I just posted 23 day post-op pics of my new arms on my profile page. I just LOVE them and am feeling pretty much back to normal. In 2.5 weeks I go back for a follow-up and should be given the green light to start lifting weights again. I can't wait!!

Your arms look awesome! Curious though-why is the incision line on the left arm curvy vs straight like the other?

lol...not sure why one is wavy and the other is not. I had sooooo much loose skin that it was probably tough for my surgeon to get it back together again. I will tell you thought that I think the wavy one has it's benefits- that arm has more "give" to it. The straight arm is much stiffer!!

Laura, the arms look fantastic. May I ask, have you had anything else done because your back is so well defined. Have you had a TT or BL? If not, what kind of gym regimen do you follow because I want to emulate it.

Thanks!! I haven't had anything else done yet. Started with arms because mine were horrible and I can hid everything else pretty well with clothes. When I get out of debt, I plan to have a lower body lift for round 2 and boobs/thighs for round 3.

I work out 3-4 days a week- an hour on the elliptical and an hour on weights. I LOVE the gym now!!

Laura, your arms look FANTASTIC! I need to start lifting weights. :)

I can't tell from the photos, but how far down under the arms do the incisions go? I want a brachioplasty to include getting rid of the loose skin roll that sticks out above my bra and under my arms. Did your arm lift also address this issue? Thanks!
