3 lbs of skin was taken off my left arm and 2 off my right. Right arm has one band, left arm has 2. Surgeon will do more lipo on both. Especially on upper left and near elbows. The bands hurt. I am 4 months post op. Still wear compressions. He thinks on the smaller bands he can cut them loose with tiny incisions. But the larger upper left one would probably need a z plasty. Can't find info online to this specifically. more than one z? What is recovery like ? Pain? See him again in a month.
