Should I consider lipo or CoolSculpting for my arms? Help - what are the pros and cons of both?

2016TurnUp
I am a 50 year old woman. I weigh about 160 lbs and wear a size 9-10 dress. I would like to reduce the size of my upper arms. I have a little laxity in my arms but not a lot. Dont think I'm ready for an arm lift just yet. I am concerned the lipo might leave me with unevenness were as Coolsculpting might require multiple treatments.
