I posted a question about my arms previously but inadvertently left out what may be important information. I have lost a considerable amount of weight over the past 3 years. Approx a year and a half ago, prior to weight loss, I had lipo on my upper arms. Now my skin is saggy and lumpy/rippling. Is there a treatment that could improve the appearance of my arms, I can almost deal with the sag but the rippling really bothers me
Hello - thinking of getting an arm lift. The surgeon I am leaning towards uses drains, which I am cool with b/c I think it will help reduce swelling and tension on the scar. Is compression still necessary? I had a thigh lift 4 years ago and my surgeon said he doesn't find it makes a difference in recovery. I would LOVE to not wear compression. To me it is always painful and very uncomfortable. How critical is this towards recovery?
Hello, Hypothetically speaking, what happens if you have larger arms and have lipo and skin removal to the upper arm which then becomes smaller than your forearm? Would a plastic surgeon realize this could be a possibility as theyre performing lipo & brachioplasty to your arms or would it be a surprise once Im healed and notice my forearm circumference is larger than my upper arms? Would I need to then come back for forearm lipo and lift? Ive read on this website that forearms are not a popular body region for lifts/lipo. What can be done for the forearms?
I had arm Lipo with Renuvion in November 2023. I am very happy with the results except for this small area of loose skin where my upper arm meets my armpit. Would I be a candidate for a mini arm lift or is there another procedure to remove this small portion of loose skin? It is there when I raise my arms above my head, and the attached pictures are of me flexing and not flexing.
I have stretch marks all over my upper arms from weight gain. I've noticed that if I pull on the skin that they become less noticeable. I'm open to getting a mini arm lift but not a full one. Is a mini arm lift enough to reduce the appearance of my stretch marks?
Hello! Just checking in to see what you think would be the best procedure to fix my arms. My mom's arms started to get bumpy and loose at 40 as well. I'd love to treat them, but not if it means a big scar down the back. Any help would be much appreciated. My arms were very toned until last year. Thank you!
Hi! I have larger arms, which doesnt bother me as much as them folding over when theyre resting by my side. Even when Ive been on the smaller side (size 12), I had this issue in high school. Im wondering if lipo with rejuvion would work or if I need a full arm lift? Again, not really self-conscious about my arms being bigger, just the hang near the armpit that creases.
