WORTH IT$5,875
I had done an arm lift in 1999 by another surgeon and it turned out a disappointment. For the past several years I've been wanting to get it done over but worried that there were not a lot of doctors doing this type of procedure. I chose doctor Rubinstein because he did have several photos as past patients doing this procedure and they all looked pretty good. Although the anesthesiologist's fee was quite high, now I know where the extra money went in how I was prepped for the 3-hr operation. This was something your would never find if done outside a hospital!! I'm only 4 days out so I will like give another report in a few weeks.

These are my "after" pics from a 1999 armlift
I found these pics of a former arm lift surgery taken shortly after the procedure. from 1999. As you can see it didn't turn out very well. The arms remained basically the same over the next 13 years. I have never been overweight. I had droopy arms due to genetics. Thanks, YiaYia (grandma)

Hi there, welcome and thanks so much for sharing your journey with us!
How did your surgery go, are you recovering well and not in too much pain?

My surgery went well. The only discomfort immediately after surgery was a sore throat and jaw pain when chewing hard food. Took pain meds for that, not for the arms. I guess it was that breathing tube they shoved down my throat during surgery. My next follow-up is on the 17th. I will update then.
