Understanding Brachioplasty: Arm Contouring Solution

Brachioplasty, commonly known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arm region. This transformative body contouring technique addresses loose or hanging skin that often results from significant weight loss, aging, or genetic predisposition.

Key Aspects of Arm Lift Surgery

  • Removes excess skin and fat from upper arms
  • Improves arm contour and appearance
  • Addresses skin laxity after weight loss
  • Creates more proportionate arm silhouette

Surgical Technique and Approach

California Aesthetic Center's brachioplasty procedure involves carefully planned surgical techniques to minimize scarring and optimize aesthetic outcomes. The incision typically extends from the elbow to the armpit, allowing comprehensive skin and fat removal.

Comprehensive Patient Assessment

The California Aesthetic Center team conducts thorough pre-surgical evaluations to determine the most appropriate brachioplasty approach for each patient's unique anatomical characteristics and aesthetic goals.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect a recovery period of several weeks, with gradual return to normal activities. Dr. Steve T. Vu provides detailed post-operative instructions to ensure optimal healing and minimal complications.

Potential Candidates

  • Individuals with significant upper arm skin laxity
  • Patients who have undergone substantial weight loss
  • Those seeking improved arm contour and definition

Dr. Vu removed a basal cell cancer from my left eyelid on 1-16-24, but in the process my cornea was damaged leaving me almost blind, and requiring MANY follow up visits with ophthalmologists to heal it. 3 months later, my vision is almost back to normal, but a new nodule developed at the same spot as the original cancer. A biopsy showed it to be more basal cell cancer, indicating to me that not all the cancer was removed during the surgery. Now I am facing another surgery to remove this one. I would NOT recommend Dr. Vu to anyone (and now have an oculo-plastic doctor doing the next surgery).

We were extremely pleased with Dr. Vu and his staff. I had skin cancer surgery on my upper lip area, and though it is still healing, we are confident that Dr. Vu did all that could be done and in the very best way possible. From the moment we met Dr. Vu, we liked him. He carefully explained my options and what to expect going into and out of surgery. We appreciated the check-up visits, instruction, and encouragement that he most patiently afforded us.

Dr. Vu changed my life! This is my first cosmetic surgery and was very nervous about the whole procedure, but I knew it was medically necessary to get the breast reduction. Dr. Vu ensured he educated me with the procedure. He didn’t sugar coat it and was very straight forward with the information. After the surgery, I am 100% happy with Dr Vu’s work! He and his team made sure they took good care of me medically, insurance and any other paperwork. Rose is an amazing insurance coordinator!!! Dr Vu, Rose and Cocoa are a fantastic team! Very responsive and caring. I highly recommend Dr Vu and his team for ALL your Cosmetic Surgeries 💙

I’m 4 weeks post op from a tummy tuck done by Dr. Vu and I am already so happy with my results! I can’t wait to see the final results once all the swelling goes down. Dr. Vu is excellent and always takes the time to answer my questions and explain everything. I would highly recommend him!
