I am naturally a bit muscular, so I knew I would not end up with skinny bone arms~ Still, the bulging side line improved and clothes that used to feel tight around my arms now fit loosely, so I am satisfied~^^ The scar is on the inner armpit so it is not noticeable and I barely think about it~ The color is still dark though.. it will get better over time, right? The bruising and swelling mostly disappear after about a month~ Right now I feel completely fine~ My coworkers are really curious about it haha If it were not for the cost, everyone would want their upper arms done haha Since it is surgery after all, making up your mind at the start is the hardest part.. and for 3 to 4 weeks after surgery there is bruising, swelling and numbness, but once that period passes there is nothing difficult left, only the joy of a smaller size~~ Arms are a really hard area to slim down with exercise, so I am glad I chose surgery, which gives a much clearer result than injection treatments~
