Pousti. I made a second consultation and met with Dr. Pousti, he again answered all my questions and I just knew that day I was finally going to go through with the procedure. We booked my surgery that day. I was so excited! between that day and my surgery date, I had called the office a few times, nervous and anxious and full of more questions, that they happily answered for me. Made me feel so happy,  knew I picked the right doctor! The day of my surgery, I was so excited. The surgery center is nice and the nurses and anesthesiologist were just as great as Dr. Pousti! I am 2 and a half weeks post op and I could not be happier with the results, he did everything i asked, he considered my petite frame knew what I wanted as well as what I did not want. He did great! I love my breast size, shape, fullness and look! He is so awesome, he gave me exactly what I wanted. Dr. Pousti is top notch, he is wonderful and so are all the great people he has working in his office! This was the best experience and I’m so glad I chose Dr. Pousti! Thank you, your patient for life–Elyse L.

This 39-year old patient from Temecula, California was interested in a mommy makeover procedure which usually includes the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), breast lift, and breast augmentation. After having children the patient was unhappy with her post-baby body. After being referred by a friend she decided to come meet with Dr. Pousti to go over her goals.

Before the actual mastopexy is performed a ‘tailor-tack technique’  is used. During the tailor-tack the patient is placed in an upright position and her breast is shaped to see what the results may look like prior to any incisions are made. This technique helps prevent any nipple/arealo complex misplacement.

After the breast lift is performed sizers are set in place to determine the size of implant need to give the patient her desired look. In this patient’s case Dr. Pousti used 380cc saline-filled breast implants in both breasts.

The patient is extremely happy with the results of her mommy makeover!
