I have lost 125 lbs. I am unhappy with my arms. They rub me. And just with how they look overall. Am I a good candidate for an arm lift or would coolscuplting work for me? I am 30. 5'5 And I weigh 179 now, But working on losing about 15 more lbs before anything is done. Thank you.

Answer: Arm lift, or CoolSculpting? Thank you for your question and congrats on your weight loss. Based on your photos, you would be a good candidate for an arm lift once you reach your stable ideal weight. The extent of excess skin that you have would require an arm lift, not cool sculpting. Be sure to consult with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Answer: Cool Sculpting or brachioplasty? Losing 125 pounds is a remarkable achievement.You should be congratulated. Considering the amount of weight you have lost and what I can see from your pictures it seems that your skin has done quite well. Judging from your photographs it appears that the major problem is excess skin not excess fat. I am certain that you would be disappointed with the results of any noninvasive procedure. A well designed and well executed brachioplasty would be your best option.It will be important to consult with a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery who performs brachioplasty on a regular basis. Although achieving an optimal scar in this area is challenging an experienced surgeon will now how to customize the procedure to your needs and hopefully provide you with the best outcome possible. Good luck
