Hi I haven't had an armlift, but I have just had my thighs lifted and lipo done. What i can see in your photo is the same thing i had on my inside calf where there was a stitch put where they did lipo around my knees. I had 2 blood blisters on each leg....yes, they are blisters. Apparently when they put the sticky dressing on over the stitch, when we swell up it pulls the skin and produces blisters. Mine were sore and itchy. I am thinking this is what you have as it looks the same. Let me know what your doc says.
