Hello dear Surgeons, I am 39 years asian female. I used to have skinny arms until 4 years ago I gained 10 kilos. My fat deposit went mostly to my arms. Why does women with big/ fat arms looks huge even the rest of our body are smaller? 2. I saw before and after photos of a lipoed arms but the result is very minimal and unsatisfying. How much fat/ can be removed in the arms or does doctor set a limit? I hope to get doctors response
Answer: Liposuction - Liposuction of the Arms Thank you for your question.There is no absolute limit to the amount of fat that can be removed via liposuction for any given body area since the maximum amount of fat available for removal will vary person to person. The only limit when it comes to fat removal via liposuction is the total amount that surgeons are allowed to remove during a single surgical case (5000cc or 5L). If you are interested in liposuction of your arms and the cosmetic result that you can expect to achieve, I would recommend scheduling a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. A consultation and physical exam will best determine your candidacy for the procedure. Things to consider: amount of fat available for removal, skin tone and cosmetic goal. I hope that you find this helpful and I wish you all of the best!

CONTACT NOW Answer: How much fat can be removed in the arms? Our patients who fear invasive surgery, scarring, and long down time, typically opt for BodyTite to determine if the improvements are satisfactory enough to circumvent extensive excisional surgical procedures. BodyTite has durable long-term results and is safe with respect to risk of burns and temperature sensing. If you have stubborn fat that remains after conservative treatment, liposuction will provide the result you probably seek. Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Answer: How much fat can be removed from arms to make a good difference? The skin tone is a big part of the decision making. Asians usually have good skin tone in their arms. Fat can be removed using a small cannula circumferentially, but also paying attention to highlighting some of the anatomic features like the deltoid area and the biceps to give the are a more athletic look. These details will make the arm look thinner and more attractive. You need to be examined to get the final answer.

Answer: Removing fat from arms The answer depends on how good a skin contour you have. If the skin is elastic, more fat can be removed without much negative effect. If the skin is aging or looser, then less can be removed. Without an exam, it will not be possible to fully evaluate you and give you recommendations.

Answer: Arm Liposuction The amount of fat that can be removed from the arms really depends on each individual patient. On exam, if the arms are full but there is no loose skin, then more fat can be taken out than from a patient with loose and hanging skin. There are some procedures such as BodyTite and Smartlipo which we can also use to help promote skin tightening prior to the liposuction portion of the procedure.It's best to schedule a consult for an examination and to review your options.
