What is Arm Liposuction?
Arm liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess fat from the upper arms to improve their shape and contour. This minimally invasive technique uses suction to extract unwanted fat deposits, resulting in slimmer and more defined arms. The procedure can enhance the appearance of the arms and help achieve a more proportionate and youthful look.
Benefits of Arm Liposuction
- Targeted Fat Removal: Effectively removes stubborn fat deposits from the upper arms, which may be resistant to diet and exercise.
- Improved Arm Contour: Creates a slimmer and more toned appearance by contouring the upper arms.
- Minimally Invasive: Performed with small incisions, resulting in reduced scarring and a shorter recovery time compared to more invasive surgeries.
