Are You Hiding Your Upper Arms?

As the warmer weather approaches, tank tops, swimsuits and sundresses are all begging you to ditch the sleeves and bare your arms. But if you have extra skin or fat on your upper arms, you may be clutching your long sleeve shirts and wishing for summer to be over. Don’t miss out of the summer fashions and cool clothing – instead of hiding your arms, consider a cosmetic surgery solution.

Heavy upper arms can be difficult to lose through diet and exercise. For some, it is a genetic issue; many women have ‘matronly’ arms, even when they are at a healthy weight. For others, it could be leftover skin from weight loss or skin that has sagged due to age. Cosmetic surgery options can target this problem area and give you upper arms that are ready to be exposed in those cute summer outfits.

There are two main surgical procedures that can address upper arms that have excess fat or skin: arm lifts and liposuction. An arm lift is better for those that have excess or sagging skin, usually from age or weight loss. The lift can remove the excess skin and tighten the upper arm area. Liposuction is for those who just have extra fat on their arms that they want reduced. Even if you have always had heavy arms, liposuction can permanently remove the fat and create arms that are slender.

Let your arms come out of hiding this summer! Contact your local plastic surgeon that offers arm lifts or liposuction to address that problem area. You will feel more self-confident and finally get to wear the fun summer outfits that you have been avoiding.
