How bad are the scars for arms?
I guess I should ahve added in my original post that my arm incisions go all the way from the bottom of my elbow through my armpit and down the side of my breast. I had a lot of extra skin in the armpit and so he just extended the incision and took out teh "side boob" flap as well. (the bonus is that he also removed the hair follicles and sweat galnds in the armpits... so no shaving OR sweating!

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.

I did not heal well and my arms are a mess........but I am getting work done....and they will never be the same...yes they are smaller...but I hate wearing short sleeves... I feel like I am 289 lbs again....and people can be very mean....starring and always asking what happend....but with the help of my New Ps.... and me taking it ONE DAY AT A TIME... it will get better....If you like I can send you my pictures... but be your own advate and look for people who have had their arms done.... seeing in person is the best beacuse we all heal different.
Good Luck....Debbie
