Has anyone had to pay for the plastic surgery on their arms?

I had my gastric surgery in Feb, 2003 and have lost 103 lbs. I am having a hard time buying clothes now because of my arms. A large size top fits my body, but not my arms and a woman's 1X top fits my arms, but is too big for my body. I have heard that insurance does not cover the surgery to take off the excess skin and fat from the upper arms. Has anyone had this surgery and paid for it themselves? IF yes, about how much did it cost?
