i had my stitches taken out of my arms today. the doctor i work with took them out. he commented that dr. huacuz did a really good job. i am totally happy with how they look. still have a little swelling. but no infections and very little lines. so far so good. i bought some special scar cream to help the healing. i hope it works. feels so good to have the stitches out. they were driving me crazy.

im so pleased with my surgery that doctor huacuz did on my arms. they are all healed and look super. completely natural. i was nervous about them looking too tight or lumpy. no.........they are smooth and the scar is not too bad. it is a long scar and is going to always be there. but it is worth it to wear sleeveless shirts and dresses without the ugly bat wings......... best thing i ever did. dr. huacuz is a very talented surgeon. im thiking about getting my thighs done. has anyone ever had just there thighs done without a body lift??? if so how does it look. i dont want big scars on my legs........

do some research on thigh lifts. I was told by one PS that the incision would be straight down the inner part of my thigh to the knee. I went with surgeon #2 because he is tucking it up instead of over. The only incision I will have will be at the upper part of my thighs across. Good luck.

I would not let him touch any part of my body. Do some research on his history and reputation.

Snowbird, why do you say that? I assume you're talking about Dr. Huacruz? Did you have a bad experience with him? I've been googling him, but haven't found anything negative associated with him...:)

I do not need anything done and am on maintenance. Dr. Huacuz really knows his stuff. But, if I did...I wouldn't hesitate to see him for whatever I need.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
