Brachioplasty on Friday
Nov 14, 2012
I am starting to get nervous about surgery on Friday to remove the excess skin on my upper arms. The surgeon said that people who want the surgery to be able to fit into a smaller size are more pleased with the results than those who want the skin removed because of cosmetic reasons.
I am able to fit into a medium top just fine, but cannot wear sleeveless tops because of the crepey, loose skin that flaps about. Even with a scar, I hope I am more satisfied than I am now. Insurance isn't paying for this and I could buy lots of fun stuff with this money, rather than pay for surgery. I just hope it is worth the fear, cost and risk.
I am having all sorts of nightmares that I die during surgery or that I left am disfigured. I guess I have never faced a totally optional surgery...this is completely elective and I am freaking out. Keep me in your prayers, OH friends.
