Bingo Wings Arms
What are Bingo Wings?
Bingo wings, also known as 'Byebye Arms' is a common term for the loose, sagging skin and fat on the upper arms that appears to hang or jiggle, often noticeable when the arms are lifted or waved. This can give the arms a less toned, softer, less defined and more flabby appearance, which some people may feel self-conscious about, especially when wearing sleeveless clothing. It shows as visible sagging or looseness in the arm skin, especially along the triceps.
​
Causes of Bingo Wings:
-
Genetics: Some people are genetically predisposed to store more fat or have looser skin in the upper arm area.
-
Weight Fluctuations: Significant weight loss can result in excess skin, as the skin may not fully retract after fat loss.
-
Muscle Loss: Without regular strength training, the triceps can lose tone, contributing to the 'bingo wing' appearance.
-
Aging: As we age, the skin loses elasticity and collagen, leading to sagging and a looser appearance.
-
Lifestyle Factors: Sedentary habits, lack of exercise, and poor diet can also contribute to excess fat and loss of muscle tone in the arms.
Bingo Wings Treatment Option:
Option 1: Fat-dissolving injections, like Lemon Bottle or DesoBody, can help reduce localized fat in the upper arms, making them effective for treating bingo wings. These injections contain active ingredients like deoxycholic acid that target and disrupt fat cell membranes. When injected into the upper arms, these ingredients break down fat cells, which are then metabolized and removed by the body's natural processes.
By reducing fat in the upper arms, these treatments help slim and contour the arms, giving them a more toned appearance. After treatment, the body needs time to process the destroyed fat cells, so results are gradual, becoming more visible over 2-3 weeks.
Depending on the amount of fat and desired results, several sessions (2-4 sessions) may be required.
