I am two weeks post with lipo (thicker genetic arms) and had the extended lift. This video has been very helpful. Thank you.

⁠@@nikkied76yes! My scarring isn’t too bad but I prefer the scar vs the large arms. I also went down a bra cup because I lost the side boobs. 😂

How much does a arm lift cost?

[@starrwilliams0127]

do you accept insurance for patients who had weight loss surgery if not how much does it cost? Where are you located and do you have a recovery house? These are the best arm lifts I ever seen…..

Great Advise...

[@snowcat4895]

Can you talk about scarring for darker skinned people please

[@vickiefrench2084]

Actually, it’s very common. I’m 4wpo and doing well. Starting lymphatic massage.

[@aimeesalinas2418]

Painful but super happy ..

[@angelpaschall4378]

On week two recovery. Yes so painful but worth it. Genetically large arms and minor weight loss made my arms terrible.

Is there a way to have less of a scar? The line on brown skin is always so prominent .

[@pureplasticsurgery]

Absolutely! We understand that scars can be more noticeable on brown skin. There are some steps you can take to help minimize the appearance of scars: Keep the wound clean and protected: Follow your doctor's instructions for wound care and make sure to keep it clean and covered to prevent infections. Proper hydration: Apply recommended moisturizers or lotions to keep the skin well-hydrated, which can promote better healing. Sun protection: Avoid direct sun exposure on the scar and use sunscreen with a high sun protection factor (SPF) to prevent discoloration and darkening of the scar. Scar massage: After the wound has healed, you can gently massage the scar in circular motions to help soften and improve its flexibility. Remember, every person and every scar is unique, so it's important to consult with your doctor for specific recommendations tailored to your case. Over time, many scars tend to become smoother and less prominent. In the early stages of the postoperative period, it's common for scars to be more visible, but with time and proper care, they may become less noticeable.

Please note that it's always important to consult with a medical professional for personalized advice.

Is it out patient or are days spent in the hospital afterwards. How many Dr. Is it’s after if we live a few hours away?

[@jessicagraham4872]

Is healing from a butt lift (or lower body lift) the same recovery as if you have a BBL?

[@user-em5ys8xu9x]

If I have a pouch of skin hanging in the front of my upper arm would that be considered an extended and would it be a continuous scar from the front armpit to the elbow and is there an extra cost

[@carolwsherman]

If I flew in for the arm lift how long should I stay in the area

[@kimgilligan1316]

Do you have to have a certain BMI to get this?

[@BeachCAL]

What was the scar cream you mentioned, it was hard to hear?

[@brendagorman6666]

Scar away worked great for me
