Asked By:5392anon

I'm in my 20's and I'm considering liposuction of my arms. I'm 5'10" 155 lbs. Ideal weight. My concern is with as I age, will I have more chance of loose saggy skin because the fat was suctioned out? What are the possible complications with arm lipo? Will I possibly have uneven lump arms?
