I have loose skin under my arms and I'm not sure which specialist to see for this. Is surgery the only option to get rid of it or are there other treatments available?

Loose skin can be addressed by plastic surgeons. If mild, radiofrequency or ultrasound-based skin tightening helps. For moderate to severe cases, brachioplasty (skin removal surgery) is the solution.
