How much is liposuction for arms ?

SarahPhotos and physical exam would be helpful, but for the appropriate candidate, liposuction of the upper arms can be a satisfying and successful procedure. Costs can vary, but liposuction by an experienced plastic surgeon in the NYC region should rune between $3000-$6000. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon, because certification does matter. Good luck!

I appreciate your question.





Cost varies by geographic location, surgeon expertise, OR time, anesthesia, length of procedure etc.  I would recommend that you go to The American Society of Plastic Surgery website and look for a list of board certified plastic surgeons in your area.  You can call their offices in advance and ask for quotes prior to scheduling consultations.





The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.



Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.





Best of luck!

Hello and thank you for your question. Liposuction of arms can work in the right patient.  In other patients, a brachioplasty procedure is better.  Cost varies based on geographic region and surgeon expertise.   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.

Than you for the question. Arm liposuction is a great procedure to remove fat and contour the arms. Skin quality is very important to have a good result and adequate skin tightening. The incisions are very small to introduce the tumescent and lipo cannula, it can be done through one or two small incisions on each arm; one near the elbow and in the armpit. If you think you are a good candidate seek a board certified plastic surgeon in your area who can help you get the results you're looking for. Best of luck!Dr. Khuthaila

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. This is the surgical procedure that revolutionized cosmetic surgery becoming one of the most performed cosmetic procedures. Subcutaneous tissue or fat is removed in order to contour the body in a way that is harmonious and pleasing to the senses. It can be performed in almost all regions of the body such as the neck, chin, abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, arms and ankles. Usually done through a small incision in the skin through which a cannula connected to a vacuum is applied, it can be performed alone or in combination with other procedures. After liposuction your body is going to be really swollen for at least 2 to 4 months after your surgery. It is important for you to wear your compression garment for at least 6 months, the first 3 months 24/7 and then the last 3 months at least 12 hours per day for your body get use to not having the faja for so many time. When you remove it, your body can get swollen and also you can have pain. Remember to also compress your body to prevent a seroma which is an accumulation of liquid that has to be drained, it is hard to touch and also really painful. Bruises are completely normal for almost 3 months from surgery, that’s why is better for you to use a bruising cream and apply it all over your body 3 times a day. To prevent bad circulation and swollen legs, use compression socks. Brazilian butt lift can be performed with the same procedure and for a month it will be swollen and it will drop a little bit without losing it’s shape if you use your garment.. If you’re going to perform liposuction on your inner, outer, anterior, lateral, postetior thighs, be careful and consult with your surgeon what’s best for you, sometimes we have more extra skin than fat, that can cause severe sagginess on our legs, which can be only be reversed performing a thigh lift!

The cost of Lipo to the arms is variable and based upon a number of factors. Skin may sag if you have poor elasticity but skin shrinkage is very common. Incisions are about 1 cm. DrBurnett#realself100

The fee for lipo of the arms will vary from surgeon to surgeon. I can commonly take care of this under local for most patients. Best of luck.

the critical thing is to determine whether you are a viable candidate for the procedure. If you already have skin laxity, this may not be the case.  The incisions are very small and hidden in the axillary and elbow areas.  Fees vary based on the volume of fat to be removed, length of procedure, facility and anesthesiologist.  See a board certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you and make a recommendation.Best wishes,Dr Kraft
