WORTH IT
When I was 16 I lost 100 lbs. I gained back about 50 when I was 23. Within the past 2 years, I've slowly lost the 50 again and feel in the best shape of my life! I've been wanting an arm lift for about 10 years now but never managed to save up until now.
My surgery is scheduled for May 19th and I couldn't be more terrified and excited!

I live in Edgewater (between downtown and midtown Miami). I just had my arms done in combination with breast lift with implants a little over two weeks ago. Who is your doctor? If you have any questions from a new preop, ask away. Good luck and congrats!!

Your arms look great but I hVe a question because I'm considering doing this because of my skin became wavy from Lopo. I noticed near the scar lone the skin isn't smooth and looks wavy. Will that go away. I don't want to go through the expense and surgery if it would smooth my arms out. I was also considers something called themitight or therms smooth

Hi. I'm interested in getting both the arm lift and bra line back lift. Can you post some pictures of your bra line back lift? Are you happy with the results?

Thank you.

I've been counting the days. I've also been waking up in the night with terror at the thought this surgery. I know everything will be just fine and I will be happier than ever afterwards, but I can't help but be scared.
I'm very much looking forward to feeling good about the way my arms look. I've sacrificed so much in order to make this surgery happen, and to get to this point. Saving pennies and pennies and dimes all to put toward feeling better about how I look. I wish my family and friends were more supportive. I know everyone is tired of hearing me talk about it..
What are some of the things you ladies have had to sacrifice to have your surgeries?

Congratulations!! Share some pics, please! You and I are 3 days apart; it would be interesting to compare incisions, bruising, etc.

Congratulations! I want to have the same surgery so badly. My body is small but my arms have always been big. I need to do this for me. I'm saving because I don't know the cost, but I'm hoping to have it done by December.

Well not really. Actually not for a few more weeks. Bummer...since this is the longest I've gone without working out since I started losing weight. Each day that passes by, the more I realize that I was so unprepared for recovery. I'm so anxious to be healed up and wearing cute shirts already! Yeeesh!! A lifetime of sleevelessness awaits me. =]
