Arm Lift in Village of the Branch, NY | Pincus Plastic Surgery

Understanding Arm Lift Surgery

An arm lift, or brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reshape and improve the appearance of the upper arms. Patients seeking to address excess skin, fat deposits, and loss of arm tone can benefit from this transformative body contouring technique.

Ideal Candidates for Arm Lift

Candidates for an arm lift typically include individuals who:

• Are unhappy with the shape and tone of their upper arms
• Maintain a stable, consistent body weight
• Are non-smokers
• Are in good overall health

Surgical Procedure Details

Pincus Plastic Surgery performs arm lift surgery as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. The technique involves strategic incisions on the inner or back of the upper arm, typically extending from the armpit to the elbow.

Procedure Steps

• Strategic incision placement
• Fat removal using advanced liposuction techniques
• Excess skin excision
• Tissue tightening and precise suturing

Combining Arm Lift with Other Procedures

Many patients choose to combine their arm lift with complementary body contouring procedures such as breast lift, tummy tuck, fat transfer, or a comprehensive mommy makeover. These combination treatments can provide more comprehensive body transformation results.

Recovery and Expectations

Post-operative care is crucial for optimal results. Patients can expect temporary bruising, inflammation, and minor discomfort. While initial improvements are noticeable immediately, full results may take several months to develop.

Long-Term Results

Arm lift results can be long-lasting when patients maintain a stable weight and follow a consistent exercise regimen. However, natural aging may eventually impact skin firmness and tone.
