I had upper arm reduction three times with liposuction. The skin on my arms is very saggy to the point that my arms actually look deformed. What can I do to correct this?

From the brief history provided, it appears that skin contraction did not respond favorably following liposuction. The best and probably the only way to correct the non contractile skin would be a brachioplasty or arm lift, more likely, a full lift that would involve an incision on the inner aspect of the arm with removal of excess skin and fat and restore the arms to a more acceptable appearance.
