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.

From the scheduling, right through my post operative appointments, Dr. Pan and her staff are excellent! Nurse Jessica is awesome! She gave me excellent tips to help along with my tummy tuck recovery. Dr. Pan, as always, just remarkable. Her calm demeaner relaxed me, I have an adorable new belly button and my surgical scar is thin and already flattened after 9 weeks. I highly recommend Esana!

I have been wanting a breast augmentation since i was 23. I was always barely a cup and very self-conscious of my chest. I knew a couple people that went to Dr. Pan and their results were amazing so i decided to book with her! The entire process was seamless, and recovery has been amazing! I am 5 ‘8 155lbs and ended up going with 350cc and 325cc. I am very muscular and do CrossFit. Now I do love my boobs however I’m feeling like they are too small for my frame. I know i am only 4 weeks post op but feeling like the size is off. Photos uploaded

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

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 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.

I have been using medical grade skincare for over 10 years. I am a working Mom in my 40’s who has always taken care of my skin. I did not think I would notice such significant change in my skin so fast!!!! My skin felt tight, smooth and was “glowing” according to my friends and even my husband!! BioSerum Firm is my new obsession!!!!! Must have

I would strongly recommend the team at Esana to take care of any if your plastic surgery needs. I had a complicated case. Nevertheless, Dr. Pan and her team provided excellent service and care. I was well informed and cared for at each step of the process, especially throughout my post operative care. My results were better than anticipated. My surgery provided the jump start I needed for overall health improvement. I’m grateful to have found Dr. Pan.
