What Would be Best - An Arm Lift or Tuck?

I'm 28 years old. I've suffered with bat wings my whole life. I can never wear anything sleeveless and am extremely paranoid about my arms. I've come to the decision that surgery is the only option for me. Based on my photos is it the best option and will the scarring be worse than the bat wings? I'm desperate for help!

A: Fairly easy solution

You have a limited problem that can be treated with a relatively limited scar approach to remove the excess skin and fatty/?accessory breast tissue.  The scar can be confined mostly to the armpit so that it would not be too visible.  Consult with a plastic surgeon in your area.

Is It Possible to Get a Second Arm Lift?

i had arm lift done 4 years ago due to weight loss, i have lost more weight, i was considering another arm lift. can i get another arm lift? i have loose skin.

A: Yes, commonly post weight loss procedures need repeating

It is quite common that laxity (looseness) of tissues will return following surgery due to a loss of elasticity in the skin from repeated weight gain and loss over the years.  Also, recurrent weight gain can occur and that can lead to further contour concerns that may prompt further surgery.

Yes, arm lift surgery can be repeated as can facelift, breast lift, body and thigh lift.

After Upper Arm Lipo 3 Yrs Ago the Fat Now Feels Soft and Jiggly. Is Brachioplasty Right?

I had liposuction done 3 years ago. My upper arms were big but firm. Now they are softer and jiggly. I regret doing it. Especially since they are still big and when my arms are down they look soft and dimply like cellulite thighs but upper arms. And now the skin droops and almost looks fatter over my elbow. I'm not sure if a Brachioplasty is right because it's not just the skin that is loose, there is a lot of soft fat in there too. What would you recommend?

A: Yes brachioplasty would be best The best way to tighten the skin a d improve your arm contour further a this point is through arm lift or brachioplasty. Sometimes this can be performed with a relatively short scar in the armpit only, but often a longer scar down the arm is needed to achieve maximal improvement.
