‘Best decision I ever made’

Antonia Arcabascio has always envied Pamela Anderson’s ample endowment. 

So, while dropping 60 pounds with exercise and Ozempic, the Staten Islander bought herself a set of breasts to beat the Playboy pinup’s perky pair. 

“Getting my boobs done during my weight loss journey has made me feel like my best self,” Arcabascio, 28, a cosmetologist, who maintains her newly toned frame at Intoxx Fitness, told The Post. 

“I’m proud of the way I look now,” bragged the brunette, who went from a shriveled size B-cup bra to a busty double-D. “I look like t-ts on a stick!”

Like Arcabascio, slenderized sirens nationwide are treating themselves to breast augmentations as a reward for slimming down with weight-loss meds. 

The bust-boosting trend comes as an effort to combat “Ozempic breast.” It’s a deflating disadvantage of the weekly injections that have caused some women severe sagging and shrinkage. 

Spurred by rapid weight loss, the droopiness mimics the unsightly slumps of “Ozempic face” and “Ozempic butt.” Both plagues are buzzy, albeit unofficial side effects of the type 2 diabetes drug, which has left A-list mugs looking emaciated and has flattened fannies to unflattering extremes. 

But the gals of Gotham aren’t letting their big apples go down without a fight.  

Anna Steve, a board-certified plastic surgeon with Neinstein Plastic Surgery, told The Post that jab users have flocked to her Upper East Side offices, desperate to reclaim their cleavage. 

“Over the past 12 months, we’ve seen a recent uptick in women seeking breast enhancement surgery,” she said. “That coincides with the boom in the use of injectable weight loss drugs like Ozempic.”

Surprisingly, Steve — whose enlargements can cost upward of $15,500 — said most ladies in NYC are settling for subtle add-ons, rather than huge honkers, to complement their newly petite physiques. 

“Many patients fear that larger volume implants will make them feel ‘fat again,’ ” Steve explained. “Women are often seeking a smaller volume, more natural-looking bust as the final step of their weight loss journey.”

A patient of Steve who preferred to remain anonymous told The Post: “After a previous reduction and 200-pound weight loss, I was left with deflated breasts. Having previously been an H cup, I knew I never wanted big boobs again.”

“[Steve] listened to me and was amazing in restoring volume and fullness without an over-the-top, fake appearance,” she added. “I couldn’t be happier with my results.”

Michelle York, 41, from Los Angeles, opted for tummy tuck and a moderate upgrade to her chest in June 2023 after losing 90 pounds with anti-diabetes and -obesity injectable Mounjaro. 

Instead of getting implants to improve her hang, the mom of two told The Post she underwent a breast lift and fat transfer — excess chub moved from her flanks to her bosom — hiking her girls up to a cutesy 34C cup.  

“It’s the best decision I ever made,” said York, a full-time influencer. “They’re small, but they’re perky.”

But Danielle Spillman, 38, a married mom of seven from Lynchburg, Virginia, said that after dropping 80 pounds on weight loss jabs she feels better having gone bigger in the bosom. 

“I got a breast lift with 500 cubic centimeter gummy bear implants,” Spillman, a lifestyle content creator, told The Post. She had the augmentation, as well as a tummy tuck, late last year.  

Unlike traditional silicone or saline embellishments, gummy bear implants are made with a silicone interior and exterior, making them more durable and natural-looking. 

“I went from having saggy B cups to double-Ds,” Spillman bragged. “I don’t even have to wear a bra.”

“Losing the weight, getting the breast augmentation — it’s self-care that makes me feel good about me.”

Arcabascio, who’s considering a non-surgical Brazilian butt lift next, agreed.

“I’m all about doing filler, Botox, implants,” she said with a laugh. “Whatever makes me feel good.”
