Understanding Brachioplasty: Transforming Arm Appearance

Are embarrassing "wing" appearances preventing you from feeling confident in sleeveless clothing? Annapolis Plastic Surgery offers comprehensive arm lift procedures to restore your arm contours and self-assurance.

What is an Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)?

A brachioplasty is a surgical procedure designed to tighten and reshape upper arms by removing excess skin and fat tissue. Depending on skin laxity, the procedure can involve small armpit incisions or extended techniques reaching to the elbow.

Ideal Candidates for Arm Lift Surgery

• Significant weight loss resulting in loose hanging skin
• Skin laxity from aging
• Stable weight
• Good overall health
• Non-smoker
• Committed to maintaining healthy lifestyle

Procedure Details

Annapolis Plastic Surgery employs advanced techniques to remove crescent-shaped skin and fat segments, creating smoother, tighter arm contours. The procedure typically involves light general anesthesia and strategic incision placement.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect approximately seven days of initial recovery. Swelling and bruising peak within two to three days and gradually subside over subsequent weeks. Most patients resume normal activities within three weeks.

Potential Limitations

Arm lift surgery may not be recommended for individuals with certain medical conditions, recent mastectomy, multiple skin infections, or those planning significant weight loss.
