Bilateral arm lift and lipo for excess skin. Its been 12 days post op and the it seems my arm pit area and arm is only continuing to sag worse. I'm not exactly sure as to why he didn't remove more skin and why he didn't pull the arm pit area. If I was to ask the surgeon to fix the area, would I be in the wrong? Also, is this something I would need to pay for? I paid $8900 total and was wondering if this did not include my arm pit area? Very concerned. Thank you, ahead of time for you answers...
