Brachioplasty (Arm Lift) Conyers, GA | Panacea Plastic Surgery

Understanding Arm Lift Surgery

Brachioplasty, commonly known as an arm lift, is a specialized cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and reshape the upper arms. This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss and are left with loose, sagging skin that doesn't respond to exercise or diet.

Ideal Candidates for Arm Lift Surgery

Candidates for arm lift surgery typically include:

• Individuals near their ideal body weight
• Patients with significant excess skin in the upper arm area
• Healthy individuals without medical conditions that could impair healing
• Non-smokers or those willing to quit smoking before surgery

Surgical Approach in Conyers

At Panacea Plastic Surgery, board-certified surgeons Dr. Singh and Dr. Abboushi customize each arm lift procedure to the patient's unique anatomical needs. The surgery typically involves creating strategic incisions on the inner or back of the arm to minimize visible scarring.

Procedure Details

The arm lift procedure generally follows these steps:

• Careful pre-surgical marking of incision sites
• Administration of general or local anesthesia
• Removal of excess skin and tissue
• Tightening and reshaping of remaining skin
• Precise suturing to minimize scarring

Recovery and Results

Recovery from an arm lift requires careful post-operative care. Patients will receive comprehensive instructions, including guidance on wearing compression garments, managing drainage tubes, and protecting incision sites. Most patients can return to normal activities within several weeks, with full results becoming apparent as healing progresses.

Potential Combination Procedures

Arm lift surgery can often be combined with other body contouring procedures such as liposuction or tummy tuck for comprehensive aesthetic enhancement. During the initial consultation, our surgeons will discuss personalized treatment options that align with your specific goals.

Considerations and Expectations

While arm lift surgery can dramatically improve arm contours and boost self-confidence, patients should have realistic expectations. Some scarring is inevitable, though our surgeons use advanced techniques to minimize their appearance.
