WORTH IT
My original review can be found here: https://www.realself.com/review/wesley-chapel-fl-long-overdue-arm-lift#

I've made a new review for the revision because it has been done by a different doctor, as my original surgeon closed his practice.

8/5/16 was the original surgery date. I've been overall happy except for some extra flesh around the elbows creating points and folds.

Would love to see a picture after a year of how your scars looked before you retouched your arms.

Hi I just had my pockets of fat revision two weeks ago. Under each arm and my left elbow. Yours look good. I'm sure mine will too. Just all these recoveries are difficult.

I also had under the arms revised but it was part of my original review because it was done just a few weeks after the arm lift.

OMG! I have been trying to find someone who had the same problem and needed revision!. I was the last operation my doctor did before retiring. What is that!!!! How long since you had the revision, and are you happy? Was it done under a general operation? How much did it cost for a revision?...
I need this operation!

It was $450 and I was awake. It was just numbed. It was done on 12/11/17 so not too long ago. It is still healing so I can't really say what the end result would be but thus far I am happy. My left arm still has a bubble of fluid under the skin. It looks odd too, with new scars and old in the same area but time will fix that.

That is good to know you had it awake and only cost $450! I need to find a good doctor to have this done. I hope you will be posting more photos as it heals please. Thanks.

This is 24 hours later. I took some advil when I got home and my arms were still numb. I did wake up in the middle of the night in pain and removed the bandages and replaced them with very large band aids. That did help, I think the bandages were too much. I felt pain for about half of the next day and then suddenly realized I'd forgotten about it and it didn't hurt at all. Currently only hurts if those areas touch something. Pretty pleased about that, I've been through quite a few surgeries (non-cosmetic) and I really believe the pain level afterward has a lot to do with how well the surgeon works.

Thanks

I see a real improvement from this revision. Also, you have swelling so it will look my better after you are completely healed.
