Medical Procedure: Arm lift
Medical Name: Brachioplasty What to Expect from Arm lift Surgery: The objective of the arm lift procedure is to improve the contour in the upper arm by lifting and removing excess fat and skin that has lost its elasticity due to age or fluctuation in weight. Description of Arm lift Surgery: The first step is a detailed consultation with your surgeon who will discuss with you the best method(s) to be used to achieve your desired end results. Incisions are made on the inner part of each arm. The length of the incisions depend on the amount of skin that needs to be removed. Sometimes, incisions are made from the inside of the upper arm, all the way down to the inner elbow. Excess skin is then either cut out surgically, or if stubborn fat deposits are present, the surgeon may choose to remove them via liposuction. Incisions are then closed with dissolvable or removable stitches, in which case the patient may or may not be required to return to the hospital for a follow-up visit to have the stitches removed. This procedure is outpatient, which means that the patient can return home the same day of the surgery, unless advised otherwise by the doctor. Good Candidates for this Arm lift Surgery: Healthy non-smoking individuals over the age of 18. Average Duration of Arm lift Surgery: about 2 hours Estimated Recovery Time: about 1 week I can return to work within: Patients should be able to return to work in about 1 week, however strenuous activity is to be avoided for 4 weeks. I should see the complete result of my Arm lift Surgery within: You will see the complete result of your surgery in a gradual period of six months, as it takes time for incisions and scars to heal. Pain Factor: Patients usually undergo general anesthesia, in which they will be asleep during the procedure. Swelling and bruising is to be expected. Prescription medications will aid in relieving the pain. Patients will also be given a compression garment to be wrapped around the arm, which will aid in reducing the swelling and adhering the skin that has been operated on to the underlying muscle. Potential Side Effects/Risks associated with Arm lift Surgery: Allergic reaction to anesthesia, bleeding, unwanted scarring, swelling, bruising, infection, temporary numbness, nerve injury, soreness.
