Dr. Pan is professional, intelligent, and compassionate with excellent bedside manner. She was very honest and encouraging with my surgical concerns. I’m extremely happy with my results! I was able to breastfeed 15 months after my surgery, and my breasts returned to their post-surgical size when I stopped breastfeeding. I’m also pleased with the shape, size and density of my breast thanks to Dr. Pan.

I finally decided to have boobs : ) always wanted them, but was scared of: 1. Surgery, 2. Possible Side effects, 3. Complications.

But… I decided to take the risk. I’ve had two kids, breastfed them both total of 3,5 years (but I was always flat chested)

My height 5’2″
Breast size 30/32 AA – A
Breast width: 11,5-12

I’m choosing mentor moderate profile plus 225 or 250cc will make final decision of the day of surgery which is tomorrow!
I chose Dr Deborah Pan. She’s amazing, warm, easygoing, knowledgeable. I felt like I could talk to her about everything. She introduced me to subfascial breast argumentation, I did my research on it (read medical journals, not a lot of doctors in the US perform them) and it is the best way to go for someone like me- personal trainer, who loves active lifestyle and weight lifting.

I was so nervous!!! But an entire team was amazing. Everyone put me at ease. I told dr Pan to pick size on the operating table either 225c or 250cc whatever will look best and most natural on me 🙂

She did 225cc!!! I literally just got back home 🙂 I will see them for the first time in two days. Post op is on Thursday

Updated on 3 Feb 2021:

Feeling great. Resting. Dr Pan did subfascial augmentation. Which means I’m not in crazy amount of pain. I’m only taking Tylenol for pain managment. The most challenging thing is sleeping on my back 🙂

Updated on 4 Feb 2021:

Bandages are off. Feeling so much better! 225cc everything looks good

Updated on 21 Feb 2021:

This is what they look like when I’m flexing my chest muscles (under fascia placement) and how firm they still are at week 3. But they are getting softer every single day and I feel the difference.

Updated on 16 Mar 2021:

I’m really happy with my results. They feel comfy, soft, I like the way they look. I’m working out a little, stretching my chest muscles daily. I love my progress

As always, Dr. Deborah Pan, is professional, skilled, warm and concerned about my well-being.  I go to her primarily for Ultherapy procedures, which I use to help lift my chin area.  I’m 65 and people tell me I don’t look my age — so it’s working!  I feel that I am in good hands, and I trust her completely.

My surgical experience was great, and I think Dr. Pan did a really good work. To be clear my recommendation is NOT a complaint but a suggestion.

I saw Dr. Pan in her office once and it was 5 months prior to my surgery. I’m very surprised leading up to the surgery there was no other conversations with Dr. Pan or the nurses. However, they did contact me for my lab works. Most information I received was on YouTube because I did not feel I had enough details on my surgery. There definitely should have been a meeting with Dr. Pan leading up to the surgery or her nurses.

In any case, I have no complaints about the staff, my encounter with them were always pleasant, especially after my surgery. Dr. Pan is a very talented surgeon. I think it’s the patient’s responsibility to be informed, but the office could have been a bit more involved in that educational process. I am extremely happy with my results. I would highly recommend them.

The team at Esana is incredible! Dr. Pan is compassionate, professional, knowledgeable and makes you feel totally at ease. She also does beautiful work and is an incredibly skilled surgeon. I felt comfortable with her from the first day and always felt like I could ask questions, whether it was on the phone or in the office. And the estheticians are all just as wonderful! I can’t imagine going anywhere else!

Dr. Pan and her staff are wonderful!! She was the most welcoming doctor I’ve ever met!!! I was extremely nervous going into my breast augmentation procedure, but she told me exactly what she was going to do and listened to exactly what I wanted! I am beyond thrilled with my results, they look supernatural and beautiful – I’ve received so many compliments and the recovery process was very smooth! I can’t recommend this place enough!!! Thank you, Dr. Pan and the entire Esana staff!

Dr. Pan is the ultimate professional. She is caring, kind and a master at her craft. From the very first phone call to the office to her superior support staff at Yale for the surgery, I was reassured and supported 100%. Dr Pans surgical staff led by Jennifer at Yale were also truly incredible. I’ve been so very impressed and so very pleased that Dr. Pan is my surgeon.

Dr. Pan is an excellent surgeon. I was extremely pleased with the results of my reconstructive surgery and the post-surgery care by Dr. Pan. Her office staff are also excellent…very caring and helpful. The care I received made a very stressful and traumatic time in my life much easier to cope with.
