Arm lipo (arm liposuction) removes localized fat from the upper and back of the arm through thin cannulas and small incisions. With BodyTite, a radiofrequency-assisted liposuction, heat is also applied beneath the skin to help it contract. It’s a contouring surgery: it doesn’t remove excess skin, which is what an arm lift (brachioplasty) is for. It’s part of Dra. Sofía Rincón’s liposuction in Tijuana.

What our patients say
"Dra., I wanted to tell you that two months after my surgery I’m so happy with how I look and, above all, how I feel. Once again people told me how beautiful my dress looked and that my body looked super natural. That made me so happy, because it’s exactly what I wanted: to look like me, but a better version of my body, without it looking exaggerated or artificial. I’m so grateful for you and all your work; every time I look in the mirror I know I made the right decision putting myself in your hands." (Translated from Spanish)
"Good morning, doctor. I just wanted to thank you a thousand times for the surgery that changed my life; your hands truly are magical and I’m so happy with my results. Here’s a photo in my dress from my stepdaughter’s quinceañera. Thanks to you the dress looked beautiful on me, and I got so many compliments on how good I looked. Thank you again for everything you did for me." (Translated from Spanish)
"The best experience I could have had. From the first time I met Dra. Sofía I felt confident; she looked after my health carefully until I was 100% ready for surgery. It's now been almost a month since my surgery (breast lift, lipo, BBL and tummy tuck), I love my body, recovery has gone very well, and she always answers and stays on top of everything. My results are exactly what I asked for!"
"I don't have words to express my gratitude for the exceptional care from Dra. Sofía Rincón. I came to her for a tummy tuck revision after complications and adhesions from a previous surgery elsewhere. She fixed everything perfectly and gave me my quality of life back. Her motto, 'Your body is reborn in expert hands,' couldn't be more true."
"My experience with Dra. Sofía Rincón was incredible. From my first consultation she was extremely thorough and knew exactly what I wanted. On the day of my surgery the care was exceptional, and she recommended the best recovery center. Today, 5 weeks later, I'm very happy with the results and her ongoing follow-up."
"Super professional, she explained my procedure in detail before applying the Botox, and all the aftercare. She gave me a lot of confidence and the result was very subtle and natural."
"I had chin liposuction with Facetite and buccal fat removal with Dra. Sofía Rincón. I was thrilled with the results and the care. She's always very professional and takes care of every detail of your face."
"Absolutely incredible work and spectacular results! I lost 30 kilos and Dra. Sofía helped me enormously with reconstructive surgeries that let me get my figure back. I'm thrilled! She's a kind, attentive surgeon with great attention to detail."

Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about arm lipo, BodyTite, cost, scars, and recovery in Tijuana.
Arm lipo (arm liposuction) removes localized fat from the upper and back of the arm through thin cannulas and small incisions. Good candidates have fat that doesn’t go away with diet and exercise, a stable weight, and enough skin elasticity for the skin to adjust afterward. If the main concern is loose, hanging skin, an arm lift (brachioplasty) is usually the better option. Dra. Sofía will confirm which one fits at your consultation.
Arm lipo cost depends on whether only the arms are treated or also the underarm and back, whether BodyTite skin tightening is added, and whether it’s combined with another surgery, plus operating room fees at an accredited hospital and a board-certified anesthesiologist. After your consultation you receive a formal written quote with no hidden fees, so we don’t quote a single price without evaluating your case.
BodyTite is radiofrequency-assisted liposuction: besides removing fat, it applies heat beneath the skin to help the tissue contract. It’s considered when there is mild to moderate skin laxity, which is common on the arms. If there is significant excess skin, radiofrequency doesn’t replace an arm lift.
Arm liposuction removes fat and leaves small scars, but it doesn’t remove skin. An arm lift (brachioplasty) removes excess skin and fat and leaves a longer scar along the arm. Which one you need depends on how much loose skin you have and its elasticity; sometimes they are combined.
Swelling and bruising are normal during the first weeks. You’ll wear a compression garment or sleeve for as long as Dra. Sofía indicates and return to your activities gradually, avoiding strenuous arm exercise at first. The final result becomes visible as swelling goes down over several months. Your consultation includes a recovery timeline for your case.
