Extended Brachioplasty/Arm Lift

I had an extended brachioplasty/arm lift on April 20, 2016. There was an improvement in the fat/skin removed around my breast region. However, my upper arms are not showing a significant improvement. It was a painful operation and I don't know that the outcome was worth it. I was hoping that my hanging skin on my upper arms would be gone, but I suppose this is what I will live with. My arms are still flabby and annoying to deal with as I carry excess jiggly skin. Several people have asked me to post photos on Facebook, but I prefer to post here. This is my before and after result.

I would ask for a free revision. This is not a favorable outcome.

I'm so sorry! Ask for your money back. He messed me up.. than did a revision and it was much, much worse!! I wouldn't trust him to do anything on me. Best wishes!!!

I would ask for a revision to take additional skin off the arms. Check my profile, my arms were similar to yours before my lift and I no longer have jiggly skin.

Your look great!! Who was your doctor?

My doc was Paul Albear but he closed his practice shortly after my surgery.

Oh I see. He did a good job on you!

How are you seeing that he did a good job? Her arms do not look any better from start to finish, just an added scar from the ordeal. I would def ask for a revision or see another doctor to get another opinion.

The original post was me referring her to my review because my arms were in similar condition before my lift. I believe the good job was directed to me, not Naomi (original poster).

WB, your arms look very good. I interpreted the message as it was directed to hear. My arms look horrible. There is no question. I am glad that other people agree with me. At least they know that I am not blind. This is not the outcome I had hoped for. This has been very disappointing.

I wouldn't say horrible, they just need some more taken off. Have you asked for a revision? You could try sending your story to the botched tv show, if they put you on the show they fix it for you at their cost.

Well what is sad is that Botched contacted me. I don't think I will get picked for Botched, but I thought it was interesting that they found me before I placed this post up. I would love for them to pick me, but I doubt it.

Wow, I wonder how they managed that. It's worth a shot, it's free :).

I am so sorry. You should have received a much better result than what you got.

I'm so sorry you did not get the outcome you wanted or what i would expect at all. Wb33463, that makes sense on Enough replying to you. I did not look at your results and i apologize all if i was abrupt. I am 7 weeks post op and have had nothing but problems on my road of recovery. :(
