UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY: RESTORING ARM AESTHETICS

A brachioplasty is a surgical procedure designed to address excess
skin and improve the appearance of the upper arms. When diet and
exercise cannot resolve skin laxity, surgical intervention becomes
necessary to restore arm contours.

KEY BENEFITS OF UPPER ARM LIFT SURGERY

 	* Tightens loose skin around the upper arm
	* Removes excess skin from the upper arm
	* Potentially removes small amounts of fat using liposuction
	* Restores a more youthful, streamlined arm appearance

WHY ARM SKIN BECOMES LOOSE

Sagging upper arm skin can result from multiple factors, including
natural aging, significant weight loss, and genetic predisposition. As
skin loses elasticity, it often cannot retract to its original shape,
creating a need for surgical intervention.

SURGICAL APPROACH TO ARM CONTOURING

Dr. Barlow performs upper arm lift surgery with precision, making an
incision under the arm to minimize scar visibility. The procedure
involves removing excess skin and tightening the remaining tissue to
achieve a firm, taut appearance.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Following brachioplasty, patients can expect several days of rest.
Lifting objects and participating in strenuous exercise will be
limited for a few weeks. However, normal activities can typically be
resumed within a couple of days, with walking encouraged to support
the recovery process.

COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES

When necessary, liposuction may be used alongside the upper arm lift
to remove small amounts of excess fat, further enhancing the arm's
aesthetic outcome.

DETERMINING YOUR CANDIDACY

Ideal candidates for an upper arm lift are individuals with
significant skin laxity who have maintained a stable weight and are in
good overall health. A personalized consultation with Dr. Barlow can
help determine the most appropriate approach for your unique anatomy.

BRACHIOPLASTY: ARM LIFT SURGERY TO TIGHTEN SAGGING ARM SKIN

As we age, the skin on our upper arms can become loose and saggy,
especially after significant weight loss. This can lead to
embarrassment and self-consciousness about the appearance of your
arms. Brachioplasty, also known as an arm lift, is a surgical
procedure that can remove excess skin and fat to tighten and tone the
upper arms.

WHAT IS BRACHIOPLASTY?

Brachioplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat
deposits from the upper arm area, tightening and smoothing the
remaining tissue. This can dramatically improve the contour and
appearance of the arms.

BENEFITS OF ARM LIFT SURGERY

	* Removes loose, sagging skin from upper arms
	* Tightens and tones arm appearance
	* Improves arm contours
	* Boosts self-confidence in sleeveless clothing
	* Long-lasting results

THE BRACHIOPLASTY PROCEDURE

Dr. Buhrer performs brachioplasty as an outpatient procedure under
general anesthesia. An incision is made on the inside or back of the
arm, extending from the armpit to just above the elbow. Excess skin is
removed and the remaining skin is tightened. Liposuction may also be
used to remove excess fat. The incisions are closed with sutures and
the arms are wrapped in bandages.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Most patients return to normal activities within 2 weeks, with full
exercise resuming after 4-6 weeks. There will be some scarring, but
Dr. Buhrer places incisions to minimize visibility. Results are
long-lasting, especially when maintaining a stable weight. Patients
enjoy slimmer, more toned arm contours and renewed confidence.

SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION

If you're considering brachioplasty, schedule a consultation with
board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. D. Paul Buhrer in Annapolis, MD.
He will evaluate your arms and discuss if you are a good candidate for
this transformative procedure.
