“…It is therefore important not to assist the patient in holding or controlling the mouthpiece device. The use of nitrous oxide is well-established in dental literature and has been adopted to many dermatologic and aesthetic procedures, including tumescent liposuction, as a safe analgesic adjunct [26][27][28]. Additional monitoring with a pulse oximeter is advised for longer procedures.…”

The visibility of arm contour in both men and women has been a source of discussion throughout time. Arm strength and athleticism is not limited to the male physique only. Iconic women such as Madonna and Michelle Obama have made discussions about arm contour more and more commonplace. Over the years arm contour has been a difficult area to address due to the thinness of the skin which often required surgical excision and unsightly scars. Liposuction of the arm has advanced to not only allow for improved contour but also options of refining muscular definition. With the addition of energy-based technologies such as radiofrequency, we can offer less invasive options to patients who may have previously only been candidates for excisional procedures. Liposuction of the arms can be performed under local anesthesia. This chapter introduces a new algorithm for assessment and treatment of arm contour which incorporates newer energy-based devices along with surgical options.
