fat grafting for arms

Postby bonsuerob » Sun Jul 13, 2008 8:27 am

Is it possible to use fat grafting to the inside of the elbow bend to plump this area as a result of age and sun damage? I have lost twenty pounds over the past 5 years, and this area is troubling for me. I am fit and in good health, but am unable to build this particular part of my arms. I saw you this past week for Botox, but forgot to ask about this. Thank you.

Bonnie,
I have only put fat in the arm to correct someone else's bad liposuction and it has held well now over 2 years. However, I really don't have much experience in that department. My feeling is that the fat would be better spent in your face and hands first. Also, I don't know what a lot of fat would look like in the arms, probably not so good. Finally, I would recommend some mesotherapy and Accent XL to tighten things up in the arm department. Talk with Connie in our Laser Center. 972-312-8189. You'll enjoy it because the treatment is now in our incredible new spa. I just saw my sister's website design (not live yet) which is really beautiful.
Best,
SML
