Upper Arm Liposuction

Arm is composed of muscles, tissues, skin and fats. Upper arm liposuction is the procedure that sucks the fats out of the area. One of the effects of arm liposuction is the reshaping of the arm, giving it more toned and proportioned quality. There are several types of upper arm liposuction. One of these is the laser liposuction which dissolves the fats and tightens the skin around the arm. The fats beneath the skin layers are being softened and are being liquefied. Once it is melted, it is sucked out the system by a small tool called cannula. The cannula is inserted in the skin by small or large incisions depending on the type of liposuction. The procedure usually lasts for about one to two hours depending on the amount of fats to be excreted.

 A patient who will undergo this procedure will need to take anesthetic drugs and sedatives to cover up the pain. Blood loss is one of the factors that are most commonly associated with the arm liposuction.

Through a laser upper arm liposuction, the scars that are left after the operations are usually minimal compared to other types of liposuction.

The recovery period is also usually just a short duration. Special care and attention are needed for a post surgery treatment. Rigorous activities are not advisable. The patient who underwent upper arm liposuction may feel a heavy feeling as if he just performed weight lifts. The recovery will last for about four days up to one week. Swelling and bruises on the upper arm are normal. The scars will disappear and with the help of anti-scarring ointments, they will be gone in less than weeks!

A patient will be asked to wear compression wrap. It will help the arms heal faster and will also help in the reshaping of the contour of the arms. After several weeks or maybe a month, your arm will go back to its normal condition less the fats!
