Posted under Arm Lift q&a

What are the preferred scar treatments for arm lifts? Is there one or combinations to use.

NoBuss
I have noticed that my arm lift scars are much wider than any other scars from surgery including my breast reduction and lift. I am 9 weeks out and still in a compression garment. I also still have one arm noticeable larger than the other which concerns me but the doctor says wait and see. I see him in 2 months. I realize things take time but I would like to have presentable scaring by short sleeve weather in the deep south.
