What Is Upper Arm Liposuction?
Upper arm liposuction is a cosmetic surgery technique, specially designed to remove stubborn fat deposits from the upper arms, the area between the shoulder and elbow. It is ideal for reshaping and toning the arms to attain a tighter, slimmer contour that is natural and harmonious.
It specifically targets those old and annoying fat deposits that don’t improve with diet and exercise. Gentle liposuction on the inner arms smooths out waves and bumps on the skin, as well as eliminate unsightly skin irregularities. It is popular among both men and women who want to improve the appearance of their arms, whether to feel more confident in sleeveless clothing or to regain a youthful look.
At Millennial Plastic Surgery, each arm liposuction is personalized. Every treatment is specifically designed to target the amount of excess fat or flab in your arms and achieve your individual aesthetic goals.

Flabby arms make it hard to wear the sleeveless dresses and tank tops you want without being self-conscious about your arms. And that arm flab is stubbornly resistant to efforts at toning, like with isometrics or kettle bells. If you’re normal weight and all your attempts at diet and exercise don’t seem to work, invisible arm lift surgery is a sensible option.
Why Should I Get Arm Liposuction?
Arm liposuction is one of the most commonly performed transformative procedures. It offers amazing results with a relatively low risk when performed by a qualified surgeon.
It is a good option because:
- It creates tighter, stronger-looking arms.
- It just uses a small incision, which leaves minimal scarring.
- It requires local anesthesia.
- You can go home the same day.
- It requires a short recovery period.
- It delivers lasting results with no need for follow-ups.
Arm liposuction procedure removes fat for good and offers permanent effects, for as long as your body weight remains stable. It is the ideal choice for achieving the defined arms you seek.
Arm liposuction can also be combined with other cosmetic lipo procedures to achieve desired outcomes, such as:
- Chin lipo
- Thighs liposuction
- Love handles liposuction
- Abdomen and waist liposuction
- Back liposuction
- FUPA surgery
- Chest liposuction
- Hip liposuction
- Lipo 360
With his skill and expertise, Dr. Shokrian has perfected a combination of methods to sculpt and define your arms in harmony with your overall silhouette. He focuses not only on removing fat but also on precisely shaping your entire upper arm area for a truly transformed and natural-looking outcome.
Different Types of Liposuction Used for Arm Lifts?
Your surgeon may combine an arm lift with liposuction to remove excess fat and improve contour. The type of liposuction they choose will depend on your skin quality, fat distribution, and expected results.
Here are the main types of liposuction used for arm lifts:
- Traditional liposuction (Suction-Assisted Liposuction – SAL)
A cannula is moved back and forth to break up and remove fats using suction. This is the original and most commonly used liposuction method, often combined with skin removal in arm lifts for the best results.It is most suited for patients requiring the removal of larger fat deposits.
- Tumescent liposuction
A liquid anesthetic solution is first injected into the treatment area before fat removal. This method is considered the safest as it reduces bleeding and bruising and also makes the removal of fat easy. It can be performed alone or combined with other techniques for desired outcomes. - Ultrasound-Assisted liposuction (UAL)
The surgeon uses ultrasound energy to liquefy fat before it is suctioned out, using a small cannula. This type of liposuction works well for fibrous or dense fat, leading to precise contouring.Vaser Liposuction is an advanced and well-known form of ultrasound-assisted liposuction. It only breaks down and removes fats while leaving surrounding tissues, nerves, and blood vessels intact.
Laser energy is used to melt fat before it is removed, using a small cannula. This procedure is often used for small fat deposits or mild skin laxity.Laser-assisted liposuction is popular for stimulating collagen production and providing mild, immediate skin-tightening results. However, the degree of tightening varies from patient to patient, depending on factors such as age, skin quality, and amount of laxity.
Dr. Shokrian primarily uses VASER technology for eliminating fat with a custom-made cannula. He understands your need for quick, non-invasive fat removal with less trauma and inflammation to the surrounding tissue. You can look forward to faster recovery, reduced discomfort, and beautifully sculpted arms, following a smooth surgery.

What to Expect During Your Arm Liposuction Consultation?
During your arm liposuction consultation, Dr. Shokrian and Dr. Elfar review your medical history, medications, and overall lifestyle, and discusses your reasons and vision to create a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your needs and desired outcomes.
He will ensure you are the right candidate for the procedure and assess the amount of fat, skin elasticity, and muscle tone in your upper arms to determine the most appropriate liposuction technique. You will learn about different liposuction methods and whether combining liposuction with an arm lift may be beneficial for you.
This consultation outlines your options and sets realistic expectations for your results. You can also bring a list of questions you want to ask the surgeon. It will help you make informed decisions and prepare for surgery comfortably and confidently.
How Is an Arm Liposuction Performed?
- The procedure usually begins with local anesthesia combined with sedation to ensure you remain safe and comfortable during the procedure.
- The surgeon will mark the areas of the arms, typically near the armpit or elbow, where fat will be removed, to guide precise contouring for optimal results.
- Small, discreet incisions are made, usually in the underarm area or along the inner arm, to minimize scarring.
- A thin tube or cannula is inserted through the incisions to suction excess fat from your arm using techniques most suitable for you.
- The surgeon carefully sculpts the upper arm to ensure smooth, natural-looking contours and symmetry between both arms.
- The incisions are carefully closed with tiny sutures and bandaged.
Arm liposuction can be performed on the entire arm or may specifically target fat deposits in the upper arm, the back of the upper arm, or the armpit area. Depending on the amount of fat being removed and the complexity of the case, the procedure typically takes between 45 minutes and 1.5 hours to complete. Patients are usually able to return home the same day.
How Much Does an Arm Liposuction Cost in NYC?
The cost of an arm liposuction varies, depending on the type of liposuction technique you have included in your treatment plan and several other factors, including:
- The surgeon’s expertise
- The extent of fat removal
- Skin quality and elasticity
- Anesthesia
- Facility
- Compression garments or cuffs
Pricing can vary, based on your individual goals and whether additional treatments, such as an arm lift, are combined to achieve the desired contour and overall results. An in-person consultation with your surgeon is necessary to get an accurate estimate of your arm liposuction cost.
Is Arm Lipo Covered by Insurance?
Because arm lipo is considered an elective cosmetic procedure to improve appearance rather than treating a medical condition, insurance does not cover it.
Insurance might cover part of the procedure if only your health professional reports it as a medical necessity. This applies in cases where excess skin or fat is causing persistent skin infections, rashes, limited mobility, functional impairment, or other medical complications. In such cases, insurance will only pay for the surgical removal of excess tissue.
