I've had a few in-person consultations, and three surgeons have given me the suggestion to get Lipo with RF skin tightening. And two of suggested arm lift w/bra fat lipo (one suggested full arm lift, and two suggested, short scar arm lift with lipo+mode on my arms and armpit brought that area). I'm 5'4" late 40's at 138 pounds. I do a lot of weight lifting and running. Not sure which direction to go. Women on my mom's side of family gain a lot of fat in the arms compared to other body parts.

Answer: Arm lift options. Each option you mentioned has different good and bad things about them. For example, a more aggressive full brachioplasty is the most invasive and leaves a long scar on the arm. However, it will be the most reliable way to provide a significant result. The least invasive option will give the least impressive result, but you will avoid more visible scarring. You can base your decision on how much of the “bad” you are willing to accept to get the “good” you are hoping for provided by a particular procedure.

Answer: Arm lift and/or lipo Dear RenovationProject415, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
