Sometimes my arms don't fit into long sleeves. I realize that an arm lift would be easiest and most effective, but I just can't afford the downtime. Besides, cutting me up for vanity's sake would leave me with two huge scars, which I'd be self-conscious about, so I need a Plan B. I don't hope to look like a toned athlete or anything but are there any options that would reduce my arm circumference and make them look better?

Answer: Arm surgery Based on your photos the best surgical option for you would be an arm lift, but since you feel that is not a good choice for you, you may consider liposuction. Be aware that liposuction does remove excess fat, but does not remove skin so you may be left with skin that appears looser or saggier after the procedure. The scars from this procedure are very small and can be well hidden. Non surgical options would include diet and exercise to try to tone the area.Best wishes.

Answer: Arms Smart lipo or Vaser ultrasound liposuction will reduce the fat and tighten the skin- not to the degree of an arm lift with skin removal, but usually enough of an improvement. An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon who performs these procedures is recommended.
