Arm Lift Honolulu, HI | Robert Peterson, MD

Understanding Brachioplasty in Hawaii

Arm lift surgery, or brachioplasty, addresses loose skin and excess tissue in the upper arm region. This transformative procedure helps patients achieve more proportionate and confident arm contours.

Types of Arm Lift Procedures

• Liposuction-based arm reduction
• Moderate skin tightening procedures
• Extensive arm lift for significant weight loss patients

Candidacy for Arm Lift Surgery

Ideal candidates include individuals experiencing:

• Disproportionate arm tissue
• Skin laxity from aging
• Significant weight loss resulting in excess skin

Surgical Technique

Athena Clinic's arm lift procedures are customized based on individual patient needs. Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring, typically following the armpit crease or inner arm contour.

Recovery and Results

Recovery varies by procedure complexity, with most patients returning to light work within 1-3 weeks. Full results develop gradually, with final contours visible after several months.

Potential Risks and Considerations

• Temporary bruising and swelling
• Potential scarring
• Rare risk of infection

Consultation Process

During the initial consultation, Dr. Peterson will:

• Assess arm tissue and skin condition
• Discuss realistic expectations
• Create personalized surgical plan
