I am not generally very overweight, but fat was concentrated unusually around my upper arms. Even when I lost weight through dieting, other areas slimmed while my arms barely changed, which was frustrating. The back of my arms continued toward the bra-line fat, making my upper body look larger. I also disliked how uneven my arm line looked in fitted clothes, and I could not wear sleeveless or short-sleeved tops comfortably. Exercise and diet did not create the line I wanted, so I consulted [Clinic A] about liposuction. They explained that for a natural transition, they should assess not only the upper arms but also the underarm area and bra-line fat. They asked about the areas that concerned me and discussed what was realistically possible, which I appreciated. They said removing more is not always better, so I explained the look I wanted, asked various questions, and decided on surgery. At first I wondered whether anything had changed because of the swelling, but with time the arm line clearly changed. My upper arms used to look disproportionately thick, while now my overall proportions feel more balanced. In particular, smoothing the transition from the backs of my arms and underarms to the bra-line fat makes my upper body look less bulky. The sideward spread when my arms are down has also decreased a lot. There are still slightly firm areas, but the swelling and pulling sensation are almost gone. My arms never really changed when I dieted, so I am most satisfied that I can visibly see the difference this time. I also like not worrying about my arms first when wearing short sleeves. Liposuction is the best haha!
