Arm Lift Scar Revision - what are my options? (photos)

February 15, 2022
Asked By:weightloss2022

I am 14 months post-op and very unstatisfied with my arm-lift scars. I don't wanna go back to the surgeon (Dr. Emre Goenen in Istanbul) who performed the arm lift because when I asked for a revision (arms are slightly asymmetrical because of his liposuction) he became angry. Also I don't believe in his competence. So I wanted to ask if there is anything that I could do about those scars or is the scarring normal? Would you recommend scar revision? And if so, what would the procedure be like?
