Brachioplasty (Arm Lift) Atlanta, GA | Dr. Mark F. Deutsch, MD

Understanding Arm Lift Surgery in Atlanta

Do you have concerns about loose, hanging upper arm skin that doesn't respond to exercise? An arm lift (brachioplasty) can help reshape and contour your arms, providing a more toned and proportionate appearance.

Who Needs an Arm Lift?

Ideal candidates for arm lift surgery typically experience:

• Significant excess skin in upper arms
• Loose skin after major weight loss
• Age-related skin laxity
• Desire for more proportionate arm contours

Arm Lift Procedure Details

Dr. Deutsch performs arm lift surgery as an outpatient procedure, typically lasting one to three hours. The process involves carefully removing excess skin and fat to create smoother, more defined arm contours.

Procedure Highlights

• Performed under general or local anesthesia
• Customized incision based on individual anatomy
• Liposuction to remove excess fat
• Skin tightening and repositioning

Recovery and Results

Recovery typically spans two to six weeks. Patients can expect some initial swelling and bruising, with final results becoming apparent as healing progresses. Most individuals return to normal activities within one to two weeks.

Long-Term Outcomes

Results are typically long-lasting when patients maintain a stable weight and follow a healthy lifestyle. Strength training can help enhance and maintain surgical results.

Potential Considerations

While arm lift surgery can dramatically improve arm appearance, patients should understand that some surgical scarring is inevitable. Dr. Deutsch carefully plans incisions to minimize visible scarring.
