Patient Case #5262

Procedure Information

This 41-year-old woman lost 140 pounds after gastric bypass surgery. Although thrilled with her weight loss, she was left with significant excess skin on her upper arms that she found bothersome.

Dr. Wilson performed an arm lift with liposuction, removing a 10 cm-wide segment of skin from each arm to restore a more contoured shape.

At two months post-op, her arm profile is markedly improved, her clothing fits more comfortably, and she’s very happy with her results. Over time, her scars will continue to fade.
