Arm Lift Abilene, TX | Hendrick Plastic Surgery & MedSpa

Understanding the Arm Lift Procedure

Often referred to by the nickname "bat wings," upper arm flab can be a source of self-consciousness for many individuals. An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty, offers a comprehensive solution to address excess skin and fat in the upper arm region.

Key Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery

• Reduce excess fat under upper arms
• Tighten loose, sagging skin
• Reveal a slimmer and trimmer arm contour
• Achieve a more youthful-looking arm appearance

Surgical Procedure Details

Hendrick Plastic Surgery & MedSpa performs arm lift procedures through a precise surgical approach. An incision is strategically made along the inside of the arm, extending from the underarm to the elbow. During the procedure, excess skin is carefully removed and the remaining skin is tightened to create a more sculpted and smooth arm profile.

Mini Arm Lift Option

For patients with less severe skin laxity, Hendrick Plastic Surgery & MedSpa offers a minimally invasive "mini" arm lift. This variation requires a smaller incision that can be discreetly hidden within the underarm area.

Procedure Specifics

Anesthesia and Recovery

• Many arm lifts can be performed under local anesthetic
• Typically an outpatient procedure
• Patients can return home the same day
• Downtime usually spans a few days

Post-Surgical Considerations

Patients should anticipate avoiding strenuous exercise and heavy lifting for several weeks following the procedure. Specific post-operative instructions will be thoroughly discussed during the initial consultation to ensure optimal recovery and results.
