Can I get liposuction after having an arm lift?

Dear Valentinaavm,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, a previous arm lift is not a contraindication for liposuction. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Dear Valentinaavm,

Thank you for your question. I understand your concern and desire for slimmer and more contoured arms.

It's generally possible to have liposuction after an arm lift. However, the timing and the specific techniques used would depend on various factors including your overall health, the state of your healing from the arm lift, and the amount of residual fat and skin elasticity.

Morpheus 8 and BodyTite are both treatments that can help tighten the skin after liposuction. Morpheus 8 uses fractionated radio-frequency to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin. BodyTite also uses radio-frequency technology and can assist in melting fat as well as tightening skin.

However, each person's situation is unique, and it's essential to have a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can assess your individual circumstances and make recommendations based on your goals, the condition of your skin, and other factors.

Remember, it's also important to have realistic expectations. While these procedures can help improve the contour and appearance of your arms, they may not lead to "perfect" results.

Again, it's crucial that you discuss your desires and concerns with your surgeon, who can provide you with the most accurate and personalized advice.

Thank you for reaching out, and I wish you the best of luck on your journey to achieving the results you desire.

Sincerely, Dr. Katzen
