When I first realized I was going to get the breast augmentation, I did extensive research on the internet looking for different doctors. I visited from Orlando to Venice, going to a total of 13 different plastic surgeons before I picked Doctor Sessa. I did lots of research on exactly what procedure I wanted to use, what kind of implant I was going to use. And then, when I finally got to Doctor Sessa, he was totally comfortable with everything I had researched. Just reinforced my plans and everything was perfect.
The other 12 doctors I met, the atmosphere of the office wasn't as friendly. I didn't feel as comfortable. When you're having surgery, you want to feel super comfortable with the whole staff, so I really could just tell 100% right when I walked in that Doctor Sessa was the one. Just his personality is very kind of bubbly and soft, like I like. It wasn't just you felt like you were another number, like, oh, it's just another patient. You actually felt like you were special to him, and he really cared about you, and he didn't just want your money. He wanted to get to know you and do a really good job and make sure that you were 100% happy. So, I told him I wanted a little bit more natural, which I'm really, really happy with, because I didn't really want them, like, all up in my chin. I wanted them to, you know, go very relaxed. And that's the look I wanted. And sometimes with new friends, they don't even believe me that I have them done. I have to literally show them the tiny scar that you can barely see anyway for them to actually even believe that I got them done, because they feel so real.
They look so real. Even my boyfriend, who I met about 3 months after I got them done, didn't believe me that they were fake. So, that was my goal. So, I'm very happy with that. Well, there's not really much to talk about with the recovery because there wasn't a whole lot of recovering. I think 24-hours later, I was already on the beach laying out in a bathing suit. My recovery was definitely really, really quick. They, I guess, give you shots while you're in surgery to numb you is what I was told. And I had no pain, no bruises at all. I was back to work. I did it during the Fourth of July break because my work is closed, so I would have a week off, but I definitely could've went back to work within two or three days easy. It was a very easy recovery. My results are absolutely perfect. Like most women, you always have one breast that's a little bit bigger than the other. So, that was one of the things I wanted to take care of, which is very slight. And so, I was definitely worried to see if, after the swelling went down, they were perfect, and they were absolutely perfect. Super soft feeling, natural. They sat exactly where I wanted them to sit. The scar is non-existent at all. So, I'm definitely very happy with the results. I've recommended him lots of times. I have friends that have come here right after me that have got the same procedure done and other procedures. I definitely recommend him 100%. He's everything that you could ever ask for in a plastic surgeon. And I definitely support the surgery in general, but I definitely try to motivate my friends to come here to at least get a consultation first, because I know that they will love him.
After My Breast Augmentation I Feel Better About Myself
After breast feeding, I just felt really insecure. Like I said, I wouldn't go to the beach. I wouldn't wear hardly-- I would wear, everything would be to my neck. I wouldn't wear any low cut tops. Nothing. I felt like a 12-year old, you know? I felt like I had nothing. I have a 16-year-old sister, and I think she was more of a woman than I was. I just felt so not womanly. Even after having a baby, you know? It was just really upsetting. Depressing.
I went online. I didn't look at anybody in Port Charlotte just because I didn't want to go anywhere in Port Charlotte. I looked up Sarasota and Fort Myers. First, I did the research as far as pros and cons of breast implants. I looked up photographs of them. I looked up what the procedure was like and the recovery time because of my son. I knew I'd have to have somebody to watch him. I looked up all that stuff first, as far as what it would be like. I listened to other testimonials online. I just did a lot of research about the whole procedure and the recovery, and then I looked into doctors. I looked up Sarasota. I had two consultations in Sarasota, and Doctor Sessa was my first one; it was for the same day. I came to Doctor Sessa, and I brought my mom with me. We just liked him from the first time we talked to him.
He was comforting. He was professional. You just felt very comfortable in front of him, and my mom said the same thing. So, I decided to just cancel my other appointment. I went outside, and I just cancelled right here. I talked to my dad. I called him from the office, and I talked to my mom about it, and we just booked the surgery that day. We didn't even go home and talk about it. We just booked it right there and then. I just knew that he was the one that I wanted to do it. He was comforting, he was awesome, so I just did it.
I went to the beach about a week after my surgery. I go out now with my friends. I ask them to go out. I love going out. I bought new clothes. I have more confidence in myself now, a lot more confidence than I had before as far as going anywhere. I just like to go out. I like to wear whatever now. I can carry whatever I want and feel comfortable in it.
That was one of the main things: as long as I feel comfortable. I have a boyfriend. So with him, I feel a lot better as well. I just feel like maybe he looks at me more now than anybody else, which I didn't before. I just love it.
I would recommend Doctor Sessa to anybody. Anybody who asks me about my surgery, anyone who's interested in asking me about it, I would recommend him. I think he's a great man. He's a great surgeon. I'm very happy with my results. I'm more comfortable about myself. I feel so much better about myself because of him. Anybody who's asked me, my friends have asked me, I've recommended him. They've gone to his website already. He's just a great man. I mean, he makes you feel so comfortable with yourself. Even before your surgery, he makes you feel comfortable, which is what I think you need even in order to, you know, have a consultation. You want someone that's going to make you feel comfortable with yourself, and he does.
Yep. I would definitely recommend him to anybody.

