Get Rid of Bingo Wings: Treatment Options

One of the main aesthetic concerns that haunt a lot of people is the sagging skin that appears with age. This loose skin is referred to as “bingo wings”. The appearance of bingo wings on the upper arm makes many women (and some men) feel self-conscious about wearing short-sleeved clothes. Instead, individuals start scouring the internet for effective treatment options to get rid of bingo wings.

What are bingo wings?

Bingo wings is the term used to describe the sagging or loose skin and excess fat on the upper arms that can develop with age, weight fluctuations, or due to the natural ageing process. Commonly appearing as excess fat and lax skin around the upper arm area, can lead individuals to shy away from sleeveless tops and feel less confident in their appearance.

Bingo Wings treatment options

The good news is that patients looking to lose their bingo wings have a few options. These include:

Exercise and Toning

Lifestyle changes, such as regular exercise focusing on the upper body to build muscle tone and maintain a healthy weight, can help tone the upper arms and improve results for patients seeking a complete solution. Maintaining a regular exercise and muscle toning schedule could be sufficient to tighten the skin, and aid extra weight loss.

Along with exercise and toning, you could try non-surgical treatments that utilise radiofrequency technology and help with collagen production. These treatments help improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of bingo wings without surgery.

Arm lift (Brachioplasty)

One of the most effective treatments for fat reduction and skin tightening in this area is fat removal surgery, such as an arm lift (or traditional liposuction). An arm lift, a surgical procedure that removes excess skin, can dramatically tighten and contour the upper arms. The treatment procedure can be done under general anaesthetic or sedation and can take around two hours.

After the plastic surgery is completed, and the crepey skin is removed, you will likely need at least two weeks of downtime before returning to work. It may take a couple of months before any strenuous activity can be undertaken.

Liposuction

For patients seeking a less invasive option, liposuction offers targeted fat removal which uses ultrasound technology to break down fat cells. Similar to an arm lift, liposuction can be performed under general anaesthetic or sedation and can last anything from 1-3 hours depending on the areas you want to treat.

Depending on the size of the area targeted, downtime is a little less than with an arm lift. Rest for at least a week post-surgery, and avoid strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks.

Arm lifts and liposuction can be combined with a skin-tightening procedure for optimal results, they generally require some recovery time and may involve wearing a compression garment to support healing in the treated areas.

Each treatment has unique benefits, and consulting with an award-winning plastic surgeon like Mr Ioannis Goutos can provide patients with a tailored approach. With the right combination of treatments, patients can achieve noticeable improvements, regain body confidence, embrace their upper arm area with pride, and wear the clothes they want.

Mr Goutos performed keloidectomy surgery on both my earlobes, and I am so grateful to have been referred to him. From the first consultation, through surgery, and now my 3-month follow-up, I have nothing but good words to say.

This man is an extremely intelligent, professional gentleman. He will set realistic expectations from the beginning and will not ‘beat around the bush’ so-to speak. From the initial consultation to post-surgery, it has been a rollercoaster ride. However the high level of expertise & professionalism Mr Goutos maintained has been impeccable. All I can say to any other individual considering treatment with Mr Goutos, is that you are in incredibly safe hands. And on top of this, he has a great sense of humour. I wish nothing but the best for this man, and the best results for his future patients.

Mr. Goutos and his team did an amazing job reversing a scar I had on my forehead. This was a very old scar and had bothered for many years. The laser treatment and fat transfer procedure has changed my life and given me so much confidence. I would definitely recommend him, he is a fantastic and very skilled surgeon. Thank you so much!

Mr Goutos and his team removed some lipomas from my arms. The initial consultation right through to the aftercare was professional, sensitive and genuine. Mr Goutos put me at ease right from the start, discussing my history and background and then discussing the various options for the incisions and sutures. The incisions were quick, efficient and professional. I felt completely at ease knowing I was in expert hands. The incisions were extremely neat and have closed and scared really well. I had a number of questions after the operation and one of the sutures became infected. Mr Goutos was quick to make an appointment for me, see me and deal with the infection and offered for me to see him again if the infection didn’t calm down. He was genuinely empathetic to my needs and took time to check each scare, explain things and assure me along the way. He didn’t at any point, make me feel I was asking silly questions or too many. I highly recommend Mr Goutos for his exceptional incisions and suturing as well as his professional conduct, caring approach and after care. The whole experience was smooth and easy and I am very grateful for what he has done for me.

We came to see Dr Goutos a few month ago to remove invasive spider nevus on my 9 year old sons nose . After a lovely consultation with Dr Goutos , he suggested to do several laser treatment sessions. After a few sessions we already noticed a massive improvement. On the final laser treatment session the spider nevus was completely gone. Thank you to the Dr Goutos for tackling the problem so rapidly and with great results!

We took our 4yr old daughter to Mr Goutos following an accident which resulted in a small burn scar on her cheek. Mr Goutos gave us various options and we went for laser treatment. After 4 appointments the scar has gone! The care that Mr Goutos gave us was exceptional and so good with children. He made us feel very comfortable and confident in his ability. I would recommend him to anyone if they were looking for a doctor in that particular field. Can't thank him enough.
