Before and after liposuction of the arms in a 39-year-old woman. At the same time as a breast augmentation and liposuction of her abdomen and flanks, she wanted to have “less fatty arms.” She exercised regularly but felt that her arms didn’t look that way.
Liposuction permanently removed excess fat from her upper arms through several tiny incisions that were hidden in skin creases at her elbows and in her armpits. After surgery, she wore a compression garment or tight workout long-sleeved top for six weeks.
Long-term follow up photos are shown 2 years after surgery, with her final results and a more slender upper arm contour.
