I've had pretty muscular arms my whole life ( I've had it from my dad) and I hate because I'm uncomfortable wearing sleeveless shirt and dresses. I also feel like it makes me look less feminine. Is there any surgeon out there who can alter the look of my arms and make it look more full and woman-like? Thanks.

Answer: Making Muscular Arms Smaller
Unless you have almost no body fat, the arms can be made smaller. As a bodybuilder, I do see people at 4% bodyfat who do not have enough fat to liposuction. However, these represent a small fraction of a percent of patients. Find the plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of liposuction procedures each year.

Answer: Possible to reduce arms that are too muscular?
It would be difficult to answer this question without photos and examining you. Muscle tissue cannot be reduced, but it may be possible to contour the arms in such a way to make them appear less muscular. See a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns and see if there is anything possible to soften the look of your arms
