Dear Dr. Pousti,

I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for the amazing work you did for my breasts. The results are dramatically better than before.

When I first met you and your staff, I knew it had to be you to perform my surgery. I could tell that with your honesty with me in going over how extensive it was going to be and that it would be a challenge, your being double board certified, your knowledge and experience of the techniques that were needed for my surgery, and listening to and understanding of my concerns, as well as time you spent with me answering my questions and explaining the procedure you would do, you had to be the one to perform this. To fix me, really. Also to know of and see the pictures of girls that you performed this type of surgery on before, and their incredible results, just sealed the deal for me.

When my sister told me that her and two of our friends were considering getting a breast augmentation. I told them they just had to meet you. I actually said “ If he can fix my boobs with how bad they are right now, imagine how amazing yours will look with it being your first surgery!” After meeting you and your staff, and learning of your certifications, they felt the same way too. So all four of us ended up going to the pre-op consultations together!
Having our surgeries split between two days was so nice; to experience it all together and see the results together.

I was so scared to go through surgery again, since my first one with that doctor in Mexico was really bad. Terrified actually. But you reassured me that you’ve done this before, and explained all of the things you were going to do, how my healing time (post-op) would be, etc. Your confidence in the surgery and results of it, and patience and consideration of my feelings really reassured me that I was going to be okay. My husband helped also by reminding me of what you’ve said any time my worries came back again. The surgery center was so wonderful. Michelle, my nurse, was so sweet. I felt like I was on my way to get a facial and massage the way she was so caring and trying to help me relax, not surgery! I have never been to a physician’s office or surgery center before, and felt so… taken care of. Like I was the top priority, as if you had only my surgery to perform—when in reality I know that you have many patients and surgeries. I just loved, and still do!, the quality of time and attention you’ve given to me and my friends.

All your “ Gray hairs and sleepless nights” I caused you paid off, Dr. Pousti. My ‘girls’ are amazing now. The results are so beautiful; my husband definitely thinks so too. With the way they looked before, when you had me bring in photos of breasts I liked ( size, shape, cleavage), I didn’t think my results would be even near those photos. I figured they were just an idea; a goal of what I liked. So I thought ‘atleast my breasts won’t have the symmastia, bottoming out, and capsulation anymore’. But no, they do look like the photos I brought in! I can’t believe the difference. They even feel better too! They’re definitely above and beyond what my expectations were, and I am so very thankful for that.

If they were to ever have an award ceremony for Surgeon’s (which they should!), you would definitely be awarded with ‘Best Breast Revision Surgery’ for ‘ Attention to Detail, Using the Most Current Techniques, and Quality of the Patients Entire Experience.’ Thank you Dr. Pousti. Myself, my sister Iris, and our friends Stephanie, and Lacey all appreciate our results so much, and the entire experience leading up to it.

Your Forever Appreciative Patient, T.N. ~ Palm Desert, California

My surgical experience with Dr Pousti & his staff has surpassed even my highest expectations. Everyone has gone out of their way to make me feel informed, comfortable, and confident with my chosen procedures. I had what is commonly referred to as the ‘mommy make-over’. (Technically I had a breast lift, tummy tuck & lipo-suction in the surrounding areas)

Dr.Pousti has a unique way of making the patient feel beautiful even before there is any actual surgery done. He and his staff were very thorough when explaining all of my procedures. Before the surgery we looked at photos together to make sure my expectations would be in line with the actual results. Everyone was very receptive to questions and extremely honest in their feedback.

Following the surgery it was strongly recomended that I stay a few nights at “The Hideaway”. It is a privately run center staffed by the nicest & most helpful nurses. I found it to be an invaluable way to ease into self care.

Post surgery, Dr Pousti & his staff have been so accommodating. Being from out of town, for the most part we communicate through email and over the telephone. Each of my questions have been answered promptly. When I do need to come into the office they make every effort to work around my travel plans.

While I am still in the recovery process I am already thrilled with my surgical results! My breasts have been restored to their beautiful youthful selves. From top to bottom, my clothing fits me so differently, that I feel as though I have a new wardrobe.

I can not thank Dr. Pousti & his entire staff enough for all they have done & continue to do. I would highly recommend him for anyone considering a ‘Mommy Make-Over’.

"I have had 'bags' under my eyes most of my life, and for some reason was hesitant to do any kind of surgery, because I had a fear of not looking natural. So finally at age 42, I decided to look into it because I knew I would look a lot younger and fresher if the puffiness was gone. I consulted 2 other doctors in La Jolla first, but decided to look into it more and after hearing about Dr. Pousti, decided to also see him, even though his office was way further than the other doctors, and from my home in La Jolla.

From the first visit I found him an extremely honest, knowledgeable and trusting man; just the kind of good feeling you hope to get when you're going for such a big decision. His office staff also gave me a very positive feeling, where you could see everyone was involved in some part of the patient care, and acted like one big family.

The other great thing that helped me choose him was his website. I needed to see before and after pictures of other patients with my situation, and his pictures and explanations were very helpful in making my decision firmer.
The staff and the doctor explained the pre-op and surgery procedure very clearly, and the surgery itself was probably the most 'painless', easy part!! I basically just said 'hello' and 'goodbye' to the doctor, not remembering any pain or discomfort during, or, after the surgery, to the point that I did NOT even take an Advil or Tylenol, let alone the strong pain meds that I had bought!! That part was amazing; I have taken more pain meds from a dental procedure!

I did the procedure a few months ago, and I have not been happier about my decision (except regretting why I didn’t do it sooner!). I look a lot fresher and younger, and I get compliments from everyone who’s seen me (even those who didn’t want me to go through it, saying that I looked fine anyways). They can’t help but be pleased with the results and have to admit it’s the best thing I've done. They're so happy with Dr. Pousti's job they keep telling me I have to get him a big gift!!!

And of course now that I'm done with the surgery, I hear that he's opening a new office in La Jolla!! I wish he'd done that a few months ago!! But he was worth all the long drives, and I would have gone even further to see him. Some things just have to be done with the best doctor, and whom you trust the most. Dr. Pousti proved to be above and beyond all that I had heard about him".

As with anyone who is thinking of having cosmetic surgery, safety is a great concern, and then there are the results. You want to know that at the end of it all, you have the results you were looking for. I spoke with several doctors prior to coming to Dr. Pousti and I did my research on cosmetic surgery. After my first meeting with Dr Pousti, I knew that I found the person I wanted to do my breast augmentation and tummy tuck. Dr. Pousti took the time to explain the process and was more than willing to answer all my questions. He wanted to make sure that I would be happy with the results and reassured me that he would do all that could be done to make it a safe experience. During my initial appointment and all subsequent appointments, I had the opportunity to meet with some of Dr. Poust's patients who were there for follow-ups. I was able to see his work and ask questions. I found this to be extremely helpful and it gave me great confidence in his abilities.

Well, it's been 4 months and I have to tell you that I couldn't be more pleased with the way I look and how well I feel. The first two months are a bit difficult, but as the discomfort begins to subside and the swelling goes down, you can see Dr. Pousti's amazing work. I have been told that my breast look very natural and have been asked, " Have you lost weight, you look great. I think that says a lot about Dr. Pousti's skills.

My experience with Dr. Pousti and his staff has been great. They not only demonstrated professionalism throughout the entire process, but also were very friendly and sensitive to my needs. If I have any other surgery done, it will be done by Dr Pousti.
