5’4” and 135lbs from a 32A (maybe B) to a 34D to DD
At 38 years old…after 4 children…. Significant weight-loss and prior tummy tuck I finally decided to get my breasts done. I had Significant drooping and sagging (effects of weight loss and breastfeeding neither of which I regret). I went with the ideal implant because it made me feel safer that it was saline but had the more natural feel. I ended Up with 540cc along with a full lift. I was afraid of losing nipple sensation but honestly, I’m more sensitive even now a year later than ever. I will Say for those of you considering which to go with…. Larger sizes like this don’t seem to feel quite as natural and if that’s important to you…. You may want to lean toward a silicone option. Just my opinion.
Dr Pan and her staff were so warm helpful and patient. I did have a minor complication, but it was my body doing its thing and healing. I will only see them in the future I will never go elsewhere.

This would be just about a year post op. Honestly, I didn’t care about looking fake or not but they rly
almost look natural. I couldn’t be happier with Dr Pan or my results. They’re better than I even Expected

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.

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

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

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.

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

I have been visiting Esana plastic surgery center for over five years and my experience has always been very positive. The front desk personnel are welcoming and friendly. Dr. Pan is an excellent doctor. As a patient I have always left feeling more than satisfied with any aesthetic procedure I received from Dr. Pan. She’s also my go to for every new aesthetic device that comes in the market. The Eon Laser for instance. Thank you, team Esana!

After completing a great deal of research, I chose Dr. Deborah Pan at Esana Plastic Surgery Center to perform brachioplasty and reduction mammapasty surgery. Dr. Pan came highly recommended by several residents and surgical friends. Breast reduction was a surgery I had contemplated having done for 20 years. My only regret was not doing it sooner. Dr. Pan was amazing from the time of my initial consult (which was done virtually during Covid) to my final post-surgical appointment. Dr. Pan is absolutely lovely. She always made me feel comfortable during our visits. Her knowledge, expertise and patient care are unsurpassed. I could not recommend a more skilled physician with the utmost attention to detail. Thank You Dr. Pan!

I have been a patient at Esana plastic surgery for a couple of years now. Every visit of mine has been the best I could hope for. Dr. Pan is absolutely amazing. All the treatments I have had have delivered the results I hoped for. In addition, it’s always a pleasure to be greeted so nicely by the front office reception. They always make me feel so welcome. The office, the doctors, support staff and nurses are just amazing, and I recommend this place to anybody who is reading my review.
