WORTH IT$7,500
So here goes. My arms. The scars look pretty good. Sometimes they are redder and show more. They can't do anything about the wrinkles on lower arm. That's just me, no elasticity. The CTT I had really made an improvement on all the loose skin my first Dr. Left. The CTT was in March and I still have very noticeable scars so I cover them with larger panties. I love my breasts they are where they are supposed to be. My arms are sore all the time and very sensitive.

So far my communications with their office and Paulina his Coordinator have been prompt and helpful. She gets back to me right away with answers to all of my questions. She is very professional. I had a video conference with Dr. R. and he was very nice, answered my questions insisted that we follow all the procedures to get the best result while being very concerned about my safety. He didn't make any promises but said he would do the best he could and he made me to understand I must have realistic expectations. I just left the recovery House after spending 9 days there. I had two final appt. after surgery. I was having a difficult time with some pain the first couple of days and we went over what it could be. He finally suspected a bad case of acid reflux got me some medicine and I was so much better. He is a good doctor he does complete follow through with you and all the instructions for when you go home. You will not be disappointed. He is a very good surgeon. I am very very happy with what he did with my body. I'll be 70 next month, don't wait. It's now six months post op. I didn't get the results I wanted. I have to have a revision on my tummy. It wasn't pulled tight enough, a lot of fat was left where when I sit my belly rolls over quite a bit. More so on right side. I had some fat put in butt suppose to be right in the middle but I ended up with saddle bags. Not sure what went wrong wish I had not have that done. I still swell everyday at 6 months. My belly is still numb. I have a hard lump above my belly button that is sore. I have a new dr. Dr. Jeffery Sweat who just did a BL and arm lift on me. So far looks great.

Hi, re: TT I want to get it redone. But I just got through this. BL and arms. I know each case is different because of sag etc. lack of elasticity. But the two of them together w/ surgical fee and anesthesia was $14,050. It's another 1500. If u want implants. Hope that helps it also depends on where in the country u are. Good Luck

Hi I just read your review. I was wondering how your doing now.

Hi, I am doing well. I love my breasts, they have healed and scarring is minimal. My arms are still sore and my right forearm is numb and may never recover, it's sensitive. That's one of the downsides of surgery, you never know how your body will respond. I can say my arms are just ok. It's been 7 months. I go back in Sept for check up so I will have him look at my arms. I also had the revision to my TT. I had to have a circular TT to fix me. He got rid of all the extra skin in front and back and pulled up the butt so it doesn't look hanging and flat. I'm happy but some things I regret. Having the first Dr. Add fat to butt. He put way too much in and now I have trouble getting pants to fit. My butt literally pulls on my pants and I am constantly pulling my pants up. I'd rather have a flat butt. I actually looked thinner before. At least my new Dr. Made the butt look better with what he had to work with. I'm been all over the web looking for ways to get rid of that fat he injected, without surgery. I'm watching what I eat. If you know of anything or anyone else knows how to get rid of injected fat in butt please let me know.

6 Month TT update and BL and arm lift with another Dr.

User Avatar

I waited awhile to do this update because I wanted to see if there were significant changes. There's not. I did email my Dr. Pics quite awhile ago. I was frustrated and whining, complaining of all the costs to have it redone. I know he doesn't charge surgical fees but still the 1500. Hospital and anesteologist. Another 1400 for recovery house. 10 days boarding dog. Airline flight both ways. I was thinking I was trying to save money and it will end up being more than if I would have stayed home in the first place. So that's my fault I made the decision to go to TJ. But, I thought I might get a little sympathy from him. I never received a phone call, text email. NOTHING. I see now he has to do many revisions.
So I have had a consultation with a Dr. Up here and ended up having a BL and arm lift here close to home. I had it done on Jan. 5th. Everything went well it's 4 days PO. I am also going to have him do my revision to the TT, just don't know how soon. My new Dr. Is Jeffrey Sweat from Sacramento.

Hi, Long Time, hope you are doing well. Can’t wait to hear about your transformation and if it’s all holding up. As you can see I had my arm lift and. BL. Almost wish I would have had a slight reduction, now that there up where they are supposed to be they look way bigger. Lol. I had my Dr. Here repair my TT. Had to have circular TT which pulled up all the fat put in my butt, but it had settled in my hips and they were pretty big. So...I just 2 weeks ago hAd Lipo to outer thighs and inner thigh lift. Already I look better. I’m back in a compression garment, getting used to the damn thing. I also had some small pockets of fat removed from arms.

Hi, so dr.R. didn’t do a good job? I’m sorry to hear that. You did so much research and everything and the place looked beautiful. I’m 54 and live alone, so I don’t know what I’m going to do...plus I have dogs and cats. A year has passed now. Hope you are well and happy!
