**11. Conclusion**

Arm liposuction is a very rewarding procedure for both patients and surgeons that can be easily performed under local anesthetic or in combination with other procedures under general anesthetic. The addition of energy-based devices has expanded treatment options for patients with arm contouring concerns who either do not desire significant brachioplasty excisional surgery or who do not have enough excess skin to warrant the large incisions. These technologies can also be used to enhance the results even in our more traditional brachioplasty patients.
