Arm Lift - In 2009 I was diagnosed with breast cancer that had spread to my lymph glands. I had a lumpectomy followed by radiation. A year later I had a lat-flap reconstruction that went terribly wrong. I was left with a totally deformed breast and it was actually painful to wear a bra for more than a few hours. The good news...I was cancer free! I decided to celebrate by having a much-needed arm lift but was terrified of getting lymphedema. I had consults with 4 surgeons. One told me there was absolutely no danger of getting lymphedema from an arm lift. The next refused to consider an arm lift because of the chances of lymphedema. A third told me he would operate if I wanted to "roll the dice." And then I met with Dr. George Marosan (who, by the way, did not charge me for the consult). I expressed my concerns regarding lymphedema. He suggested a rather unique way to do an arm lift and, at the same time, use some of the excised fat to graft to the hard, ugly scars on my breast. These scars were dark, hard and wide. He said grafting fat to the scars would soften them. For the arm lift, he would do liposuction first. A year later he did the arm lift without any incisions in the armpit. I have seen some real horror stories in Real Self of gapping incisions; infections, separations, necrosis, etc. I had absolutely none of that and my incisions healed beautifully. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Marosan and his wonderful staff (expecially Eden and Danielle). Dr. Marosan really takes pride in his work and listens to his patients. He addressed my concerns and gave me back arms that matched my body. He even made it where I can wear a bra all day long. How cool is that!!?! More

I am so pleased with the results of the arm lift. I have total confidence in Dr. Marosan. He is an artist! More

So far, so good! Just had arm lift surgery two days ago. I am pleased with results and so happy I finally did this. There were no surprises. Doctor Marosan and his team are FANTASTIC!! More

Appointment went as expected. All my questions were answered and I appear to be recovering well from arm lipo. Will have arm lift in September, 2016. Dr. Marosan is definitely a 5-star surgeon! More

I had fat, droopy arms and a badly done lat flap breast reconstruction. I went to Dr. Marosan only for a consult about an arm lift with concerns for high risk of lymphedema. He recommended starting with just arm lipo first, and the actual arm lift after the lipo healed. He also suggested fat grafting to the hard scarring on my misshappened breast. I had my first post op visit and am so pleased. The surgery went as expected and there were no surprises. Dr. Marosan called me at home the evening after surgery to see how I was doing. I also got a call from Jeudiel (the anesthesialogist). How many doctors do that!!?! And Dr. Marosan's staff (Eden and Lauri) are fantastic!! I was very sceptacle about even getting surgery on my arms but am so totally happy with the outcome and feel I am in good hands with Dr. Marosan!! More