Art of Cosmetic Breast Surgery - Bradenton FL
I think that there's a real art to doing good breast augmentation. I think if you start with a good eye for symmetry and a real love for a woman's body and her natural curves, I think that you could be very, very good at breast augmentation. I really love doing breast augmentations for that reason. I'm very detail oriented, and I'm very, very meticulous in making sure that all the curves are proper, that when I'm taking measurements before the surgery, that I know that I've chosen the right implant for you, that we're not choosing implants that are too big, that are going to really fit your figure. You know, I always take measurements during our consultation. And the reason why I do that is because I truly believe that there are implants that are too small for people and implants that are just too big for people. And one of the most common questions I have is, Doc, I want to look natural, and I want to look natural in appearance. That really helps me pick an implant size. But the biggest thing about me and my patient is that you're actually the one choosing your implant. When patients come to my office, you'll be able to try on implants, and we'll make a decision together. After taking measurements of your anatomy, we'll come to a conclusion and say, okay, if you want a natural-appearing breast augmentation, these are the implants that we should choose from. And once we do that, we can look at their shape, look at their hips, how wide their chest is. All of those things I take into account because they are all very, very important. It's not just that I love doing these things, it's that I love making the puzzle sort of all fit together. That's what gives me the greatest satisfaction is seeing somebody afterwards and knowing that we've chosen the perfect implant for you and that my patient says-- one of the biggest complaints with breast augmentation is that, Doc, you know, I wish I went bigger. And very few of my patients say that because they are the ones choosing their own implants. And not only that, they get to sort of put them on, strut them around. I even let them take the implants home for the night if they want to show their boyfriend or husband or whatever the case may be. Their partner. But you know, in choosing the implant for themselves, they're able to come to the conclusion that, you know what? This is going to look great on me, and that really helps me. Because, yes, there's a big artistic part of this and knowing a woman's curves and knowing how wide her hips are, how wide her chest is. Are these implants going to fit? Are they going to look too wide? Are they going to look too close? You know, all of these things are very, very important. There's a lot to seeing a perfect breast augmentation. There's a lot to it. It's not just you take an implant and put it into the position. There's a lot of symmetry involved. If the doctor does not have a good eye for symmetry, then you're not going to be able to get a good result, and I pride myself on knowing that I have a great sense of symmetry and a sense of balance.

Cosmetic Surgery Question Statement - My Recovery Was Really Good
As soon as I met Doctor Sessa, I knew I wanted him to do my surgery. I felt very comfortable in front of him, which is not easy for me to feel comfortable in front of somebody like that, but I did. He made me feel comfortable. His whole staff made me feel comfortable. He was very caring. I wasn't nervous in front of him. He made me sure that I wanted to get the procedure done. Once I met him, I knew I was going to book my surgery with him. I knew I was going to get it done.
He gave me my confidence back. Even after the procedure, even if I had a question, I knew I could call him, and he'd be here. I mean, I called one Saturday, and he was here to answer my question, which was great. Because you know, after the procedure, if you're nervous about something or you don't feel like something's right, he was there, and he answered it, and he made me feel better. He's just an awesome man. He was an awesome surgeon. He gave me back everything I wanted, and he made me feel comfortable. He was just awesome.
The recovery after my breast augmentation was actually really good. They told me to expect them, my breasts, to be really high. Don't be scared if they are swollen. They said, it's not-- the results are not going to be what they're going to be in a couple weeks, they said, so don't be freaked out. Don't get upset.
I had an Ace bandage on which I wore and which I had to come back the next day to get removed, as well as a sports bra. I had to keep the sports bra on for two weeks, and they told me that they would still be swollen even after two weeks. And of course, they're going to sit up high, so they're not going to be exactly what you expect them to be. But I loved them right from the day after. I was happy with them. Just because, you know, I had them. So, I was just happy.
I came back the next day. I got my Ace bandage off, and he took a look at them. And I was expecting a lot more pain. I felt, um, really tight. That basically was my pain, just a lot of tightness. Heaviness on my chest was another thing, but it all went away within 3 days. I was back to normal. I came back maybe a week later, and she told me that everything was going well. I was in no more pain. I still felt a little tight, which she said you'll still feel for a while because they did have to stretch out the skin. He said that's totally normal. Other than that, my recovery was really good. I hardly had any pain, just tightness. And that's about it.
I'm so much more comfortable with myself. I feel so much more like a woman than I did before. I just-- I love it. It's absolutely great.

