Understanding Arm Lift Surgery
Excess skin around the arms can be a challenging aesthetic concern for many patients, particularly after significant weight loss or with natural aging. Dr. Jerry Chidester offers arm lift surgery, or brachioplasty, to help patients achieve a more toned and contoured arm appearance.
What is Arm Lift Surgery?
Arm lift surgery is a targeted procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms, creating a more streamlined and youthful contour. The procedure effectively addresses loose skin that cannot be improved through diet and exercise alone.
Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery
- Removes excess skin and fat from upper arms
- Improves arm contour and definition
- Enhances body proportions
- Increases clothing and style options
Candidacy for Arm Lift Surgery
Ideal candidates for arm lift surgery are individuals who:
- Have significant skin laxity in the upper arms
- Are near their ideal body weight
- Maintain good overall health
- Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
Surgical Procedure
Dr. Chidester performs arm lift surgery as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. The surgery typically takes 1-3 hours and involves carefully removing excess skin and fat while strategically placing incisions to minimize visible scarring.
Recovery and Results
Recovery from arm lift surgery requires approximately two weeks of reduced activity. Patients will need to wear compression garments and follow specific post-operative instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
Long-Term Outcomes
Results from arm lift surgery can be long-lasting when combined with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Patients can expect improved arm contour and increased confidence in their physical appearance.
Complementary Procedures
Dr. Chidester often recommends combining arm lift surgery with other body contouring procedures such as liposuction, tummy tuck, or breast procedures for comprehensive aesthetic enhancement.
