ARM LIFT
What is an Arm Lift?
An arm lift, or brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms. It addresses sagging, loose skin that often results from weight loss, aging, or genetics. The goal of an arm lift is to create a more toned and defined arm contour, allowing for greater comfort and confidence in both appearance and mobility.
Types of Arm Lif
Traditional Arm Lift:
Removes excess skin and fat from the upper arm, with an incision extending from the armpit to the elbow.
Mini Arm Lift:
Involves a smaller incision near the armpit, suitable for those with minimal excess skin.
Extended Arm Lift:
Targets both the upper arm and the area around the armpit and side of the chest, providing more comprehensive contouring.

Arm Lift Procedure Details
An arm lift is performed under general anesthesia and usually lasts 2-3 hours. The surgery involves making incisions along the inner side of the upper arms, through which excess skin and fat are removed. The remaining skin is then tightened to create a more defined and contoured look.
Recovery and Follow-up
After an arm lift, you may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, which will gradually subside. You will be advised to wear a compression garment to support the treated area and aid in healing. Light activities can be resumed within 1-2 weeks, but strenuous exercises should be avoided for at least 4-6 weeks.
Immediate Follow-up:
5-7 days post-surgery for suture removal (if needed).
Long-term Follow-up:
Check-ins at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months to monitor progress and ensure optimal results.
