After rapidly gaining weight during pregnancy & losing the weight approximately 5 years later the skin around my arm lost elasticity. Routine weight training and exercising did very little to help. I looked into a arm lift & didn’t want the long scar of a traditional arm lift so I opted for a mini arm lift which the doctor agreed I was a candidate for. I was concerned at first due to the puckered appearance of the scar but I’m happy to report that it did flatten out. I’ve had some Fractora Tx to help with the appearance for the scars as well. I am very happy with the results and would choose this provider again. The only suggestion I would make is to have your compression garment at the time of your appointment as they are not offered at the doctors office and I spent a considerable amount of money purchasing different garments until I found the right one. I wish I would have had the procedure years ago. In review of the pictures it should be noted that I have had a baby (gaining some weight & thus loosing some muscle since the surgery that I’m actively working on). The stretch marks are next on my wish list.

Hi. It looks great! I’m thinking of doing the same and a bit scared to be disappointed. Do u have a before picture? Did you loose inches? What procedure and techniques was used. Where did u buy your garment? Please respond.

I do, it’s posted if you look closely it’s on one of the pictures. I took the before myself so it’s probably not the best comparison picture. I had a mini-brach coupled with some lipo. I bought like 6 different garments afterwards and it was very frustrating. Amazon, Walmart and Dunham’s were a few of the stores. I finally found a “elbow” compression sleeve that did the trick
