Question

I'm interested in having an arm lift but I am overweight, other then that I have no other health issues.

Would I be considered to have the required treatment or would I have to loose more weight?

Answer

In general, it is preferable to reduce the weight prior to surgery, as the risks related to the operation are lower, and also to avoid a situation where after further weight loss following surgery the arms may loose some of the quality of the result.
