Vaser Liposuction ( Ultrasonic) for ARM LIPOSUCTION works great.

Full recovery to no soreness takes 3 to 4 months but remember wound... more

Arm liposuction

Liposuction of the upper arms works well if you have good skin tone with little excess skin or stretch marks. The skin on the inner arm is very delicate so you want to be sure the liposuction is not done too aggressively.

It does appear that your are a candidate for liposuction of the upper arms.  Though there are many forms of lipo (IE laser) they all work in a similar fashion and all should give you a good result.  Awake tumescent liposuction of the upper arms is a quick and safe procedure and it what we usually recommend for liposuction of limited areas.

Upper Arm Liposuction

Although it is very difficult to tell from your photographs, it looks like you should be able to have an improvement in the size and the shape of your arms through liposuction alone.  Only through an in-person consultation can one appreciate your skin quality and whether you would need to have skin removed. This surgery can be done with sedation and local anesthetic to limit the cost and normally an affordable procedure. Contact a board certified plastic surgeon in your area... more

Arm liposuction works.

Hi. Hard to judge from one picture, but it looks like you get a good result. Delicate technique is very important to avoid irregularities.  We use tumescent liposuction with tiny cannulas (3.0 mm and 2.4 mm). see video

Generally, the “Ideal” liposuction patient candidates present with isolated diet and exercise resistant adipose tissue collection, with overlying skin that demonstrates adequate elasticity ( to “bounce back” after the adipose tissue has been removed).

Liposuction of upper arms

You will probably benefit by upper arm liposuction as there is an abundance of fat in the tricpes.  Some or most if not all the skin may contract and give you a wonderful result, but realize that some people have inelastic skin that does not retract and the fat may be diminished but the skin may hang.  If this is the case, then an arm lift is in order but unfortunately, this means that there will be a large, and possibly, unsightly scar.  Lipousction and Thermage may be... more

Lipo upper arms

I suspect there will be extra skin and though you are young it may contract somewhat but I would do lipo and if the skin is too much you can always do a skin reduction but if you start out that way and get bad scars they are yours forever.
