HipsAndLipstick

finally after all that running around I got a date. Im scheduled for January 20th, 2014 with Dr Koshy at St Lukes Hospital. Thats in NY. I was expecting a sooner date but he will be on vacation on December. I am so glad to finally have my date. what about you guys? anyone else has a date for January? Share it!

About four weeks ago I had my brachioplasty and liposuction of the love handles with Dr. Yager in NY. I love my results and my scar. I'm at my goal weight of 170lbs since Feb 2015. My arms were the most important thing for me to do. However, it is a painful and slow recovery. I took off two weeks from work and that still was not enough. I recommend anyone who is getting it done to take more time off and to have a lot of help because you are going to need it. Here is the picture I have with me so far... later on today I will post my scar pictures and before and after. Update: 5/13/15 I uploaded pictures of my before, the scars and also a picture of now 4 weeks post op. Hope this helps someone out there.

Congrats!! no, no drainage tubes for the brachio! best thing ever!! good luck on your procedures. post pictures when you can! Cant wait to see it.

I started looking as soon as I hit the year post mark. take your time and consult with different surgeons before making your decision. Good luck!

It sure is. Thank you! Congrats to you too. Don't get me wrong, I went out to eat and spent time outside but without using my arms or making sure no one bumped into me. I was in pain but not taking any pain meds.

I am currently at 172lbs and I am 5'8". In this picture I was 178 which was a month ago. My doctor set a goal at 170.. Im two pounds away!

any plastic surgeon in NY that you will recommend? I would appreciate it!!

Omg thank you so much! Inspirational!

Awesome! What procedures did you get with Dr Capella and how much it cost? How are your scars? how was your recovery?

Thank you guys !
