How many inches (typically) come off of upper arms after lyposuction? Any range you can give me? Thanks!

This will depend upon your preoperative fatty content of the arms and the amount of fat the surgeon can remove.Kenneth Hughes, MDBeverly Hills, CA

Thank you for your question.  It is impossible to give you a particular amount of reduction as each individuals' arm will be comprised of different amounts of bone, muscle, and adipose tissue.  in general only with an arm lift will significant amounts of skin or tissue be removed.  As will all liposuction cases, there must be a balance in removing enough fat that the arm is thinned, but not so much that it leaves you with excess skin that will need to be removed in a separate procedure.  Hope that this helps.

Hello dear, thanks for your post and provided information as well.
Patients should attempt to be at their goal weight when undergoing
liposuction to achieve the best results. After surgery, patients are
encouraged to maintain or lose 5% of body weight with proper diet and
exercise as liposuction is not a form of weight lose, but a surgical
approach to remove fat cells.Good luck :)

Liposuction will not take inches off of any arm. It will provide some circumferential reduction but at best will not take more than an inch or so off these measurements for most patients.

I don't think there is a typical correction.   The amount of fat you have in your arms and the quality of your skin will determine how much of an improvement you can expect.    Make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to find out if your goals are realistic  and what your options are.   Best of luck

There is no real set number to say how narrow the arms can get. Realistically you can thin the fatty content to some degree but the shape of the arm is also the result of the bone and overlying musculature as well as the skin and fat.  Best to be seen in person to give a good guestimate to the improvement.
