The part i'm holding in the picture is a pocket of fat that droops on the side of my bra. Will i need a 2nd procedure for that or will the arm lift take care of it?

Answer: Arm lift Dear omnaya, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would be a good candidate for arm lift. However, it would not treat your side bra. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Extended arm lift for side bra area I like to address some of the axilla (side area of bra) by extending the arm incision around the arm pit and side of breast when doing an extended arm lift. Vaser ultrasound liposuction can also address back and side bra area without cutting out skin. This will take out most of that skin, however, you may require a formal back lift afterwards. Unfortunately, body contouring, especially after large weight loss, commonly requires multiple stages to best treat areas. 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.
