Liposuction Before & After Case 443
Provider: Dr. Galina Primeau
Procedures Performed Arm Surgery, Liposuction
Patient Age 19
Patient Gender Female
This patient came to us feeling self-conscious about persistent fullness in her upper arms. At 19, she found that even with a healthy lifestyle, she couldn’t achieve the contour she wanted. After discussing her goals and options, she chose to undergo liposuction in Ann Arbor to target this area and help her feel more confident.
We performed power-assisted liposuction on both upper arms, carefully removing a total of 700 cc of lipoaspirate, with 400 cc of that being pure fat. By gently palpating her tissue during the procedure, we ensured an even result with a smooth contour. Because her skin was youthful and healthy, she was an excellent candidate for the procedure, and we expected natural retraction with minimal risk of loose skin.
After her recovery, this patient noticed a visible reduction in upper arm fullness and was pleased with her more balanced silhouette. She reported greater confidence in her appearance, especially when wearing short sleeves. Her experience with liposuction in Ann Arbor was positive and empowering.
At the Center for Plastic Surgery Ann Arbor, we strive to listen carefully to each patient’s needs. As a board-eligible plastic surgeon, I—Dr. Galina Primeau—am committed to providing safe, individualized care, and I take pride in helping patients reach their goals while supporting their overall well-being.
*Keep in mind that each patient is unique and your results may vary.
