    I had brachioplasty about 10 years ago after a huge wieght loss. It was good but sometimes the scars pulled and that was a bit of an ouch. Because I am not a fantastic healer, the lines for the scars were present for a few years. On one side today you can still see the darker scar. It was nice to get rid of the flapping but my advice would be had weight exercises for at least 3 months first to see if you can make any difference.. You have to wear a compression garment for about a month which is like a long sleeve shrug(at least I did then but things may have changed), so don't do this in the summer. Cheers B

    Im just curious. I know insurance won't pay for that since it would be considered cosmetic. So how much would something like that cost and to have the flab on the inner thighs

    I Had mine done 2 weeks ago along with tummy tuck it didnt go soo good but I wont pontificate on the problems I had. My arms are healing very slowly and they hurt especially my armpits have some yellow stuff the Dr says its normal my tummy is healing great I still feel a bit weak but I guess its part of the procedure. I had my gastric sleeve done almost 2 years ago and I remember being a baby as well. good luck to you

    I'm 6 weeks out. Had it with tummy tuck. Arms look great. Hopefully scars continue to diminish.
    I had a few very unpleasant days. Not as much pain but discomfort. Even now they feel kinda tight and sleeping is not 100% comfy.

    I had all extra skin with no need for any lipo on arms.
