Will a Full Arm Lift with Lipo Be Able to Make my Arms Look Alot Smaller and Proportionate to my Body Size?

              An extended arm lift will address the loose skin and will result in a much nicer arm contour.  You will have to decide if the surgery is worth it to you.  Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of body contouring procedures each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Thank you for your question about the possibility of achieving smaller, proportionate arms through a full arm lift combined with liposuction.
Certainly, a full arm lift, or brachioplasty, is designed to address excess skin and fat in the upper arm region. By incorporating liposuction, the surgeon can meticulously sculpt and contour the arm to remove excess fat, making it appear more streamlined. Typically, this procedure, performed under general anesthesia, lasts about 3-4 hours and is an outpatient process.
While the precise reduction will vary for each patient, many individuals experience a size reduction in their arms by about 50-60%. In addition to reshaping the upper arm, there are techniques to manage excess skin near the elbow, either extending the incision down the forearm or behind the elbow, ensuring a smooth, natural contour.
However, it's essential to have realistic expectations. The main goal of a brachioplasty with liposuction is to achieve an arm size and shape that harmonizes with the rest of your body. It doesn't alter the forearm or torso.
Before moving forward, it's crucial to have a thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. They can provide a more accurate assessment based on your individual anatomy and desired outcomes.
I hope this provides clarity on how an arm lift with liposuction can make your arms appear smaller and more proportionate to your body. Best wishes on your journey towards achieving your desired look.
Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen

Your age may allow you to do a lesser procedure, but this will depend on the texture of your skin on the upper arms.  If you do not have significant stretch marks, which seems to be the case from your pictures, then I would suggest just doing lipo.  I have done many where there was enough tightening from the lipo that a lift with all its scar risks wasn't necessary.  Your age may give you different options compared to someone twice your age.

You should have good result from the procedure you describe as long as the incision extends down the inner arm toward your elbow. I do not believe a short scar technique will accomplish the goals you describe. Treat the scar post-operatively with silicone sheeting if your surgeon agrees. I have had good improvement in brachioplasty scars using this product.

Only down side of arm lift with liposuction of arms is that this operation leaves behind a permanant scar on inner arms or back of arms depending upon surgeon's preference for this operation.  If you are willing to accept this scar in exchange for improved shape and size of arms you should proceed with brachioplasty (cosmetic surgery of arms).

Liposuction can be extended to your upper body to streamline those areas of your body.
