How exciting, your right about the scars, I wouldn't care a bit. You will feel so great afterwards and you deserve it.

I'm so right there with you babe...it's so funny, we are always at the same place in our journeys. My brachioplasty scars will be the zippers that allowed me to unzip my fat suit :)

I'll have my breast lift and tummy tuck first and then the arms....

As for the scars post op you can have laser treatments and cortisone injections to help reduce the size of the scars.

Great information.Thanks for sharing. I wish you the best of luck on the plastic surgery journey. It seems like once we've decided to have WLS, there's a surgery part two involved to tackle the excess skin. I'll probably need a breast lift and tummy tuck. You have a great attitude about the scars. Love the battle scar/tattoo mentality!!! Thanks for that!! I'll be willing to deal w/ my scars too just to get rid of the excess skin I may have. Good luck:-)
