ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY) SOUTH MIAMI, FL | DR. SILVIA ROTEMBERG

WHAT IS AN ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY)?

An Arm Lift, medically known as Brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure
designed to remove excess, sagging skin from the underarm region. This
transformative procedure helps patients achieve proportionally
contoured arms that complement their overall body shape.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Candidates for Brachioplasty typically include individuals who:

 	* Have significant skin laxity in the upper arm region
	* Have experienced substantial weight loss
	* Cannot improve arm appearance through exercise
	* Are at a stable body weight
	* Are in good overall health

ARM LIFT TECHNIQUES

STANDARD BRACHIOPLASTY

The standard technique involves an incision running from the elbow to
the armpit, strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. Excess
skin and fat are removed, creating a more toned and defined arm
contour.

EXTENDED BRACHIOPLASTY

Recommended for patients with extensive skin laxity, this technique
involves an L-shaped incision that extends beyond the arm to address
additional tissue on the chest and side body.

MINI BRACHIOPLASTY

A less invasive option for patients requiring minimal skin removal,
with a smaller incision typically concealed within the armpit region.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Brachioplasty is performed under local or general anesthesia and
typically takes 1-2 hours. Dr. Silvia Rotemberg customizes each
procedure to meet the patient's unique aesthetic goals and body
structure.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect initial results immediately, with final outcomes
visible within 3 months. Compression garments and follow-up
appointments help ensure optimal healing and results.

COST CONSIDERATIONS

The cost of an Arm Lift varies based on individual surgical
requirements. A personalized consultation with Dr. Silvia Rotemberg
will provide a comprehensive cost estimate tailored to your specific
needs.

UNDERSTANDING ARM LIFT SURGERY IN MIAMI

Brachioplasty, commonly known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure
targeting the upper arm region between the elbow and armpit. This
procedure addresses skin sagging and excess tissue, which often occurs
with aging or significant weight loss.

WHY ARM LIFT SURGERY?

Skin elasticity naturally decreases with age, causing pronounced
sagging. This issue is particularly common among women due to
differences in muscle structure. Despite targeted exercise, some
aesthetic concerns cannot be resolved through fitness alone.

TYPICAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

 	* Individuals experiencing significant skin laxity in upper arms
	* Patients who cannot wear short-sleeved clothing comfortably
	* Those experiencing clothing fit challenges
	* Individuals with potential hygiene concerns related to excess skin

THE ARM LIFT PROCEDURE IN SOUTH MIAMI

During the procedure, patients receive general anesthesia. Dr.
Zuriarrain carefully marks incision sites, which may vary depending on
the extent of skin and tissue removal. Incisions can be placed inside
or behind the arm, potentially extending from the underarm to the
elbow.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

Dr. Zuriarrain utilizes two primary methods for tissue removal:

 	* Surgical excision of excess skin and fat
	* Liposuction to remove localized fat deposits

PROCEDURE DETAILS

After fat and skin removal, supportive tissues are tightened, and skin
is smoothed over the new contours. The incisions are then closed using
either absorbable sutures or traditional stitches that will be removed
after two weeks.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect initial swelling and bruising, with results
becoming more defined as healing progresses. Compression bandages are
required during the initial recovery period, and patients should avoid
strenuous activities for approximately four weeks.

LONG-TERM EXPECTATIONS

Miami arm lift patients typically experience long-lasting results when
maintaining a stable weight. The procedure can help restore confidence
and expand clothing options.
