Will liposuction be enough to take care of my batwings? (Photo)

I am paying for layaway package that includes lipo on my arms. Will that alone take care of the bat wings without a lift? I'm 51 yrs old.

It is possible your piercing is still there but you may still have a lot of swelling. It may take up to 6 months for all of the swelling to resolve. Ta;l to your surgeon about your piercing, it may have been compromised during liposuction and you may need to get it re-pierced. Good luck.

Thank you for your pictures and questions. The fact that you "can't get in contact" with your doctor tells me one thing......you chose the wrong doctor. The appearance in the photos is very concerning and also tells me that in choosing your doctor, you probably did not choose a plastic surgeon...
