Can SmartLipo tighten the upper arms?

Smart Lipo can definitely tighten skin, but not if "bat wings" are present.  Excess skin of the upper arm can be removed via the axilla or armpit; if required, skin can be removed from the armpit to the elbow. Finally, a combination of liposuction, Smart Lipo and skin resection can all be performed simultaneously as indicated.
