All going well!
Drains / tubes out yesterday, along with the staples in my arms.
The BURNING pain from the lipoed areas seems to have subsided substantially - VERY nice!
Back into a girdle / compression garment now that those drains are gone - feels helpful and is not TOO tight.
Here's some pics - got fitted at VS and depending on the bra I'm a 32DD or
32DDD - WOW!!! Prior to surgery I was 36C - changes ---
And I wore a medium panty, now it's a small or X small - LOVE the changes - who wouldn't!!!!
Notable difference with the arm surgery and lipo vs the TT / LBL and BL / BA surgeries in March one week apart: my energy level is normal this time, which I hugely notice and appreciate. Surgery on June 27, cruising Oahu and test driving a Porsche the 29th until we left Jule 1st and on the go since returning to Kona - love feeling 'normal'!!!!

You look phenomenal! Congratulations! :)
Thank you for your kind comment!
You do look pretty damn good. Did you get fat transferred ? I just got back to the recovery house.
How are you doing???? YAY!!!! Can't wait to hear and see!
Didn't do the fat transfer - I'm ok with that.

There are pic posted of my tummy. My Tim looks great my butt looks big but the dr has assured me it will go down 30%. I stayed nigh at hospital. Back now at recovery house. So glad I am staying here.
Wow glad I found your review. I so keep thinking I am too old to be doing any PS but you changed my mind. Thanks for the positive vibes. I have 43 days to wait. So nervous
Fantastic! All the best to you!!!
You look wonderful. Was this done under general anethesia?
Thank you!
Absolutely!!! Each procedure was at least 6 hours and was three surgeries.

Arm lift and lipo done
Here's my 'afters' - I'd heard the pain was AWFUL - well, my high tolerance paid off once again - not near as bad as I expected.
Stopped Percocet before I left the recovery center the first day post op; now it's Tylenol only, as needed.
Have some lipo 'dents' that I'm hoping will resolve on their own -
Ended up with seromas on my back so even tho arm lift was the drainless procedure, I ended up with drains. Hope they come out today!

Your arms look wonderful, now I'm hoping you will get your drains out. What a difference!
Yes, so far so good - thank you!
They look really good. I see he uses staples. Some pics I just see stitches. I wonder what the theory is on that. Go rest up hope the drains come out soon.
Thanks - I like what I see so far.
Yes, I know what you mean - no clue what the difference is / why some do / some don't.

One week PO appointment tomorrow and am confident that the drains will come out.
I was NOT prepared for the burning sensation I'm experiencing in the areas where I had liposuction - even with my pain tolerance, this is BAD!!!
Hoping it passes quickly -
