I have had two consultations on upper arm lifts with Board Certified Plastic Surgeons but neither thought that I had enough fat to justify the long scars. Would I be a candidate for ThermiTight? Would like to know if this is a recommended procedure for chubby arms.
Answer: How effective is ThermiTight on upper arms? Is a Thermitight effective for fatty arms with loose skin? Excellent question. In the selected patients it's an excellent procedure. It does remove fat and tighten the skin. I know of no other procedure that comes close the results with the ThermiTight with the exception of a brachioplasty, which leaves a scar from the axilla to the elbow. It is important to use the ThermiTight probe ircumferentially around the arm to tight all of the skin.You would need to visit a Plastic Surgeon with the Therni equipment and experience to be evaluated personally. the limitations and expectations will be discussed. We do all ThermiTight procedures under local anesthesia and except for the sleeve you must wear, the recovery is mostly uneventful. Women seem to hate their sun damaged arms and excess are weight, and this is s solution for the problem.

Answer: ThermiRF for arm tightening/contouring Without photos, it is difficult to give advice on which treatment would personally benefit you the most. We have been thermi in combination with a number of other treatments such as VASER hi definition or ultherapy for long term permanent results of improvement. I suggest you see an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: ThermiTight for upper arms It is difficult to determine what would be the best procedure for you without pictures or an in-person exam, but in general I recommend ThermiTight for people who have just skin laxity and SmartLipo for people who have both excess fat and skin laxity. ThermiTight uses RF energy to tighten the skin and smartLipo combines liposuction to remove the fat and laser energy to tighten the skin. Both will leave very small scars with minimal downtime. And both procedures will give the best results in people with mild to moderate skin laxity.

Answer: ThermiTight for the arms This procedure is effective and can be a great alternative to having a surgical procedure(Brachioplasty). The ThermiTight uses radiofrequency technology to heat the underlying tissue and stimulate collagen production. It does not primarily treat fat, however, certain temperatures can help to cause some lipolysis, or fat cell destruction. It can take up to 6 months to see maximal results.
