Arm Lift surgery over

Hello everyone, happy to report my arm lift is over and recovering well at home.  Surgery was Tuesday morning at 11:00 a.m. and I was in and out and back home at 3:30 pm enjoying a nice coffee.  Had my pain prescription filled at the drugstore and I think I could have skipped getting it as I took only 4 pills and have been taking Advil now and again as needed.  I will see my surgeon tomorrow morning for my first post-op visit.  Not sure what takes place tomorrow, but sure will be nice if he removes bandages and I am able to come home and shower. 

I took some before pics and also took some more pics when I got home to show the type of garment they put on my arms.  I'll post them later.  The garment I am wearing since surgery reminds me of a shrug...soft stocking material that wraps around my back over my shoulders and my arms were put into two snug sleeves.  Not sure if this is what I will wear after tomorrow or something else will be used.

I am thrilled that all has gone so well thus far.

Take care...Linda

Hi Linda:  Congrats on the success of your surgery.  I am having my arm lift on Dec 11th and for some reason was/am kinda worried.   Mostly about the scar.  Reading your post really is encouraging and I look forward to hearing about your journey.  I am so glad that all went well and that you found it to be somewhat easy.  Look forward to seeing your before and after pics.  I am sure that you are happy to be on the "other side."
