As time passes, it’s not only age that increases—
but also the natural signs of aging that gradually settle into the body.
Even with consistent dieting,
aging causes a decline in skin elasticity and slows metabolism,
making it harder for many people to see visible results
in terms of weight loss or body contour changes.
That’s why more people are turning to specialized liposuction clinics like ours,
seeking effective and lasting body transformation.
At our clinic, we focus not only on achieving the ideal body shape
but also on maintaining long-term aesthetic balance,
providing holistic care beyond just the procedure.
We take pride in treating our patients
with an approach that blends expertise, precision, and compassion.

The patient is 165cm tall, weighs 56kg,
with a BMI of 20.
Due to a long-term irregular lifestyle
and disturbed sleep-wake cycle,
her circadian rhythm broke down,
eventually leading to weight gain.
As fat began to accumulate along the back of her upper arms,
she found it difficult to feel confident in any clothing,
and it became a source of daily stress.
She visited us to ask whether arm liposuction
could effectively remove the stubborn fat
while also reshaping her arms into a balanced, refined contour.

During body consultation,
we noted that the patient had overall low skin elasticity,
but also even fat distribution across the arms,
including the upper arm bulge.
This suggested that liposuction would still yield a visible effect.
We explained that no matter how much fat is removed using a cannula,
the skin must have enough elasticity
to tighten and adhere upward afterward.
Otherwise, the arms could appear saggy
even after removing large volumes of fat.
Therefore, rather than removing the maximum fat amount,
we emphasized the importance of maintaining volume balance
to create a smooth and natural-looking arm line.
To further enhance upper body symmetry,
we recommended including the accessory breast and armpit areas.
The patient agreed, and a total of 2,000cc of fat
was removed from the arms, accessory breast, and armpits.

At 3 months post-op,
the side bulges that once created a round shape
on both arms before liposuction
have gradually improved into a straighter arm line.
With accessory breast and armpit liposuction done together
to enhance upper body balance,
the patient’s shoulder line now appears more defined,
falling in a sharper, right-angled shape.
As seen in the 2-week post-op photo,
there is still visible redness and some bio-bond firmness
around the treated areas—
but over time, these symptoms will subside,
revealing the sleek arm contour and balanced shoulder line
the patient originally hoped for.

2-Week vs. 3-Month Comparison]
Although we advised the patient
that excess fat removal could be limited
due to low skin elasticity,
she still experienced a noticeable result—
thanks to her ideal body type for achieving a straight arm line.
Through a detailed consultation,
we confirmed that her triceps were naturally slim,
and she had sufficient fat for safe extraction,
which made line improvement achievable.
To enhance results post-surgery,
we emphasized the importance of consistently wearing a compression garment.
For the first 2 weeks,
we recommended 24-hour wear,
followed by a gradual reduction to 12 hours,
and then maintaining 8 hours of daily wear for up to 3 months
to help preserve skin firmness and contour.
For patients who have undergone liposuction surgery,
the ultimate goal is to maintain their beautiful new body line for years to come.
To make that dream a reality,
it’s essential to follow up the procedure with
consistent, personalized management—
including a diet and exercise plan tailored to your body type and composition.
By doing so, patients can enjoy not only long-lasting results
but also a healthier and more balanced lifestyle overall.
