Let me start by saying I love Dr Griffin!!! I lost over 90 lbs within a year and had gone through roller coaster weight loss through the years. I'm 49 and not getting any younger and my arms were definitely showing my multiple journeys.
I spent several months looking at all f my options as well as researching Plastic Surgeons. I had variations in price from all of them including a group out of Atlanta, GA. I chose to schedule a consultation appointment with Dr Griffin after my conversation with his office staff. They were most helpful and accommodating with all of my questions. Once I met with Dr Griffin I knew he was the one I wanted to go with. Dr Grffin spent time with me answering all of my questions and wasn't in a rush. Very Important when you are a patient having a procedure and fear the unknown! The day f my procedure, Dr Griffin come n to meet with me and reviewed everything he was going to do. Again made me feel at ease. The hospital staff were awesome!! I felt like I was getting the royal treatment. After getting home, Dr Griifin called to check on me. Again very appreciative and answered my questions about the bandages, etc.
I've had numerous follow up visits that have went well. I'm now 3 months out and my arms look fantastic!! I didn't take before pictures but will see if the office can load them on here. I didn't choose the most expensive surgeon or the cheapest. I chose the one that made me feel the most comfortable and I felt I could trust. Thank you, Dr Griffin and staff for such an exceptional experience!

My recovery went very smooth. I had to keep my arms wrapped for about two weeks. I also didn't have much pain. I took pain meds for the first week and then went to only taking them at night. The hardest part of the recovery was sleeping on my back with my arms elevated on pillows. I did this for about 2.5 weeks.

So glad to hear you had a smooth recovery. I can only imagine sleeping that way for two-and-a-half weeks - wow! Please keep us updated.
