It’s been 5 months since my stem cell arm liposuction and arm lift at TheLINE!

I had arm, axillary (side breast), underarm, and upper-arm root liposuction with Dr. Joongjae Baek. Since my upper arms were very saggy after losing a lot of weight, I also had an arm lift with Dr.Jaeho Cho.

I chose TheLINE because it’s well-known for body contouring and specializes in lift surgeries. They use stem cells for both liposuction and lifts, which helps with faster recovery. For arm lifts, scarring is usually unavoidable, but they said using stem cells helps the scars heal faster. After some consideration, I trusted the doctors and went for it.

Even after losing a lot of weight through dieting, the fat around my upper arms and underarms didn’t go away, and the skin sagged a lot as a side effect. My goal was to remove both the fat and the sagging skin, and the results are beyond satisfying!!

I haven’t done any special dieting or management since the surgery, so my weight is only down 2kg, but everyone I meet comments on how slim I look. Every time I hear that, I feel it was worth every penny, haha.

The arm lift was done in 4 stages, so the incisions were fairly long, and I initially worried if it was the right choice. But day by day, the scars are healing quickly. If I take good care of them this winter, by the time I wear short sleeves next year, they’ll probably be barely noticeable.

For now, I wear long sleeves anyway, so no one even notices — they just think I’ve lost weight, haha. I just need to focus on taking care of the scars!
