Arm Lift in La Jolla, CA | Dr. Jeffrey Umansky

Understanding Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) Procedures

An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms. This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss or have loose, sagging skin that does not respond to exercise or diet.

Who is a Good Candidate for an Arm Lift?

• Individuals with significant skin laxity in the upper arm region
• Patients who have lost substantial weight
• Those with excess skin that does not improve with exercise
• Healthy individuals with realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Arm Lift Surgical Technique

Dr. Jeffrey Umansky performs arm lift procedures using advanced surgical techniques tailored to each patient's unique anatomical needs. The procedure typically involves making an incision along the inner arm, removing excess skin and fat, and then carefully reshaping the underlying supportive tissue to create a more toned and contoured appearance.

Recovery and Expected Results

Recovery from an arm lift procedure varies by individual but generally involves a few weeks of reduced activity. Patients can expect some swelling and bruising, which will gradually subside. The final results typically become visible after several months as the body heals and settles.

Potential Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery

• Reduced excess skin and improved arm contour
• Enhanced body proportions
• Increased comfort in clothing
• Improved self-confidence
