# Arm Liposuction in Bangalore

*Medically reviewed by [Dr Sreekar Harinatha](/about-dr-sreekar-harinatha-best-plastic-surgeon-in-bangalore), MCh (Plastic Surgery)*

Arm liposuction removes stubborn fat from the upper arms for slimmer, better-proportioned arms. It is one of the most common liposuction procedures among Indian patients. At Contura Clinic, Bangalore, Dr Sreekar Harinatha performs it in about 90 minutes as a day-care procedure. If you also have loose skin, an arm lift may be added.

## Who is arm liposuction for?

- Women who avoid sleeveless clothes because of arm fat
- People whose arm fat doesn't shrink with workouts
- People who find sarees, blouses or other fitted outfits tight on the arms
- People who want their arms in proportion with the rest of their body

If you have a lot of loose skin, for example after major weight loss or bariatric surgery, liposuction alone may leave the skin hanging. In that case, an [arm lift (brachioplasty)](/arm-lift-and-reshaping) is the better choice.

## Frequently asked questions

### How long does arm liposuction take?

About 90 minutes. It is a day-care procedure, so you go home the same day.

### Will arm liposuction leave loose skin?

If your skin is firm, it usually shrinks to fit the slimmer arm. If your skin is already loose, an arm lift may be needed as well.

### Can arm liposuction be combined with other areas?

Yes. It is often combined with axillary breast removal, back or bra-line liposuction, or Lipo 360.
