70-days post op
WORTH IT$5,875
.as u can see not much different than 5 days post op. I never did get any swelling so I’m somewhat disappointed that my arms are still so big but definitely still glad I had it done. My Dr said if he had pulled in any more skin I would have trouble reaching.

worried sick now Jan 22, 2014
my arms look like they're beginning to go back to sagging again. It's no wonder with all the stretching and moving just in everyday activity. Up near the armpits I have ugly pouches that I thought would go down in time but...no, they haven't. I don't want to lift weights. This is not what I signed on for!

still doing good
I am now 45 days out and have my professional after pics scheduled for Feb 11. I've been using Mederma Advanced gel every morning and evening and I hope this stuff is really working. I have not used a compression garment in almost a month.

Wow, that looks nice and similar spot where your scars are as mine. For the last 3 days my left arm near my elbow was bothering me but now I'm not even feeling anything but expect later in the day a little discomfort but hardly enough to complain. I'm still swollen a little bit and still wearing the garment since my doctor stated I need to wear it for 4 weeks all the way over the elbow. I only take it off for a shower/bath and than leave it off for about an hour and put it back on. I don't like cold weather but now I'm glad it is not as warm in Florida as normal. Good luck and I can see you are happy and that is what counts.

How is your experience when you stopped using the garment? I leave the garment off for approximately 1 hour after taking a shower/bath to a sure my arms and the scar are completely dry but than I'm glad to put it back on even though at night it is quite warm. I have to wear it at least until my next appointment on Feb. 4th.
