Arm Liposuction With Dr. Hakimi

Arm liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to remove unwanted fat from the upper arms. It focuses on the tricep area between the shoulder and elbow and is highly effective at reducing excess fat and loose skin that makes the arms look loose or flabby. For optimal results, radiofrequency skin tightening is almost always used to help tighten the skin during liposuction.

Arm liposuction can be performed using local anesthesia, so you’ll remain awake during surgery. This shortens the recovery process and helps ensure optimal results. Dr. Hakimi uses advanced techniques for precise fat removal, redefining the contours of your arms. You can expect a firmer, more toned appearance that complements your overall physique.

Armpit Liposuction

To complete your transformation, liposuction can also be performed in the axillary area between the breast and the armpit.This minimally invasive procedure eliminates excess fat that accumulates in the front of the underarms, creating an unflattering bulge. Removing axillary fat can help the upper body appear slimmer and enhance your overall results.

Fat Transfer & Skin Tightening

Don’t let all that removed fat go to waste — if you have other areas of the body you’d like to enhance or accentuate, a fat transfer can be performed to add volume to the breasts, buttocks, face or hands. You can also optimize your results with BodyTite skin tightening, which can reduce sagging in the upper arms to help you achieve a firmer, more toned appearance.

Arm Liposuction Results

Your arm liposuction results will be immediate, transformative and long-lasting with a healthy lifestyle. You’ll notice slimmer contours right after surgery, which will continue to improve as swelling decreases. Your final results will emerge within three months, restoring your confidence and revealing elegantly toned arms you’ll be eager to show off.

Dr. Hakimi’s meticulous techniques ensure a natural-looking outcome with minimal scarring. Incisions are very small and placed in discreet areas that are virtually undetectable when standing with your arms at your sides. No drains or stitches are typically needed, but you will be required to wear a compression garment to help your arms maintain their new shape.

What to Expect During Your Procedure

01 // The Process

When performed as a standalone procedure, arm liposuction can be completed in just an hour or two using local anesthesia. You’ll be given medication that makes you sleepy and relaxed. Then, Dr. Hakimi will numb the treatment area using a tumescent solution and make two small incisions in the elbow and armpit, inserting a thin, hollow tube called a cannula to dislodge and eliminate excess fat.

The entire process is performed with precision and care, sculpting improved contours that restore your confidence. If you have a significant amount of loose arm skin, Dr. Hakimi may recommend adding radiofrequency (RF) skin tightening to your treatment plan for the best results. After your procedure, you’ll be able to return home and begin the recovery process.

Arm Liposuction Recovery

Recovering from arm liposuction is generally quicker than more invasive procedures. You can expect some bruising and swelling that will gradually subside over the next week.. Most patients are able to return to work and other light activities within a few days, although more strenuous exercise and heavy lifting can be resumed after two weeks.

After your procedure, you’ll be instructed to wear compression garments to promote healing and encourage the skin to conform to your new contours. Dr. Hakimi will provide you with an aftercare plan to follow at home and schedule a follow-up to check on your recovery progress. If you have any questions or concerns following surgery, don’t hesitate to contact our office.

FAQ

Are the Results of Arm Lipo Permanent?

The results of arm liposuction are long-lasting and can be considered permanent with a healthy diet and lifestyle. Fat doesn’t come back once it’s removed, but the remaining fat cells could still expand if you gain a significant amount of weight, negatively impacting your results.

How Is Arm Liposuction Different from an Arm Lift?

While both procedures improve the appearance of the arms, an arm lift specifically addresses sagging and excess skin, which liposuction does not. Arm liposuction is primarily used to remove fat from the arms but may not sufficiently tighten the skin if elasticity is poor. If you have significant sagging in the arms, Dr. Hakimi may recommend adding an arm lift or RF skin tightening to your surgical plan for results that look balanced and natural.

Will I Have Visible Scarring After Arm Liposuction?

Arm liposuction involves two small, mole-sized entry points in the elbow and armpit that result in little to no visible scarring. Once healed, they fade and become less noticeable.

Can Arm Lipo Be Combined With Other Procedures?

If you struggle with excess fat in the arms but are satisfied with your overall body contours, arm liposuction can provide great results as a standalone procedure. However, if you have other areas you’d like to address, it can also be performed as part of a total body liposuction treatment plan to help you achieve comprehensive and proportionate results.
