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.
