The experience was fantastic once again!

Noticeably worse scarring in the arms compared to the lower body lift but still not bad. I estimate it’ll take another six months or so for the red color to fade from the arm scars based on my tummy tuck experience. I did months of professional scar massage with a physical therapist with application of silicone sheets followed by Silagen gel twice a day and hitting the scars with my Theragun twice a day. I have some residual numbness in my left forearm and over the areas just behind my pelvis along the lower body lift scars but both areas are improving so the nerves seem to be regrowing normally.

These are my results at four months after surgery along with the couple of areas where my body rejected some sutures. It took forever for these areas to close up, leading to some pretty poor scarring compared to my tummy tuck scar and lower body lift scar. I still can’t complain as I’ve seen much worse scarring with brachioplasty.

Here’s the difference in contour in the arms and back line just six weeks out from surgery. Huge improvement visible even that soon after surgery.
