So pleased with my new arms. Everything including scar placement is remarkable. I'm so happy I decided to move forward with a complete redo. I have total range of motion, No dog ears and had zero complications. I have no other surguries planned, just gonna work on my health and fitness. I turned 60 in May and I am more confident in my body than I ever have been....thank you to Dr Aker for your brilliance

So happy for you. Looks great!
Thank you....that means alot
Arms are l@@king FABULOUS! Everything still going alright? Figured I'd drop on by as it's been a while. Hope all is well with you!
Aw thank u beautiful...I'm so happy with my new body. I have been through so much and I have missed this platform....doesn't seem to be as active as it once was. Not sure how I would have gotten through it all without all of you...I'll be forever grateful for all of u
Hi could you provide update pictures now 4 years out? You looked amazing at 6 months. Considering this surgery with Dr Aker.
I posted updated pics and 1000% recommend dr Aker. I consulted a few years ago for thighs and he saw my arms and said "those are my arms!!!" I said they sure are!!! Soooooo glad he was able to fix them, i truly looked hacked up and botched. Let me know what u decide to do

What a difference a year makes

My arm lift revision surgery was exactly a year after my initial arm lift. I'm so grateful for dr Aker. This is a comparison of what I was dealing with a year ago and my revision results....I'm truly over the moon happy

How is your arm lift healing?
It's healing so well...I had my 8 week appt this past Monday and was started on silicone scar strips and compression for continued swelling but I'm 1000% happy
Yay! Happy for you!!
Are u having additional surgeries?
I would like to have a touch up where my
incision ends. But you can’t see it with my
bathing suit or underwear. My doc says to
give it more time. How about you?
I'm hoping no...my 60th birthday is in May so I started thinking face lift but then I saw they only last 5 years....I've thought about thighs but I don't want those inscisions so I'm hoping to be done. My Dr took care of dog ears as an in office revision...this arm lift was a complete new arm lift....so much wrong with the first one and no dogears at the ends of the inscisions at all
