Honestly, even when I gained weight, I tended to store it especially in my arms, so the stress was intense Even when I weighed about 15 kg less than I do now, my upper arm circumference was still around 33 cm lol It was honestly amazing how my arms barely slimmed down at all... My upper body was already a bit broad, but with my chest, bust, and upper arms all there, I looked bulkier overall and the fit of clothes was really unflattering Especially when buying tops, I had to shop based on my upper arms, so I always wore oversized stuff and never even dreamed of fitted knits or short sleeves..... I wasn’t originally agonizing over arm liposuction for that long, but summer was coming and once it passed I thought I probably wouldn’t do it again, so I kept researching and decided quickly. I did the inner upper arms, accessory breast tissue, and back bulge together, and the amount they extracted was enormous to the point I could see the effect right away,,,, But the real thing I learned after doing it is that doing the accessory breast tissue at the same time seems way more effective than I expected?? Of course my arms got slimmer too, but the change in my side profile line felt like the accessory breast tissue made a big difference. Especially when seen from behind, the reduction in upper-body bulk was REALLY big! From the surgery day to about day 3, it was only a little sore, and if I stretched a bit at a time it got better quickly. It hurt whenever I moved, but I could still eat, shower, and go to the bathroom just fine. It’s exactly 3 weeks now, and the bruising is almost all gone, and the swelling is really much better than at the beginning! My arm circumference has decreased by about 5.5 cm now, and my weight has also dropped by about 5 kg. But the visual change is much bigger than the weight loss. Especially the side profile really changed. Before, the outer part of my arms looked round and spread out, but now the line feels a bit more organized? It’s not yet a completely straight line!! kind of feeling, and there’s still a slightly bulky look left, but I think I need to wait another month or two to judge that. But one thing is certain: compared with before surgery, the arm line itself has definitely changed lol And the fibrotic lumping I was worried about has also decreased a lot, probably because I kept stretching and massaging consistently. I also got medium-frequency treatment and laser together, and personally I think that worked quite well. After the sessions, the swelling definitely felt like it went down differently. Now I can sleep on my side too, and there’s nothing in daily life that feels especially uncomfortable! Honestly, the final line still isn’t there, so I’ll have to see how it looks after the one-month mark, but so far I’m satisfied lol If you’re the type whose arms are the one area that never slim down, it’s definitely worth considering...
