Have you been noticing that your arms don’t look like they used to? Like they have a little extra skin you just can’t get rid of? Well there is a solution and it’s called brachioplasty. Brachioplasty, also known as an arm lift, tightens loose skin under and around the arm region. This procedure is typically preformed on patients that have sagging skin due to massive weight loss or natural aging. Not everyone is given the perfect genes but with today’s technology, almost anything is possible so why not learn more about this arm rejuvenation procedure.
How Does It Work?
An arm lift, or brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure which reduces excess sagging skin that droops downward, tightens and smooths the underlying supportive tissue that defines the shape of the upper arm, and reduces localized pockets of fat in the upper arm region. Fluctuations in weight, growing older, and heredity can cause your upper arms to have a drooping, sagging appearance. This is a condition that cannot be corrected through exercise.
Arm lift surgery may be right for you if the underside of your upper arms are sagging or appear loose and full due to excess skin and fat.
Am I A Good Candidate?
In general, arm lift candidates include:
• Adults with significant upper arm skin laxity
• Adults of any age whose weight is relatively stable and who are not significantly overweight
• Healthy individuals without medical conditions that impair healing or increase risk of surgery
• Non-smokers
• Individuals with a positive outlook and realistic expectations
