Liposuction #34353

SmartLipo® of the arms, performed on a 33-year-old woman weighing 130 lbs. The laser-assisted liposuction technique uses thermal energy to liquefy fat before removal, which can also encourage the overlying skin to contract. A total of 450cc of fat was removed from the arms. You can see a small entry point near the elbow in the after photo, visible as a faint pink mark at the six-month post-op stage. The upper arm appears noticeably slimmer in the after image, with the tissue sitting closer to the underlying muscle. The after photo is taken at the same angle, making the volume difference straightforward to compare. Results vary from patient to patient. Dr. Emily Wirtz can talk you through whether this approach suits your anatomy.
