Women are embracing with open arms the chance to look like Michelle Obama in a sleeveless dress.
Upper-arm lift procedures have shot up 4,378 percent over the past decade, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reported yesterday.
Last year, 15,000 Americans 98 percent of them women had liposuction to get rid of excess fat, or a surgical procedure called brachioplasty to remove flabby, loose skin hanging from the back of the upper arms. In 2000, just over 300 had the procedures.
The trends popularity is partly because people who have lost huge amounts of weight through diet and exercise or with bariatric surgery later want to lose the batwing skin drooping from their arms, and undergo a brachioplasty
Another factor is that celebrities from the White House to the red carpet may be having an influence, the ASPS said.
A poll conducted on its behalf found that 31 percent of respondents most wanted the arms of Michelle Obama, followed by Jennifer Aniston (29 percent), Jessica Biel (16), Kelly Ripa (13) and Demi Moore (11).
A brachioplasty, which requires an incision from the elbow to the armpit, is not a procedure to lose weight with, said ASPS Public Education Committee Chair Dr. David Reath.

Save the money gals, just buy a Star Wars Wookie suit...
Same net effect...
So they want ape arms. thats sad and demented.
Did they also get the complimentary Lib Special brain reduction bonus?
I reckon at least 6 cans of silicone ought to do it.
They should have the excess fat that is sucked out of their arms injected back into their butts, then they would look even more like her
Do they take that flab that is removed from their upper arms and pack it into their butts so they can look even more like Michelle?
What? Silicon injections for their asses?
Their brains were already shruken and diseased to even desire to try and alter their decaying framework which will return to the dust. all is vanity said the Preacher...But look like Mooshell...? thats batsh!t crazy.
The expression among New York Jewry is "Hadassah arms." I'm hoping removing the flab removes the liberal hormones at the same time.
Why do they need surgery; just eat more, lots more. Don’t go by the diet she demands everyone else follow, go by what she actually eats. What is it, a lobster a week; aborted fetuses, good wholesome liberal hypocrite food.
Those are people who aren’t paying their fair share in taxes.
And every female news lemming from the alphabet networks to CNN and Fox have been wearing sleeveless dresses throughout the coldest winter in decades to show off their arms. It’s a pity that brains aren’t valued as much.
Her masculine look is caused by lobster lifting.
anyone who wants to look like Moochelle needs to get their head examined!
she is one of the ugliest women alive with all the class of trailer trash. She is an embarrassment to our country.
She has the longest arms of anyone I’ve ever seen, at least every picture of her with her arms hanging down they look super long. She has a terrible shape all in all and then the way she dresses just accentuates it.
Latest research on global warming, melting ice caps having been traced to the phenomena seen in this image the effect of which caused the Earth to wobble on its axis permanently shifting the angle in which it faces the sun, extending exposure to light, heat.
