Re: It's finally that time!!
Oh, my gawd!
That's exciting.
As I've said before, the one plastics I would love is the arms one. Can't wait to see your recovery pictures.
Good luck, B2B!

Re: It's finally that time!!
Wow! Both at the same time! I had a tummy tuck and my arms done separately. I couldn't imagine having both done at once! I commend you! I'm a wuss for pain. I get my thigh lift done September 1st. That will be it for me. Good luck and remember to listen to the doctor!!!

Re: It's finally that time!!
I'm nervous about having them both done at once, but I have a really high pain tolerance, and will save money combining the procedures. I could also use a thigh lift and breast augmentation, but my tummy and arms are my main concern.

Re: It's finally that time!!
Good luck. I am recovering from having the works done just over two weeks ago. The pain in totally manageable. I did not take a single narcotic pain pill and was off even tylenol by day 4 or 5(can't recall for sure). I hope that your experience is similar!

Re: It's finally that time!!
I had my arms and lower face and neck done the day after Christmas. Tummy is scheduled for June. Extra pillows for your arms are a huge help. Happy healing!

Re: It's finally that time!!
Surgery went really well! Wasn't as bad as I had anticipated. No regrets! Here's a progress pic. I'm a little over three weeks out.
