After surgery my line definitely feels much more refined. My arm line is slimmer overall, and I can clearly feel the fit around my upper arms is different when I get dressed, so my satisfaction is high. The scars did bother me at first, but they've faded a lot over time so now they hardly bother me at all! The bruising and swelling were worst in the first 1-2 weeks and then kept going down, and after more than a month it improved noticeably I think! Right now there's no swelling or bruising at all :) The overall recovery went more smoothly than I expected. If you just take care in the early stage, after that I think I healed without much trouble in daily life! I'm glad I had no side effects! Overall I'm satisfied with both the result and the recovery, and I plan to keep taking care of it and maintaining it!
