Hi, I have lost a bit of weight over the years I am 29 years old. Would I be ok to have Vaser Lipo and avoid an arm lift or do you think I would need an arm lift. Thank you

Answer: Liposuction or arm lift You do not need an arm lift. Vaser liposuction will help tightening your skin too. You are also a good candidate for a non invasive fat reduction like TruSculpt iD which will remove fat and tighten your skin. You definitely do not a permanent scar for the amount of loose skin that you have.

Answer: Candidate for Vaser liposuction or would I need an arm lift arm lift arm reduction brachioplasty arm lift expert brachioplasty Hi User123456xo, Thank you for your question whether you are a candidate for Vaser liposuction or would you need an arm lift or arm reduction (brachioplasty). Thank you for your history and your pictures. First, we should analyze your pictures to determine the best procedure for your arms. You have mild upper 1/3 proximal have cutis pleonasmus (excess skin) and dermatocholosis (loose skin) without stretch marks or stria. The absence of stretch marks suggests that your skin should recoil and contract well after VASER liposuction, Since you are young and without stretch marks, most plastic surgeons would suggest VASER arm liposuction. VASER arm liposuction should be performed in the upper inner 1/3 of the arm and any other areas of your arms that bother you. VASER arm liposuction takes about one to three hours depending on an individual's fat. If you want, arm muscles can be sculpted to achieve muscular arms. VASER arm liposuction is performed under IV sedation, or better yet, general anesthesia. Plan on a seven to ten day recovery. Plan to wear arm garment for six to eight weeks. I hope that I have answered your questions regarding the arm liposuction vs. an arm lift. If you have any more questions regarding the arm lift, arm reduction, brachioplasty or VASER arm lipo, please contact my office. Since a brachioplasty or arm lift surgery is a difficult procedure, please seek an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon with significant experience performing these types of arm lifts. Do your research. Make sure your chosen plastic surgeon has performed at least 100 arm lifts. Make sure they have the before and after pictures to prove it. Carefully examine their before and after pictures and check their reviews on RealSelf. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.
