Brachioplasty (Arm Lift) Houston, TX | Shitel Patel, MD

Understanding Arm Lift Surgery in Houston

In Houston's warm Texas climate, many patients desire toned and sculpted arms that look great in sleeveless tops and dresses. Brachioplasty, or arm lift surgery, offers a solution for individuals struggling with excess arm skin and fat.

Arm Lift Procedure Options

Lift Plastic Surgery offers multiple arm lift approaches tailored to individual patient needs:

• Liposuction for minor fat removal
• Limited brachioplasty with small ellipse tissue removal
• Full brachioplasty for significant skin and tissue reduction

Who Benefits from Arm Lift Surgery?

Ideal candidates for arm lift surgery typically include:

• Patients after significant weight loss
• Individuals with loose or hanging arm skin
• Those seeking improved arm contour and appearance

Surgical Technique

Lift Plastic Surgery's arm lift procedure involves comprehensive steps to achieve optimal results. The surgical approach includes precise liposuction, strategic tissue removal, and meticulous incision placement to minimize visible scarring.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect some initial discomfort and swelling following the procedure. A compression garment is required for six weeks to support healing and optimize results. Most patients can return home the same day and begin showering shortly after surgery.

Potential Benefits

• Reduced underarm sweating
• Improved arm contour
• Enhanced clothing fit
• Increased self-confidence

Considerations and Risks

While arm lift surgery offers transformative results, patients should understand potential risks such as scarring, temporary sensation changes, and the need for potential secondary procedures to refine results.
