I had always maintained a slim body, so I never thought I would have such bulky upper arms T_T. After having a baby and letting time pass, even when I took medication and lost weight, my upper body was bulky and screamed middle-aged woman!! So I made up my mind! Along with upper-arm liposuction, I had the accessory breast tissue—the symbol of middle-aged women—and the back line of my upper arms contoured too. You will not read it all if I make this long lol. I really had no bruising and almost no swelling, so from day 3 I barely wore the compression garment... I could comfortably go around wearing short sleeves that came down to my elbows! The most inconvenient part was that I could not fully raise my arms, so I could not tie my hair T_T. I went around looking like a mess lol, but yesterday at the two-week mark I had my stitches removed, and today, day 15, my hands can go behind me enough to tie my hair!!! In conclusion, honestly, I could do daily activities after three days, and the visible bruising seemed to disappear completely within 1–2 weeks! But what I am deliberating over is that the line was prettiest and looked most reduced on day 3, while at two weeks my arms actually feel lumpy!? Is it because I naturally have muscular arms..? Yesterday, while having the stitches removed, I asked the clinic; they said swelling normally begins from days 3–4, and from next week they begin aftercare to correct the contour!! Friends who are three weeks after upper-arm liposuction lol, could you tell me how your contour has changed?!
