Understanding Arm Lift Surgery in Metairie

Excess skin is a common concern for individuals experiencing weight changes or aging. Dr. Jules Walters offers upper arm lift surgery (brachioplasty) for patients struggling to tone or tighten their arms through traditional methods. This surgical technique addresses excess skin from the elbow to the shoulder, particularly prevalent among those who have lost significant weight or are experiencing age-related skin laxity.

Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery

• Tightening and toning upper arm contours
• Removing loose, excess skin
• Enhancing mobility and range of motion
• Smoothing skin texture under the arms
• Improving comfort by reducing skin chafing
• Preventing skin irritation and rashes
• Providing long-lasting, dramatic aesthetic improvements

Surgical Technique in Metairie

The arm lift procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia in an outpatient facility. Dr. Walters carefully removes sagging skin from the elbow to the armpit, strategically placing incisions to minimize visible scarring. Optional liposuction can be incorporated to eliminate stubborn fat deposits, creating a more refined arm contour.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect a typical recovery period of approximately two weeks. Dr. Walters provides comprehensive post-operative care, including compression garments, follow-up appointments, and personalized healing guidance. Patients are advised to gradually resume daily activities and avoid strenuous exercise for at least one month.
