What are the Benefits for Arm Liposuction for Droopy Fat Arms Rather Than a Lift?

Would a Mini Arm Tuck Help Me? I really wanted lipo on my arms but I have stretch marks even though I was never overweight. The doc said my skin is too soft and won't do it but I want to do something. Is there a non-surgical skin tightening option that would work well, or would a mini arm tuck be better? I am young but i have a few spots where my skin just doesn't hold together. I am a performer and want to be proud of the hard training I do. Also, what is an estimate of costs, if possible. Thank you!

A: An Arm Lift / Tuck is NOT the Answer here

An Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) is definitely NOT the answer. You have minimal skin sagging and tightening it at the cost of a permanent scar which may turn out to be ugly is a very poor bargain. I would recommend you consider VASER liposuction which would nicely remove any fat excess and may even shrink some of the skin with minimal scarring.

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: Getting a Second Arm Lift after sagging associated with further Weight Loss

Regarding: "Is It Possible to Get a Second Arm Lift?

the combination of further weight loss and damaged skin which is unable to retract and conform to the new underlying arm will result in sagging even if a good Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) procedure was done. A revision Arm Lift can be done safely. You may wish to consider doing it after you have reached your target weight and have been there for 6 months.
