WORTH IT
Arm infection is finally gone (didn't seem surgically related, my skin is so tight and caused incision to split from a little bit of movement), and I'm healed up pretty well. My scar tissue hurts a lot and impairs normal range of motion but I have started self manipulation of the scar tissue to hopefully massage a break down of unnatural tissue deep inside.
Scars don't look terrible, the most noticeable ones are actually in my arm pits.

Had some problems with my incisions inside my arm pit area but after getting over that hurdle this process isn't so bad. Got my stitches out this past week and besides some ones that his below new skin and are working themselves out, it's starting to be much better. I don't have much sensation around the incision lines. They are discretely placed and fading nicely already! Currently I'm working on rehabilitation for my range of motion and a few areas are still rebuilding new skin tissue. The Z in the arm pit incision provides better range of motion so it might look awkward now, but I prefer to have better motion :)

Day 0-4 I thought I would die. The pain was excruciating and I went into detail on my breast reduction review (procedure was done together!)
I'm happy to say with wonderful attention from my surgeon, Dr. Pousti, and his staff, and a needed med change, have me feeling more confident and in much less pain! This will be amazing, I'm sure! I can't wait to see!
