Arm Lift
Description
An arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure that reshapes the arm's under portion from the underarm region to the elbow. It is primarily performed to address sagging underarms due to rapid weight loss, aging or hereditarily. The procedure involves making an incision either on the inside or back of the arm. The length and pattern of the incision depend on the amount and location of excess skin to be removed. After the incision, excess skin and fat are removed. In some cases, liposuction may also be used alongside. Once the reshaping is finished, the incision is sutured. After the surgery, a bandage or wrap is used to cover the treated area to minimize swelling and to support the arms during healing. Most patients are able to return to work after two weeks, and complete recovery generally takes a couple of months, during which the patient needs to avoid lifting heavy objects. Results of an arm lift surgery are long-lasting, assuming there is no excessive weight gain afterwards. However, it's important to be aware that visible scarring will remain, and the choice to proceed with this surgery should take this into account.
