Your site shows an age range up to 74 for Lipo. Is 80 not viable for upper arm procedure?

Question

Tania Medina de Garcia, MD · Answer

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
There is no age limit for a mommy makeover, it all depends on your current health condition and your lab tests.  
In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 33 or less.
l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)

In all elective procedures overall health must be considered.  Age is only one factor.  There are many young people who would be turned down for a multitude of reasons.  You may also want to consider other less invasive procedures.  Best to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon to learn your options!

There are no strict age limitations  for any type of surgical procedure.  Some people are in excellent health and are candidates for surgery into their eighties while younger patients who have health problems may not be good candidates.  With elective surgery, safety if the number one priority and must be considered first.  Go see a board certified plastic surgeon with a good idea of what you want changed and they should give you guidance.
