At Avalon Lipo & Aesthetics, we know many people feel uncomfortable with their upper arms, especially as they get older or lose a lot of weight. Arm Liposuction is a great solution to help you regain confidence and enjoy a more toned arm contour.
This blog will explain everything about Arm Liposuction, from how it works to what to expect during recovery.
What is Arm Liposuction?
Arm Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery procedure designed to remove excess fat cells from the upper arms. While diet and exercise may help reduce fat in other areas, some people struggle with stubborn arm fat that won’t go away. This is where Arm Liposuction can help.
The surgeon makes small incisions and uses a cannula to suction out fat, leaving you with more sculpted, toned arms.
Who is a Good Candidate for Arm Liposuction?
The best candidates for Arm Liposuction are people who are generally healthy and have good skin tone. This means that your skin has enough flexibility to tighten after the fat removal, reducing the chance of sagging.
If you have extra skin after losing a lot of weight, you may need both Arm Liposuction and skin tightening for the best results. Also important is that candidates have realistic expectations and understand that this is not a weight-loss procedure.
The Arm Liposuction Procedure
Before the procedure, Dr. Tirgari will mark the areas on your arms where the fat will be removed. The surgeon gives local anesthesia to ensure your comfort and then makes tiny incisions to insert a cannula. This thin tube breaks up the fat deposits and suctions them out.
At Avalon Lipo & Aesthetics, we use advanced methods like Laser Liposuction and SmartLipo that melt fat with heat and help tighten the skin. This method helps create a smoother, more toned arm contour.
The procedure usually takes 40 minutes to an hour, depending on how much fat needs to be removed. Because the procedure uses local anesthesia, you recover faster and avoid the risks associated with general anesthesia.
Benefits of Arm Liposuction
Arm Liposuction offers many benefits, including:
- Targeted Fat Removal: It removes stubborn fat cells that diet and exercise alone can’t eliminate.
- Minimal Scarring: Small incisions mean that any scars will be tiny and fade over time.
- Skin Tightening: Advanced techniques like SmartLipo also help tighten the skin, giving you a more youthful appearance.
- Fast Recovery: Since we use local anesthesia, the recovery time is shorter compared to traditional liposuction.
- Boost in Confidence: Many patients feel more comfortable wearing sleeveless clothing and showing off their toned arms.
Recovery Time and Post-Procedure Care
After the procedure, you’ll need some time to rest, but most people can return to work within 2-3 days. Dr. Tirgari will give you clear instructions for after the surgery, including how to take care of your incisions and manage any pain with prescribed medications. You may need to wear compression garments to support the healing process and improve your results.
Avoiding heavy lifting or strenuous exercise for at least a few weeks is important. Most patients notice results right away, but the full results show up in about a month as the swelling goes down and your skin adjusts to your new arm shape.
Potential Risks of Arm Liposuction
While Arm Liposuction is generally safe, like any surgical procedure, it does come with potential risks. Some possible complications include infection, scarring, and asymmetry.
A skilled surgeon like Dr. Tirgari reduces these risks by carefully ensuring your safety during the procedure.
