About Excess Arm Fat

Some people notice fat deposits on the underside of the upper arms, in the triceps area. These deposits may remain even with healthy eating and regular exercise.

What Causes Arm Fat?

Several factors can influence fat in the upper arms:

  • Genetics: Body type and fat distribution patterns are inherited.

  • Ageing: Changes in skin and tissue over time may affect the appearance of the arms.

  • Lifestyle: Nutrition and activity levels influence overall body structure, which can include the arms.

How to Manage Arm Fat

Strength training and cardiovascular exercise can help support overall fitness and body fat management. Some people find that fat deposits in the arms remain despite these measures. In these cases, surgical options such as liposuction may be discussed during consultation with a registered medical practitioner.

About Arm Fat Liposuction

Vaser liposuction is a cosmetic surgery option for suitable candidates. During your consultation, your practitioner will review your medical history, discuss your objectives, and explain potential risks, recovery, and alternatives. Outcomes vary between individuals, and no result can be guaranteed.

Arm Vaser Liposuction FAQs

Is Vaser liposuction safe?
As with all medical procedures, risks exist. Our clinic follows comprehensive protocols to promote patient safety. Potential complications include infection, swelling, bruising, scarring, and changes in skin sensation, such as numbness or tingling. There is also a risk of asymmetry or uneven results, fluid accumulation, and, in rare cases, blood clots or adverse reactions to anaesthesia. It’s essential to have this procedure performed by a qualified and experienced registered health practitioner who can assess your overall health and medical history and discuss all potential risks with you to ensure a well-informed decision.
Am I a suitable candidate for arm liposuction?
A consultation with a healthcare professional is the best way to determine if this procedure is appropriate for you.
Is arm Vaser liposuction suitable for overweight individuals?
Vaser liposuction is not a weight-loss solution. Overweight individuals may first be advised to pursue weight loss through diet and exercise or other medical interventions before considering liposuction.
