Arm lift surgery, also known as brachioplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms to create a more toned and youthful appearance. This procedure is often performed on individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight and have sagging skin on their upper arms, or on those who have naturally droopy skin due to aging.
The arm lift surgery typically involves incisions along the inner aspect of the arm and the removal of excess skin and fat, followed by tightening of the remaining skin to create a smoother and more contoured appearance. The procedure may be performed under general anesthesia and typically takes one to two hours to complete.
Recovery after Arm Lift surgery usually involves some swelling and discomfort, but most patients are able to return to work and normal activities within a few weeks. Individuals choose brachioplasty for various reasons, including: Sagging skin: After weight loss or aging, the skin on the upper arms may become loose and saggy.
Brachioplasty removes this excess skin to give the arms a tighter, more toned appearance. Improved body image: People who are dissatisfied with the appearance of their arms may feel more confident and self-assured after arm lift surgery. Clothes fit better: Loose skin on the arms can make clothing fit poorly and limit wardrobe choices. Brachioplasty can improve the fit of clothes and increase clothing options. Health and comfort: Excess skin on the arms can cause discomfort, chafing, and skin irritation.
Brachioplasty can relieve these symptoms and improve overall health and comfort. Permanent results: Unlike diet and exercise, which can only produce temporary improvements, brachioplasty provides permanent results that can be enjoyed for a lifetime. It's important to keep in mind that brachioplasty is not a weight-loss solution, and the best results are achieved by those who have already achieved a stable weight and are in good health.
Additionally, a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, should be maintained to help maintain the results of the surgery. Consultation with a plastic surgeon can help determine if brachioplasty is the right choice for an individual's specific needs and goals.
