Arm fat: can you get lipo on the arm without the lift?

Absolutely- I routinely use Vaser ultrasound liposuction and/or Smart Lipo laser to reduce arms and tighten skin without brachiaplasty scars.An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon who performs these procedures is recommended to confirm you are a candidate as well as discuss your options and expectations.

Thank you for your question,but without any pictures it is difficult to evaluate if you would need a lift, consult in person with a board certified PS.

Hello and thank you for your question.  The
best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation.  If you have good skin elasticity of your arms, then liposuction can be beneficial.  However, if you have excess skin laxity, then an arm lift would be needed.   Make sure you specifically look
at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery
performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.   The most
important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend
that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who
can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.
