I've been reading all the different alternatives to tightening loose skin. Would CoolSculpt or something similar help in my case? Or a mini-arm lift which I asked before, but forgot to post picture. Thank you!
Answer: CoolSculpting vs. Liposuction/Arm Lift for Skin Tightening CoolSculpting is targeted at freezing fat cells, and thus has no direct impact on surrounding skin cells. And, as CoolSculpting is a non-surgical, minimally-invasive solution to removing extra bodily fat, skin-tightening results are realistic within a certain range. If you are looking for the most effective solution to tighten loose skin, however, surgical solutions such as liposuction or an arm lift procedure will provide you with more noticeable, effective results. Consult with a board certified physician to determine which approach would be most in line with your expectations.

Answer: Arm lift versus Coolsculpting Thank you for your question and picture. An arm lift would definitely provide you with a much stronger result than Coolsculpting. The arm lift would allow you a much greater degree of skin tightening. You an can also add liposuction to the procedure for additional arm contouring.

Answer: CoolSculpting on Upper arms We have used CoolSculpting very successfully for the arms, with no loose or redundant skin left after treatment. Since the treatment typically only achieves a 20-30% reduction in the treated area, there is typically enough left behind so that the skin doesn’t lose underlying adherence and become saggy. There is no laser or light source associated with the device.