Breast Augmentation - Customer Satisfaction 2 - Bradenton
The wonderful thing about breast augmentation is that it carries the highest satisfaction rate in all the cosmetic procedures that we do. That makes me happy. Because happy patients, happy surgeon. So, the thing that's so great about it is that it's instant. Instantaneous. They come into surgery, after they've chosen these implants and they've tried them on and gosh, I can't wait. I can't wait to get these, to get this over with and get this done because I just so excited. And then all of a sudden, in the recovery room, the first thing they do is lift the sheets up and look down and they're like, wow, I'm a totally new woman. And I've seen women transformed. I've seen women cry after they've had it. Whether they may have had some sort of asymmetry or some sort of an imbalance, and after making them balanced again, making them whole again after breast augmentation, they just love it. And that really is such a wonderful moment for me and that, gosh, I've chosen the right profession. Because this is just a wonderful thing to see. The transformations are amazing. Not so much in terms of physical prowess, but the transformations of how people see themselves. Unfortunately in our society, we base a lot of how we perceive others by their bosom, and breast augmentation has become very, very popular over the last 10, 15 years. It's received some bad press, unfortunately, which was all disproven, and gel implants are back on the market, and they're able to be used for primary augmentations again. However, created a little bit of a scare there for a little while. But all that has been unproven, and it's all sort of in the way side. But, the wonderful thing about seeing patients, and they're able to choose silicone or saline. Now, there's actually options out there. They can choose saline; they can choose silicone. They try them on. And there's just this wonderful feeling of empowerment for these women. Where they say, gosh, you know, I could choose one or the other. I could choose the size? You're not going to do it all for me? That's wonderful. I mean, that's 90% is their decision; 10% is my work. And together, we have 100% result. And the thing that I pride myself on is making sure that my patients are happy. If there's any inconsistencies, I'm going to follow them from start to finish, and we'll get through everything together. But I could tell you that the thing that's so great is seeing them come out of recovery room and seeing how happy they are and the feeling of elation that, gosh, you know, I've done it; I finally did it. I'm so glad that I did it, and I can't wait to go to the beach and try on a t-shirt or try on a bikini. And you know, all my patients send me pictures of them at the beach and say, thanks, Doc, or they send me e-mails. "Couldn't have done this without you, Doc." And those are all really, really neat things to see.

Silicone or Saline? Cosmetic Surgery and What's Best!
One of the most common questions I get during consultation is, or not even in consultation, sometimes on the street or out at a restaurant is what's best? Saline best? Silicone best? All these are really good questions. The way that I like to answer that question is, you really have to feel them. That's part of the reason why during my consultation. I let my patients feel them. They grab them, they squeeze the implants, they try them on. Not only for the size, but the texture. The texture of a silicone implant, a gel implant, is very different than what a saline implant feels like. Now, does that mean it's going to feel completely different when it's underneath, in your body? Not necessarily. Believe it or not, there's not a whole lot of difference. Silicone, however, does edge it out. I think silicone, and my patients will agree, silicone has a much more natural feel, and it looks more natural. Saline, on the other hand, is a little bit more tense and because it's essentially a balloon that's filled up. However, in 99% of patients, it's so difficult to tell the difference between saline versus silicone. So, it really becomes a choice for the patient. I can lead them down the road, but I will never make the decision for them. That decision is for them and them alone because it's their body, and if they want silicone, I think it's perfectly safe, perfectly natural and it's a wonderful choice. If they want saline, I think it as perfectly safe, perfectly natural, and it's a wonderful choice. So that's something-- I really allow my patients to make that decision.

Cosmetic Surgery and Breast Augmentation Sarasota Florida - Incredible Self-Esteem Enhancer
I was interested in doing a breast augmentation when I was 18 years old. Like, getting out of high school. Everybody else was developed except for me. And, like, almost everyone was doing it, also. So I told my mom about it and she told me that I should wait, like, maybe I'm going to take a little longer to develop. So -- but I was still looking up doctors, especially here since I live closer, it would be more convenient. But I also started looking in Miami, Tampa. My dad suggested California because of that show Doctor 90210, like that was -- supposedly they're really good surgeons. And years went by, I focused more on school and then now at 23, I came across Doctor Sessa's website and I saw his pictures and it looked like he did really good work. I read his bio and I was -- also saw that he did ABC news like interviews on ABC news and I just thought that that was really -- he had really good credentials, so I made a phone call. They told me to come in to do a free consultation and that's how it started.
I picked Doctor Sessa, at first because I saw him in the internet and like I said, I read his bio and he had pictures, like he had so much information on the web site and I think that's really important when you have a web site relating to plastic surgery, there's so many women and men looking for a doctor. And if, you know, I guess they can't go around from doctor to doctor all the time and the internet's a good way to look up and see, you know, what doctor would be good for you. And I felt like he had really good information on there. When I came in for the consultation, right away he made me feel really comfortable. He was, like, really warm. Like he introduced himself to me and to my mother. He spoke to both of us. He was looking at me in the eye, like he talked about every single topic. I just felt like he knew exactly what he was doing and that he could give me exactly what I was looking for.
