Many people considering liposuction inquire about the resulting scars. The exact location and number of incisions are explained in detail during the consultation. 

The incisions for liposuction are small and strategically placed to minimize visibility. Protectors are used to reduce their appearance as much as possible. However, incisions are necessary for the procedure.

This patient, who had previously undergone arm liposuction and experienced weight gain, consulted us for revision surgery.

[Patient Information]

- Age: Early 30s

- Occupation: Office worker

- Height: 153cm

- Weight: 47kg

- BMI: 20

*Results of liposuction may vary for individuals with similar specifications.

She had arm liposuction at another clinic two years ago. Dissatisfied with the results and experiencing weight gain, she decided to undergo revision surgery to improve the appearance of her arms.

The consultation indicated:

1. The patient has adequate skin elasticity and muscle mass.

2. The deltoid muscles are well-developed, making it challenging to create a perfectly straight shoulder line.

3. The back of the arms had enough fat for significant size reduction and contour improvement.

We proposed:

1. Perform liposuction on the arms and axilla to create a slimmer contour.

2. Due to the well-developed deltoid muscles, avoid excessive suction to prevent the muscle line from becoming too prominent; instead, create a straight line by removing a moderate amount of fat around the muscle boundaries.

3. Reuse the previous incision sites for this surgery to address the patient's sensitivity to new scars.

- Areas: arms, axilla

- Liposuction Volume: 1,500 cc

Post-surgery, the remaining fat was removed, and the arm contour was improved, resulting in slimmer compared to before.

The fat at the back of the arms can make the body appear larger when the arms are lowered. This surgery successfully improved these areas, resulting in a straight, slender arm line.

The photos show a noticeable change to a straight, slender arm line. The patient was advised on the importance of wearing compression garments, moisturizing, and scar care to achieve the best possible outcome.
