Just had my brachioplasty august 9th 2024 and one arm is super swollen all the way to my fingers, the other arm is fine. How can I reduce swelling.

Does the excess skin removal change how much yo u will end up weighing?

I did liposuction but my bat arms are still there and I’ve never been in overweight, it is just genetic. Do you still recommend the brachiplastic?

Wow - I've been to several surgeons and none of them explained things as well as this. I learned multiple things I'd never heard before. Thank you!

Do you have a recovery house?

I have lost 265 lbs through diet and exercise. Finally got a thigh lift scheduled. Cannot wait!!

Super useful and informative. Thank you!

Thank you doc, this was informative and still concise and gave me an overview I've struggled to find elsewhere

my practitioners can't seem to do simple procedures correctly these days.....so.....

Great explanation, thank-you!

The brachioplasty you did for me about a week ago has transformed my mental health in such a positive way. I’m still in recovery but I am so very thankful to have met you.

I'm hoping to consult with you in early 2025 about lipedema official diagnosis and treatment plan. How long is the current waiting time for an appointment? I don't want to put myself in the position of waiting too long to call for an appointment and then waiting 6 months for an open time slot. (I have been in that situation and it messes up my plans😅) Thanks!

I'm really bothered by many before and after photos of women's face procedures. The Before photos show a woman with unstyled hair and no makeup. The After photos show a woman with nicely styled hair and a full face of makeup. Given our cultural standard of beauty, everyone is going to look "better" with styled hair and makeup. I can't even imagine what a huge difference in appearance it would make to add lighting to the mix!

Question for a friend- if you've lost 100lbs does the skin ever tighten naturally? Or is this the only option? Of course toning may help but will it ever look less "deflated" (the friend is ME)

Thank you Dr, very informative

Extremely informative. Thank you Dr

You are so silly. Thank you for the information ❤

☺️ *promo sm*

My surgery is scheduled for this October. But I plan on being pregnant by next spring. Do you recommend I move forward with the surgery??? Will I regain all the weight back and undo the work with pregnancy gain???

i am a natural weight loss transformation and this is good information to consider.

What is the difference between a total tummy tuck and an apron removal(the removal of the lower hanging part of the stomach- the anchor weight around the lower part of the abdominal?

Found this video through your comments on Reddit, thank you!

where are you located?

thank you for being so Candid about the procedures. People should know.

I’ve had that inner thigh fat/ skin all my life! Always disliked my legs! They’re not symmetrical!

Can u put the scar around the leg in the panty area instead of down the leg

You seem like a very likeable and approachable plastic surgeon, Doctor. That's rare!

Hello Dr. Thomas. Ive been thinking about having this surgery for about 4 years and am still worried about disappointing results. Ive lost 20kg and have only minor skin laxity. My arm fat has always been an issue even when i was thin before any weight gain. My question is why dont surgeons perform liposuction ALL THE WAY ROUND the arms? I have excess fat all around my arms. What is the purpose of only fixing the lower side of the arms and not the upper? As far as i know theres only one surgeon (i think hes coined it celebrity arms) who is offering this and explains that surgeons are only trained to remove fat from the lower part, but in his own research and trials he found that skin naturally retracts after liposuction and will attach itself back onto the remaining fat so will not sag. So he offers this 360 degree approach. Unfortunately he charges an ungodly amount because he is the only surgeon offering this method. Why dont other surgeons jump on the wagon and offer this surgery?

This video is a great resource! Thank you!

I would take a scare over saggy thighs..will be looking into this in 2023/2024

Thank you for this information. But can you go into some detail about the OUTER thigh. That's where my concern is. I've lost 40+ pounds. I am 61 years old and my outer upper thighs look like melting candle wax. Ewwww! I've seen Dr. K's thigh & but lift (amazing) but no one else seems to cover outer thighs

On invisible arm and leg lift please

I Love Your Delivery And Teaching...I'm Interested.

Love your video, very informative, I want to get this procedure done, I would like to get the liposuction first and then after awhile get the extra skin removal; do you think is it a good idea?

Sexy doctor!

Amen

I am at a loss because I have lipodema fat on the top of my thighs and can't seem to get officially diagnosed or treatment and extra skin on the very inner thighs and outer thighs.

I’ve lost over 250 pounds and have had some Skin surgery however, I’ve not found a plastic surgeon that can address the excess skin on my legs and fat on my ankles. Any suggestions?

For shame on those who do that. People don't look perfect after surgery nor before.

Where are you located? And do you do bbl?

I need thigh lift in the posterior

Very informative. Thank You.

you are Armenian❤️👍

Loved this vid Dr!! Super informative

Hi how much is dangerous this operation? .?

This video was very informative! Way more helpful than my first consultation- thank you so much!

it would help if you answered the questions... Id like to know some stuff too as mines in 4 days...... and im terrified

How do doctors prevent those risks you mentioned?

Very informative I want this surgery. But I'm in Florida

I had weight loss surgery in 2010 and definitely looking into this after my tummy tuck.
