What is Brachioplasty?
Sagging skin on the upper arms is a common problem that almost everyone faces after hitting their 30s or sooner if you have genetics. It is very common in men and women but it becomes more visible in women due to the presence of fat and loose skin around the upper arm area. As you age, your skin may become loose, resulting in excess bags under your arms. In this case, an Arm lift surgery can help you create a better contour.
Arm lift surgery, also called Brachioplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin and fat from your upper arms to tighten and tone them. It can help improve your sagging skin, and contours and tighten your upper arms.
How is Arm Lift Surgery done?
Your plastic surgeon will first assess your condition, taking into account your personal history, your overall health, and the severity of your loose skin on the arms. In order to make an accurate diagnosis, it is important to understand the underlying causes of sagging skin and loose fat so that the right treatment can be chosen for you.
An incision will be made on the underside of your arms by your plastic surgeon. The pattern and length of the incisions are determined by the amount of skin to be removed. Now, your underlying tissues will be tightened and secured with stitches after making the incisions. Following this, your skin will be draped over the new contours and any excess skin will be removed.
Are you the right candidate for an Arm Lift?
You will be an ideal candidate for the arm lift if you are struggling with excess skin that hangs from your upper arms and little fat beneath your skin. This procedure can help improve the shape of your arms, giving you a slim and toned look. Also, if you’re looking for an alternative to liposuction to improve your arms, an arm lift might be a good option for you.
How long does it take for Arm Lift Recovery?
You are advised to rest for around 24 hours after surgery, to avoid any activities that might damage your arms. This includes no lifting or moving heavy objects and no driving for the first 24 hours. A typical arm lift procedure requires approximately 2 to 4 weeks before you can return to work or perform normal activities. After surgery, you can expect some swelling or bruise that will usually go away in the first 1 or 2 weeks.
The results of an Arm Lift are typically long-lasting. However, you can expect some sagging to occur over time as your skin naturally loses firmness and elasticity due to ageing. Maintaining a stable, healthy weight can help retain your results.
If you are considering Brachioplasty, make sure to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can explain the risks and benefits of the procedure and help you decide if it is right for you.
