We actually found out I was allergic to the adhesive tape they used to put over my incisions. The doctor told me to remove them and the red rash almost immediately disappeared. The redness has gone away, but I still itch every now and then. My nipples are not puffy anymore. I had a lot of fluid between my shoulder and elbow. It has gotten better, but it is very sore because I'm still a little bruised in that area, but I am getting better every day.
I'm driving now, but still can't raise my arms over my head without it feeling like it's stretching under my arms.
I'm not taking pain pills anymore, just ibruprofen if I feel like I need it. Wearing this bra for 24/7 is driving me nuts. I can stop wearing it for 24/7 after two months, so that will be December 17 and I'm counting down.
The doctor and his staff are amazing. Every time I email them a questions, Elisa emails me back almost immediately every time. She is wonderful.

My name is Jodie and I live in Houston. I'm planning the exact surgery as yours. Short scar arm lift and breast lift without implants. I was planning to use dr. Lyos. I see your last post was over a year ago, but I would love to talk to you.

thank you,
Did you consult with dr. Lyos? if so why did you choose Dr. Horndeski instead?
Would you mind letting me see clearer more update pictures of your short scar arm lift?
Do you still feel the arm lift was worth it? I'm guessing you are similar to me, in that my arms are not bad enough for the long scar arm lift.
How painful and uncomfortable was the recovery?
If you work, how long before you went back to work?
I guess that's enough questions to hit you with for now! lol! :-)
thanks
Jodie

We didn't talk with dr Lyos. We went with Horndeski because of the way he does his breast lift with no anchor scars. I can send more pics later tonight. I think it was worth it. It is numb still were the incision is. I have no feeling there still. Recovery wasn't too had from what I can remember but I had the breast lift and arms done at the same time. Not as bad as the tummy tuck recovery. I don't work so not sure if the time off. I'm guessing 6 weeks. Let me know if I can answer any more questions for I and I hope this helps.
