I was just wondering if anyone has had their upper arms done? I'm not at goal yet but I KNOW once I get there my arms will need a lot of work and would like to see before/after pics of yours, and advice....

I'm glad this is being discussed. I've been pricing different procedures so I have an idea of what I might be looking at when I reach goal. I know that there will be a long scar. My plan had been to just get tattoo's to cover them. One arm I am planning on being a 1/2 - 3/4 sleeve anyway. The other arm wasn't going to have much in the way of tattoo's, but if I have a big scar, I might have to change that.

It's similar for tattoos. One of the more painful tattoo locations is the underside of the arm. I cannot remember why (nerves, sensitivity, something like that).

I'm planning to have my arms done in December. I can wear a S-M in tshirts but have to buy a L because of my arms. That said, I'm too embarrased to wear a tshirt unless the sleeve comes down to my elbows. Buying tshirts is so tough for that reason. Jeans are easy these days. I love my Sleevie.

Everyone I know who had their arms done are really unhappy with the scars.

The plastic surgeon who did an absolutely wonderful job on my face lift, says he won't do arms because the scars that are left are unavoidable

and ugly.

I've never actually looked on the plastic surgery forum at obesityhelp for someone who had their arms done to see if they are happy with the results.

Daisy, there are actually quite a lot of people that are thrilled with there arms over at OH.
