For those interested in arm lift.  9 days from surgery. I still have swelling and still having to wear compression garments. Probably will for about 3 more weeks. I am soooo excited.

Wow looks awesome. I want to get rid of my armpit fat, but I would not want to have the long scar.  Is there such a thing as an armpit tuck.

My loose skin ended up in weird spots.

Thanks for all the good feedback. My doctor is Dr. Marisa Lawrence.

Yes, there is a scar running from my elbow to under my breast, but already the difference is amazing. I went for a followup this morning. The swelling is almost gone and there is no bruising. I have been released to start stretching to increase my range of motion. I have to get where I can reach the top of the White Board when school starts on August 8.

LaShelle. There is a procedure where an incision can be made cross ways (front to back) in the arm pit to tighten a small amount of excess skin without the huge extended scar running down the arm. I would have loved to have done this, but alas, I just had too much excess skin.

I will post pics of the incision when the rest of the glue falls off.
