What is Arm Liposuction?

Arm liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that is designed to remove excess fat from the upper arms, resulting in a more toned and sculpted appearance.

It’s a popular procedure among both men and women who are looking to improve the appearance of their arms, whether it’s to feel more confident in sleeveless clothing or to regain a youthful appearance.

Arm liposuction can be performed on the entire arm, or it can be targeted to specific areas such as the upper arm, posterior arm, or armpit. The procedure can take anywhere from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours, depending on the amount of fat that needs to be removed and the complexity of the case.

Benefits of Arm Liposuction

Arm liposuction can offer several benefits for individuals who are looking to improve the appearance of their arms. Some of the benefits include:

Slimmer appearance: Arm liposuction can help remove excess fat and tissue from the arms, resulting in a slimmer and more toned appearance.

Improved self-confidence: By removing excess fat and tissue, arm liposuction can help improve self-confidence and self-esteem, allowing individuals to feel more comfortable in their own skin.

Better fit in clothing: Arm liposuction can help improve the fit of clothing, especially in the upper arm area, which can be a problem area for many people.

More defined shape: Arm liposuction can help create a more defined shape and contour to the arms, which can be especially beneficial for individuals who have excess fat in this area. Loose skin can also be addressed when liposuction is combined with other minimally invasive procedures like BodyTite.

Improved overall health: While arm liposuction probably does not directly enhance your health, it can often inspire patients to kick start their fitness journeys by removing excess fat . These lifestyle changes can help improve overall health and reduce the risk of certain health problems, such as heart disease and diabetes.

Minimally invasive: Arm liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure, which means that it requires only small incisions and can be performed under local anesthesia, resulting in less pain and scarring.

Quick recovery: Arm liposuction has a relatively quick recovery time, with most individuals being able to return to their normal activities within a couple days.

Permanent results: The results of arm liposuction are generally permanent, as long as a healthy lifestyle is maintained.

Personalized Care

At our practice, we emphasize personalized care and attention to detail. Dr. Smith will work with you to create a customized treatment plan that meets your specific needs and goals.

Natural-Looking Results

Dr. Smith is known for his ability to achieve natural-looking results that enhance your appearance without looking artificial. He’ll work with you to create a natural-looking shape and contour to your arms that complements your body.

Arm Liposuction Procedure

The arm liposuction procedure takes place in our state-of-the-art surgery center in New York City’s Ritz Tower. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, which means you’ll be able to go home the same day.

Before the procedure, Dr. Smith will administer local anesthesia to numb the area. This will ensure that you feel minimal discomfort during the procedure. You may also be given medication to help you relax.

Once the area is numb, Dr. Smith will make small incisions in the skin, usually in the armpit or elbow area. These incisions are strategically placed to minimize scarring and ensure that they are as inconspicuous as possible.

Next, Dr. Smith will insert the cannula, which is a small, hollow tube, into the incision. He’ll then move the cannula back and forth, using a gentle, wavelike motion to loosen and remove excess fat.

The procedure typically takes 45 minutes to 1.5 hours, depending on the amount of fat that needs to be removed and the complexity of the case. Once the procedure is complete, Dr. Smith will close the incisions with sutures and apply a compression garment to help reduce swelling and promote healing.

After the procedure, you may experience some mild discomfort, bruising, and swelling. This is normal and should subside within a few weeks. You’ll be given pain medication to help manage any discomfort, and you’ll be advised to rest and avoid strenuous activities for several days.

Dr. Smith will also provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for your arms during the recovery period. This may include wearing the compression garment for several weeks, avoiding heavy lifting or bending, and keeping the incisions clean and dry.

During the first few days after the procedure, you may experience some discomfort, bruising, and swelling. This is normal and should subside within a week or two. You’ll be given pain medication to help manage any discomfort, and you’ll be advised to rest and avoid heavy lifting or bending.

It’s important to follow Dr. Smith’s instructions carefully during the recovery period to ensure proper healing and optimal results. This may include wearing a compression garment for several weeks, avoiding certain activities, and keeping the incisions clean and dry.

After a few weeks, the swelling and bruising should start to subside, and you’ll begin to see the results of your arm liposuction. Your arms will look more toned and sculpted, and you’ll feel more confident and comfortable in your own skin.

It’s important to note that the results of arm liposuction can take several months to fully reveal themselves. It’s also important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, to maintain the results of your procedure.

Cost of Arm Liposuction

The cost of arm liposuction can vary depending on several factors, including the location where the procedure is performed, the expertise and qualifications of the plastic surgeon, the extent of the procedure, and the type of anesthesia used.

On average, the cost of arm liposuction can range from $6,000 to $12,000. However, some factors can increase the cost, such as:

Additional procedures: If you choose to have additional procedures, such as a breast augmentation or abdominoplasty, at the same time as your arm liposuction, the cost will be higher.
