Lapband success now moving on to excess skin removal

Surgery 2 years ago...120 lbs lost has left me with a lot of excess skin even after hours and hours of exercise/toning. This summer going to get some of the skin on belly, arms taken off and liposuction on bra bulge and neck liposuctions. Can't wait to move on to this new phase. Angie

    So is any skin removal covered by insurance or will it be up to us? I'm glad you will be able to get work done!! How long do they say it will have to heal?

    Congrats on your success with your band and your upcoming PS!! That is so awesome! Is insurance covering it? I hope my little apron will continue to get littler but I'm pretty sure I'll also need a TT at the end. But not getting ahead of myself. I just reached onederland today so I'm just enjoying the moment!!

    Insurance WON'T pay for it. I could potentially go back to work after a week but it's good to just take a few weeks to heal.
