Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) in Carlsbad, CA

What is an Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)?

An arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the upper arms by removing excess sagging skin and fat. Dr. Gehaan Dsouza performs this procedure to tighten and smooth the underlying supportive tissue, defining the shape of the upper arm. It is particularly beneficial for individuals who have lost substantial weight or are dealing with age-related skin laxity.

Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery

  • Removes excess, sagging skin from the upper arms
  • Improves arm contour and definition
  • Enhances overall body proportions
  • Boosts self-confidence in sleeveless clothing

The Arm Lift Procedure

Dr. Dsouza performs arm lift surgery under general anesthesia in an operating room. The incision length depends on the amount of excess skin and fat being removed, typically extending from the underarm to the elbow. The procedure takes 1-2 hours, and small drains are placed in each arm for about a week post-surgery.

Recovery and Results

Patients usually require 2-4 weeks of recovery before returning to normal activities. Walking is encouraged to promote circulation. Results are apparent almost immediately, with final results revealing gradually over 3-6 months. The outcomes are long-lasting, provided patients maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.

Ideal Candidates for Arm Lift Surgery

Good candidates for arm lift surgery include individuals who:

  • Have excess or stretched skin along the back of the arm
  • Are committed to a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet
  • Have lost significant weight, resulting in excess arm skin
  • Experience flabby arms due to aging
  • Are in good general health

I am surprised, grateful and delighted with the results I obtained with Dr. Dsouza 2 weeks ago today I had my implant removal along with a mastopexy and I feel PHENOMENAL!!! From day 1 I met the Doctor in person, very warm and original, very professional. He is young and understands perfectly what I wanted and based on my health and age he did beyond the best. The staff in the office are wonderful, the girls are very attentive and they also speak Spanish. The facilities are super nice, comfortable and very equipped so that I feel super safe. Without a doubt, I set a date for my surgery and the day arrived without any nerves because I felt in super good hands when I least thought the surgery was over. Everything was outpatient, I went home finishing it, the next day the Doctor was checking on me by video call. Today I'm 2 weeks old and I see my breasts for the first time, what the result was like, the sutures, the scar, everything was a well-crafted and delicate job with experience. Thank you very much Doctor Gehaan Dsouza I am HAPPY VERY HAPPY.

I had an extended tummy tuck and a thigh lift after excessive weight loss. I was super scared but Dr D’Souza made me feel super relaxed. My recovery went very well and my scars look like they will look great. I haven’t looked this good since I was 20! His office and staff always answered my questions and gave advice even after hours. Dr D’Souza was also available via his personal cell. I recommend 100%. If you’re considering plastic surgery go in for that consult. I guarantee u will choose to go with iconic plastic surgery!!!!

I researched many surgeons for my brother's surgery (Blepharoplasty) and came across Dr. D'Souza. I was immediately impressed with all of his awards and accolades being a board certified plastic surgeon. Dr. D'Souza performed an exceptional surgery with no signs of scarring. Not only did he remove the eye bags that had extremely fatty pockets he also corrected his drooping eye lids. After recovery my brother had a new sense of confidence that he didn't have in years. At that moment I knew that I wanted to experience this for myself and immediately booked my tummy tuck. He explained in great detail what to expect throughout the entire process. I was in minimal pain and back to work in 5 days! Dr. D' Souza continued caring for me through my scar healing process and I experienced no issues. I highly recommend Dr. Gehaan D' Souza at Iconic Plastic Surgery.

Dr. D'Souza is an exceptional surgeon who recently performed an autoplasty on me, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, Dr. D'Souza was highly professional, attentive, and skilled. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure to me, answer all of my questions, and address any concerns I had. He also provided me with clear instructions on how to prepare for the surgery and what to expect during the recovery process. During the surgery itself, Dr. D'Souza's skill and expertise were readily apparent. He worked with precision and care, ensuring that the procedure was completed efficiently and effectively. Thanks to his skillful hands, my recovery was swift and relatively painless. Throughout the entire process, Dr. D'Souza was kind, compassionate, and supportive. He genuinely cares about his patients and goes above and beyond to ensure their comfort and well-being. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of surgical care. Overall, Dr. Gehaan D'Souza is an outstanding surgeon who is dedicated to providing exceptional care to his patients. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to be under his care and highly recommend him to anyone seeking surgical expertise. -connor shea thanks doc
