Arm Fat and Loose Skin? (photo)

Thank you for your question about whether you would benefit from arm liposuction, a formal arm lift, or brachioplasty. Thank you also for your question regarding breast augmentation and whether your appearance would improve with a breast lift or mastopexy. All these questions can be answered with a thorough physical examination. This could be done either physically in the office or virtually. Without pictures, it is difficult for me to answer your questions. However, if you're young and have not lost that much weight, less than twenty pounds, you may be able to have optimal results with arm liposuction. If you do not have many breasts sagging or hanging, you may get ideal results with a moderate breast implant. The breast implant can also serve to lift the breast. However, if you have lost over 100 pounds and have a significant amount of loose skin, you need an arm lift. Depending on the amount of skin will determine if you need an axillary or crescent arm lift or a formal brachioplasty, where an incision is made from the armpit to the elbow. Often the arm and the breast surgery can be combined in one surgery. Please seek an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon.
I specialize in arm lifts. I hope that I have answered your questions regarding the arm reduction. If you have any more questions regarding the arm lift, arm reduction, brachioplasty or arm crease fat grafting, please contact my office. Since a brachioplasty or arm lift surgery is a difficult procedure, please seek an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon with significant experience performing these types of arm lifts. Do your research. Make sure your chosen plastic surgeon has performed at least 100 arm lifts. Make sure they have the before and after pictures to prove it. Carefully examine their before and after pictures and check their reviews on RealSelf.  Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.

Hi, how are you, for some reason I can not see the photos ... in fact if they are necessary to evaluate if liposuction or brachioplasty is indicated .... If you have lost weight and you have fluctuated I recommend that you stabilize in weight at least In 3 consecutive months to consider surgery ... In fact the surgery with breast implants can improve its appearance ... Any doubt let me know, greetings you have a great day ...!

Although your history and pictures are helpful, it's virtually impossible to make a specific recommendation without a physical examination. Under these circumstances, you might be a candidate for a full brachioplasty, mini brachioplasty or liposuction.For these reasons, it's important  to consult a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this area who can perform a physical examination. This surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses your anatomic deformity and achieves your aesthetic goals.
