 

ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY) ATHENS, GA | STEPHEN LOBER PLASTIC SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING ARM LIFT SURGERY

Unwanted fullness in the upper arms can result from excess
subcutaneous fat, sagging skin, or a combination of factors. These
issues may stem from genetic predispositions, natural aging processes,
or significant weight loss. Brachioplasty surgery is designed to
address these concerns by removing excess tissue and creating a
smoother, more proportionate upper arm contour.

CAUSES OF ARM TISSUE EXCESS

 	* Genetic influences
	* Natural aging process
	* Significant weight loss
	* Skin elasticity changes

ARM LIFT PROCEDURE OPTIONS

Stephen Lober Plastic Surgery offers two primary approaches to arm
lift procedures:

LIPOSUCTION TECHNIQUE

For patients with minimal excess tissue, liposuction can effectively
reduce upper arm fullness. This method involves making small
quarter-inch incisions to remove subcutaneous fat, creating a
proportional and refined arm silhouette.

SURGICAL SKIN EXCISION

When significant skin excess is present, direct excision of skin and
fat becomes necessary. Depending on the extent of tissue removal,
incision placement may vary from a short scar inside the upper arm to
an extended scar reaching the elbow.

SURGICAL DETAILS AND RECOVERY

All arm lift surgeries at Stephen Lober Plastic Surgery are performed
under general anesthesia in their private Surgery Center. The
procedure typically takes approximately two hours, utilizing
absorbable sutures and avoiding drainage tubes.

RECOVERY TIMELINE

 	* Return to light activities: Several days
	* Driving: Permitted within several days
	* Desk job return: 5-7 days
	* Physical labor return: 10-14 days
