- Treating the underlying medical conditions causing arm pit fat.
Is it possible to reduce the arm pit fat completely?
Yes. By liposuction 90% and by lipolysis 60 %
Surgical method:
By liposuction under Tumescent Anaesthesia, under-arm fat can be removed by 3 mm
ersincision. Once the fat is melted by laser, suction is applied. Towards the completion of
liposuction, laser skin tightening is done.

Ideal candidates for liposuction
Localised fat deposits: Suitable for individuals with stubborn fat pockets in the under
arm area that are resistant to diet and exercise.
Good skin elasticity: Candidates should have good skin elasticity to ensure the skin
can retract smoothly after fat removal.
Overall health: patients should be in good overall health, with no medical conditions
that could complicate surgery and recovery.
Recovery after liposuction:
Down-time: Return to normal activities in a day or two.
Post- surgery care: Wearing a compression garment may be recommended after liposuction
to reduce the swelling and to support the area as it heals.
Results: Initial results are visible immediately after liposuction but the final contour will
become apparent as swelling decreases.
Risks and considerations:
Asymmetry: There is a risk of uneven fat removal, which may require additional procedures
for correction.
Changes in sensation after liposuction: Some may experience temporary changes in skin
sensation.
Conclusion:
Underarm liposuction is an effective and minimally invasive procedure for contouring the
upper body by removing excess fat from the underarm area. It offers the benefits of
improved body shape with minimal scarring with quick recovery and minimal down-time
after liposuction. Consultation with an experienced cosmetic laser surgeon is essential to
ensure that the procedure aligns the individual goals and requirements. Proper planning and
realistic expectations are key to achieving satisfying results.
