What is the best non-surgical treatment for saggy arms (bat wings) and skin tightening of the forearms and thighs - including knees? I am 5'3 and weigh 117 lbs. So, weight is not my issue. I'm 65 and simply want some skin tightening. And, possible cellulite removal.

Answer: Removing Excess Skin and Fat from Your Arms and Thighs Thank you for your question regarding what to do with your arms and thighs to remove excess skin and fat. The only definitive way to remove excess skin is with a surgical incision. To treat your arms, I would suggest a brachioplasty. A brachioplasty is an arms reduction, which combines arm liposuction and typically an incision from the armpit to the elbow. If the forearms bother you sometimes, an incision is extended from the elbow down the elbow to the forearm to take care of excess forearm skin. To address the thighs. I would suggest thigh liposuction and a thigh reduction. During a thigh reduction, typically, an incision is made from the groin to the knee, and a larger elliptical fat area is removed. I would not suggest combing the arms and thigh surgery because the recovery is extremely difficult. I suggest you perform the thigh surgery first and then approximately 1-2 months later have the arm surgery. Good luck. Thank you for your question regarding what to do with your arms and thighs to remove excess skin and fat. I specialize in reconstructive plastic surgery after weight loss. If you have any more questions regarding the lower body lift, 360 circumferential lower body lift, belt lipectomy, belt abdominoplasty, or belt dermolipectomy please contact my office. Since the body lift is a big procedure, please seek an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon with significant experience performing the lower body lift. Do your research. Make sure they have performed at least 100 circumferential lower body lift surgeries and have the before and after pictures to prove it. Carefully examine their before and after pictures and check their reviews on RealSelf. If you cannot find an experienced, lower body lift surgeon in your neighborhood, consider traveling out of state if you must. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.
