Wave goodbye to droopy arms! Age and weight changes can take a toll on our bodies through excess fat and loose skin in the arms, both of which can be addressed through surgery.
Brachioplasty (arm lift) is a body contouring procedure that removes loose skin and excess fat from the arm.
What Are Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) and Arm Contouring?
Brachioplasty in Austin involves removing this excess skin and, in some cases, fat deposits to achieve a more toned and youthful appearance. This procedure can include arm contouring surgery like liposuction to target stubborn fat pockets for a smoother, more sculpted look.
Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) and arm contouring procedures reshape and refine the upper arms. Over time, factors like age, weight fluctuations, and genetics can cause the skin to lose elasticity, leading to sagging or excess skin.
Benefits of Arm Lift & Arm Contouring
Combining arm lift and contouring procedures offers benefits like removing excess skin and fat, which gives arm lift and contouring patients a smoother and more toned appearance. This also boosts confidence by eliminating the need to hide sagging arms. The procedure improves overall proportions, complementing your body shape.
Am I a Good Candidate for Arm Lift and Arm
Contouring?
You might be an excellent candidate for an arm lift in Austin if:
- You have sagging skin on your upper arms that doesn’t improve with diet or exercise.
- You’re at a stable weight and in good overall health.
- You have realistic expectations about the results of arm contouring surgery.
A consultation with Dr. Aisha White at Quintessence Plastic Surgery can help determine if this procedure is right for you.
What Happens During an Arm Lift and Arm Contouring Procedure?
During an upper arm lift, an incision is made along the inside or back of the arm. Excess skin is removed, and the underlying tissues are tightened for a firmer, more contoured look.
If needed, liposuction may be performed to address additional fat deposits. The length and placement of the incision will depend on the amount of correction required. This outpatient procedure is performed under general anesthesia for a comfortable experience.
Arm Lift and Arm Contouring Recovery
Recovery from arm lift surgery involves some swelling and bruising. This should subside within a few weeks.
Patients are usually advised to wear a compression garment to minimize swelling and support the new arm contours. Most people return to light activities within a week, but strenuous activities must be avoided for about four to six weeks.
