Arm spanx?

So I've lost about 165 pounds in the last year and my arms which use to just be big, are now long bat wings. My short sleeve shirts drive me nuts because the arms flab sticks out the bottom. I've seen arm Spanx type products and I'm wondering if anyone has used them, do they work, and how noticeable are they?  Thank you!

This is a problem for me, too.  Short sleeves, straps and sleeveless are the bane of my existence.  I use these things called Sleevey Wonders.  They've opened up a whole world for me.  I can't say enough good about them.

Can you wear these under short sleeve shirts? or are they visible? Are they tight enough to hold things in? Thank you!

If you click on the website you can see how they work.  Yes they are visible.  I wear them with short sleeves, sleeveless and strapless.  There are several different types of fabrics

The sleevey looks interesting.  If you only could buy one which one would it be?  they are pricey so I want to try buying just one at first and see how I like them.  Thanks for the link!

I also wanna know how tight they are. I wouldn't want spanx type tightness on my arms.

I have spanx for arms - they are visible and hot.

I only wear sleeveless in the garden - i get longer short sleeve shirts (almost to the elbow) for casual summer.  QVC has them.   I may get a UBL, but I have to recover from rot cuff surgery first - maybe next summer.
