Tuckshop arms

Question: I am considering undergoing an arm tuck due to "wobbly bits" on the underside of my arms. I can't seem to find enough information about the procedure or surgeons here in Australia that perform it. Is there any advice you can offer? Will weights at the gym fix my problem or is surgery the best option?

Answer: The operation is performed for excess deposits of fat, and skin laxity in the upper arm. Going to the gym will improve muscle tone but will not effect the distribution of fat and lax skin. The operation involves removing fat with liposuction and then excess skin is removed by surgical excision. The contour of the upper arm can be greatly improved but the surgical scars are significant.
