Hello, I’m looking into getting a full TT with an armlift. How common is it to have residual nerve pain or compartment syndrome after either of these procedures. Someone I know lost all feeling in her right leg and arm after her TT and Armlift. I’m so nervous to proceed.

Answer: How common is it to have residual nerve pain or compartment syndrome after cosmetic procedures? (photo) Thank you for sharing your excellent question. There may be some subtle skin sensation changes after a tummy tuck (typically in a triangle shaped pattern from the belly button down to the horizontal scar) and brachioplasty (along the scar line in the inner arm) but fortunately this is rare, while compartment syndrome is virtually unheard of. Hope this helps.

Answer: Tummy Tuck and Arm Lift Thank you for your question and I understand why you would be nervous to proceed with this surgery. The nerve issues that you described are very uncommon and are very unlikely following this surgery. I would you suggest you seek out a qualified and experienced surgeon and discuss these potential complications.
