I’m 9 months post op after arm lift, is it quite normal to feel swelling and tightness still after this period of time?
At nine months post op you may experience some minor swelling or tightness, but you should be generally feeling back to normal. Swelling or tightness may be increased if you had a day of strenuous activity. However if this discomfort is something you are experiencing every day I recommend returning to your surgeon for an evaluation.
Yes, you may still feel tight because that is what you wanted. Most of the swelling has subsided by now. Micro-needling can improve your scar.
