Susan, 62, a retired teacher from Ohio, used to love short sleeves. But over the years, her upper arms started to change.
The softness. The sag. The crepey skin. She called them her “bat wings.”
She avoided mirrors. Covered up at family events. And dreaded summer photos that made her arms the center of her insecurities.
She tried everything:
- Expensive creams that promised miracles — and delivered nothing.
- Online workouts that left her sore for days, and worse — didn’t seem to help at all.
- Flimsy wraps that just made her sweat and feel silly.
“I figured maybe this was just aging,” Susan said.
“That nothing could really help.”
