hello, I am a 21 year old girl, I have no children and I have no known particular medical situation. My arms have always been a big complex for me, especially since my upper arms are deformed compared to the rest. I wanted to get informed about liposuction. can I be a good candidate? I am 160 cm tall and I weigh 80 kg. My upper arm circumference is 36cm. Also, I'm afraid of the risks that could be linked, that if there is any organ or nerve damage I could lose the use of my arm? Thank you
