What are bingo wings?

Bingo wings are fat deposits in the tricep (upper arm) area. This condition is mostly seen in women, but sometimes affects men too.

Even if there is no build-up of fat, factors such as weight loss or ageing can create loose skin around the arms, which can create the appearance of bingo wings.

What causes bingo wings?

Bingo wings are usually caused by age, slow metabolism and/or being overweight. The tricep area has both shallow and deep layers of fat; it is the superficial layer of fat that increases in size with age and can eventually lead to a noticeable fatty growth under the upper arm.

DID YOU KNOW? Three out of four British women say this area of their body (the upper arms) causes them such an issue that they refuse to wave their arms in public.

How to get rid of bingo wings

The following treatments are great at getting rid of bingo wings:

• Fat freezing is often a very effective way to combat excess arm fat.

• Lanluma V is a body-focused injectable that can be strategically injected in the upper arm area to restore volume and smooth out loose skin.

• Morpheus8 is a state-of-the-art radiofrequency treatment that stimulates collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity and reducing sagging.

• Plasma IQ is good for tightening loose skin on the arms.

• Profhilo injections can help to improve skin quality. We often use Profhilo to treat crepey skin on the arms

• Thread lifts can provide a noticeable improvement in arm contour. We place tiny threads beneath the skin to lift and tighten sagging tissue.
