I want to get my arms lipo also but is it worth it. How much does it hurt & how long do you wear the compression sleeves?

I want arms lipo too but I believe I will get that done separately. It doesnt seem to offer dramatic difference when I view it with bbls and whole body lipo.
Great questions and I would also like to know...Soooooo....Im going to follow you..hehehe
I'm reading from many girl "No" it ain't worth it. Personally, I say work out, lift weights cuz that will burn that arm fAt fast! Before it tones it up.
I have big arms n I can not do a push up to save my life. I like to run for my workouts. My sx is not until Dec so Im going to try the weights n see if It makes a difference.
Lissy...it will tone the Hec out of ur arms!! A d prevent u from having loose skin too. As far as push-ups . Once u do one you can do two and so on...by the end of the week u will be doing 8 push-ups then it'll multiply! Trust me
I am doing arm lipo with my BBL on May 28...it makes sense that I get it done and I really hope it makes a difference. I have bigger arms and skinny legs...so not very proportionate and I would be even more disproportioned if I only had lipo on my body. Since yours is in December, I will let you know how mine works out.
I say workout those darn arms right up until your about to get surgery! Go hard everyday. Then ur Lipo to arms will b well worth it! U will b a lot more happier not having to much loose skin.
I'm just seeing this...okay, Ill start with some 5lb-ers....
so u will recommend actually toning the arms prior to sx .? i m thinking about doing lipo on arms

Calling all bbl sisters who toke the Vitamedica...

Calling all bbl sisters who toke the Vitamedica recovery kit before n after surgery. Should I buy it? Is it worth it? If yes when do you start taking them?

he told me the same thing... and i ,m 5.1 124 pounds if i were u i will follow ur surgeons's recommendations. i heard he works better on small frame patients , so there is a reason why he is telling u not to gain any weight.. looking at ur pictures u probably hv enough donor fat, i m not a dr or surgeon/ I hv a follow up appt with him on may to confirm i dont hv to gain weight for my date ( july)
You could be right! I will confirm with him before I start eating up. The summer is coming up n I don't need extra weight. Did you get the date you needed? How many wks are you taking off?
Yes my surgery is late May. I just had a baby and sent Nancy my pics along with my wish pic. She told me the weight I'm at (136lbs 5'4'') was enough but I had to make sure I maintain it. Personally I don't think it will be enough, and I really want to get to 145 but I'm struggling!!! I eat all day and take Mass Weight Gainer protein shakes but its not doing much
I'm agree! I'm also getting my arms n inner thighs to so I know I have fat lol I will confirm with Dr. S.
i m now 7 weeks post op, at this point i m very pleased with my waist but unfortunately was unlucky enough to get a dent on my right side of buttocks, have a 2 months post appt with salama on sept 20. and i will see what he says in regards to a revision. I am also contemplating to get a second BBl round ( I know i am crazy ) with arm lipo this tme but will see about that once i know more about the revision. i m not sure if i wil have enough fat in my arms , armpits to even make a difference on the second BBl. salama literally sucked me dry. my stomach fat that followed me since i can remember is completely GONE >! i m down to 24.5 from 29 ( i used to work out 4 x per week and still have the 29 inch.
