Arm Lift in Lindon, UT | Kimball M Crofts, MD - Aesthetica Plastic Surgery

Understanding Arm Lift Surgery

Arm lift surgery, medically known as brachioplasty, is a specialized procedure designed to restore the shape and firmness of upper arms. The primary goal is to remove sagging tissue, excess skin, and fat to improve overall arm appearance. Patients experiencing upper arm skin laxity or irritation are ideal candidates for this transformative surgical technique.

Surgical Approach

Dr. Crofts typically performs arm lift surgery with strategic incisions on the inner part of the upper arm. Depending on individual patient needs, incision sizes may vary from a small armpit adjustment to a more extensive approach extending down the arm.

The Aesthetica Surgical Expertise

With over 20 years of board-certified plastic surgery experience, Dr. Crofts has performed hundreds of arm lift procedures. His expertise ensures:

• Precise skin removal and repositioning
• Careful preservation of nerve structures
• Minimized incision techniques
• Artistic approach to restoring youthful arm contours

Procedure Details

An arm lift surgery typically takes 4-5 hours and is performed at an accredited surgical facility. Patients are released home the same day, with follow-up appointments scheduled to monitor recovery and healing progress.

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery from an arm lift procedure generally spans 4-6 weeks. During this period, patients must avoid lifting and exercising. The initial two weeks require keeping arms elevated at a 45-degree angle while resting. Aesthetica Plastic Surgery prioritizes post-operative care, offering 24-hour nurse access and frequent follow-up appointments.

Potential Cost Considerations

Brachioplasty surgery at Aesthetica starts at $12,000, which includes operating room expenses, anesthesia, and surgical fees. Precise pricing will be determined during the individual consultation.

Scar Management

While surgical incisions inevitably create scars, Aesthetica offers advanced scar management solutions. Treatment options include silicone products, V-beam and CO2 laser therapies, and topical treatments to minimize scar appearance.
