Non surgical fix for loose skin on arms that works?

An arm lift? Aren’t their long scars? I don’t have any significant loose skin, moderate amount. I’m not sure the risk is worth it, but curious to hear your experience

Disagree.

It would be unhelpful to tell OP to waste money on creams that won't improve anything.

To be actually helpful-

OP, I recently learned that a good friend's mom had an arm lift some years ago. She needed a malignant mole removed on her upper arm and decided to do a lift at the same time. I see this woman at church every week and she sometimes wears sleeveless dresses. I've never once noticed any scars. Presumably if she was lifting her arms doing yoga or something you might see them, but in a regular social situation I've never noticed. She looks great.

These are the key details here. You are not up to date on cosmetic procedures.

So enlighten us, I guess?

Anyhow, pointing out that arm lift scars are more subtle than imagined is irrelevant to other procedures.

If you're so up to date on everything that can be done, then why aren't you sharing that information with us?

We’d have to see your arms to know. I had pretty flabby arms and opted for lipo with renuvion skin tightening, followed by Morpheus. My arms look crazy good now, super sculpted. I also do CrossFit and regularly lift weights, so I imagine that the extra muscle helps fill out any remaining loose skin.

Like I said, you really need to have someone look at your arms and determine what’s possible based on how much loose skin you have, muscle tone, fat, and skin laxity.

This. Nothing works but surgery.

Is lipo considered surgery? And would that be the gold standard for arms?

Lipo is definitely surgery.

Whether lipo will be sufficient or not depends on your situation.

I don't think lipo will do anything for loose skin. It only removes the fat under the skin.

Obviously I will have someone look at my arms, I’m not planning on doing home laser or lipo. But I’m curious if renuvion and Morpheus made a real difference. These seem to be the two procedures recommended but I don’t know anyone irl that’s had it done. How many sessions did you do?

Lipo is surgery technically but it does not leave huge scars. But it likely won’t address loose skin. That’s an arm lift (a long scar) or various skin tightening techniques that are on the market.

I’m the poster that had lipo with renuvion plus Morpheus. I did it with Dr Ruff at West End plastic surgery.

He will be able to tell you whether or not it will be sufficient in your case. I can’t quite remember the specifics, but the renuvion can contract the skin up to 25-30%, but a lot of other factors are also at play. Morpheus is really effective at additional tightening and firming, and if you have any stretch marks it’s amazingly effective against those.

Because you told us that we're not up to date on cosmetic procedures, so we don't know what to ask you about, silly.
