Bulky upper arms with skin and fat excess have become a common problem with aging and especially after the massive weight reduction. Arm contouring procedures can be divided into three groups, those dealing with skin redundancy, lipodystrophy, and a combination of both which may require only skin excision, liposuction or both. Lipobrachioplasty is a method to address these issues safeguarding the vascular, lymphatic and neural tissue and hence reduces the rate of complications but resulting in a good contour. Here, we present three cases of bilateral lipodystrophy managed with lipobrachioplasty with good outcomes.
