Is there a way to correct my arms after smartlipo? (Photo)

RealSelfMember3092093
The surgeon removed too much fat, causing depressions, leaving my arms uneven. Stretching one arm backwards tightens the skin, forming lines. A recent revision surgery didn't improve my arms at all; only a small amount of fat was removed from the back. He suggested another correction, but I'm consulting other opinions. How much fat is needed for correction & can the skin be loosened from muscles for better arm flexibility? See pics
