Laser lipo arms 3 months ago. Are these normal results? (photos)

September 5, 2017
Asked By:MaryNie in Fort Walton Beach, FL

I lost 3 inches on each side. I was very concerned during the procedure about how fast the surgeon was going. I was very clear up front that I didn't want to look like I had surgery. I want to wear short sleeves. Can this be fixed, or am I stuck with it? The lumpy skin and puffy elbows are concerning. Did they suction too close to the surface?
