Skin Removal

[vachick64 32]

I'm five years out from bypass and will have my last plastic surgery this fall. Thighplasty and a hip staple. I have virtually no scars after having five previous surgeries' date=' I'm the queen of Maderma and cocoa butter. My brachioplasty and breast aug was last July and my arm scars are pretty well faded, my breast scars are underneath and notable faded into white already. My skin is young though, I'm 27, and lost 160 pounds. It's totally worth it.[/quote']

What is maderma?

Hey ladies, I know this was an old thread, but I'm hoping some of you will still be around. I'm ready to have my brachioplasty, and my surgeon wants to do it January 7th. I have a vacation to mexico planned for march 1st and wanted it done before mexico, but now I'm getting nervous about if I will be pain free by then. It gives me 7 1/2 weeks between surgery, and the day I leave. If it were you, would you do it? One the one hand, I really want my thin arms to wear in tank tops and swim suits. In the other hand, I don't want to be miserable or painful and not be able to do all the fun things I want to do.
