I'm concerned with scarring - Is an arm lift the only solution for my arms? (Photos)

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

In my experience, many similar patients avoid arm lift and achieve nice contour with Vaser ultrasound liposuction.

This will remove stubborn fat, reducing arms and tightening skin (to a degree) without a large scar from skin removal. There is always some left to right differences anatomically before and after any procedure, but better symmetry is always a part of the plan.

An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon who performs these procedures is recommended to confirm you are a candidate as well as discuss your options and expectations.

Based on your posted photos, you could try liposuction with plasma to see if enough skin tightening is effective expect that feed range from $5000-$8000. A full break plasty gives you the best results but there is a permanent scar that you have to be OK with. That fee is $8000-$10,000. Best virtual consult with for better understanding.

Good morning. Given your measurements and concerns, VASER liposuction would be an excellent option, as it allows for precise fat removal and also helps moderately tighten the skin, with minimal scarring (only small incisions). In your case, since your sagging isn't extreme, VASER can offer a noticeable improvement without the need for extensive scarring or the risk of asymmetry associated with more invasive surgery.
