Arm lift, or brachioplasty, is a delicate surgical procedure which improves the contour and appearance of the upper arms. This procedure involves the removal of excess skin and fat from the arm area, resulting in a more toned and youthful appearance. Arm lift surgery is typically sought by those who have experienced skin laxity due to weight loss or ageing. It offers a solution for achieving firmer and aesthetically pleasing arm contours.
During an arm lift procedure, an incision will be made by the best cosmetic surgeon after the administration of anaesthesia. The incisions will be generally made on the inner or back of the arm, extending from the underarm to just above the elbow. Excess fat may be removed or treated with liposuction. Supportive tissue is tightened and reshaped using internal sutures. Incisions are closed with either absorbable sutures or stitches.
During recovery, you may wear a compression garment for swelling control and have a temporary drainage tube in your arm to remove excess fluid or blood. Dr Pinky will provide detailed postoperative care instructions. It is crucial to abstain from smoking during your arm lift recovery, as it can impede the healing process.
