Two week Post Op Arm Lift

Each day my arms get smaller and so does the stitches. I get a lymphatic massage daily. I am very happy they feel last tight/plastic everyday. Pretty much painless.

Looking Great! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Glad you are healing well and feeling happy about your results. You look awesome!

Thanks each day it looks better
Beautiful! Im doing mine dec 2!! Scared as hell...but its now or never!
It's not painful....your arms feel kinda plastic like because they are swollen afterwards. I will keep taking photos as they progress... Good Luck...
Thank you...your words to Gods ears!! I hope allcitciscis swelling! You look awesome! Where you ok first days with going to washroom and being able to reach? Any good tips? Could you only sleep on back first few days? Thanks for responding! You are my inspiration girl! Look great for 2 weeks Wow!!
Thank you ...even though I had no real pain...you are stiff so take the pain meds that should help with reaching to wipe etc. I think soft pillows placed in the right ways for your comfort will help you sleep anyway that you want. Each day the swelling goes down and they look better.My biggest advice is just let them rest don't try to grab things up high or lift things that are heavy. Listen to your body. :)
Thanks for the advise!
Thanks you too!
Would you please post updated photos of your arms? I am looking at two PS I. Costa Rica and photos would be very helpful. Thanks!
