I used to have triceps, now I have wings of saggy arm flab that won't go away. I've been trying to tone this area for months with no results, and I'm now considering taking more drastic action. I'd prefer a non-surgical option but am open to whatever will work. Please help!

Answer: How to get rid of flabby arms? If you are not finding success in contouring your arms despite weight training, physical activity, and weight stability, then you will most likely need an arm lift. The arm lift provides the most contouring of any procedure on the arms, especially when described as "wings of saggy arm flab". Non-surgical devices can cause small amounts of arm tightening, but cannot correct the "wings of flab". Liposuction would only make the sagging tissues thinner but the tissue would still sag. Brachioplasty is your best option.

Answer: arm lift arm reduction brachioplasty arm liposuction plastic surgery flabby arms bat wings Without pictures and a thorough physical examination, your question is difficult answer. However, I would suggest to continue exercising and dieting for another 4 to 6 months.If you do not have your desired arm results, I would then suggest considering arm surgery. In my plastic surgery practice, there are four types of arms.Type 1 patients have a mild amount of arm fat. Typically, these patients are best treated with arm liposuction. Type 2 patients have a moderate amount of arm skin and fat. This excess arm skin and fat extends from the armpit approximately 4 to 6 inches down the arm. Typically, these patients are best treated with an arm lift with arm liposuction. This type of arm lift is called a modified or mini-arm lift. Type 3 patients have a moderate amount of arm skin and fat from the armpit to the elbow. Typically, these patients are best treated with arm liposuction and excision of arm skin and fat from the armpit to the elbow. Type 4 patients have moderate to severe amount of arm skin and fat from the armpit to the wrist. Typically, these patients are best treated with arm and forearm liposuction. At the same surgery, this is followed by excision of upper arms and forearm skin and fat. This is accomplished through an incision from the armpit to the elbow to the wrist.
