  1. ...how one procedure looks before tackling something else...which is actually a good thing according to the professionals. It's just frustrating on this end of it!!! Very few people understand our viewpoint on this, how the excess skin affects us. Another thing is that he's very realistic with expectations. That took me some time to "hear" and still does...the results also take a while to really emerge. As in months. But I can say, the scars from my previous surgeries are barely visible, and the overall contouring is impressive. I'm a gigantic pain in the neck as a patient, and my pain threshold is very low. He handles all of that well, and that's the reason I've done this for the 4th summer in a row. I hope this will be my last for excess skin removal. It is not easy. I hope some of this info has helped. Right now, I'm not sure if I'd have done the arms again...ask me in a few months. :)

    Sorry for rambling!!!
