Understanding Arm Lift Surgery in New Jersey
An arm lift surgery, medically known as brachioplasty, is a specialized surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat and skin from the upper arms. This transformative procedure helps patients achieve a more toned and slender arm profile by addressing loose, sagging skin that can develop over time.
Ideal Candidates for Brachioplasty
Brachioplasty is most suitable for individuals who:
- Have significant excess skin or fat in the upper arm region
- Maintain a stable body weight
- Have realistic surgical expectations
- Are in good overall health
Surgical Technique
During the arm lift procedure, Dr. Rafizadeh carefully makes an incision along the inner arm, typically extending from the underarm to the elbow. The surgical approach may vary depending on the patient's specific needs and anatomical considerations.
Procedure Details
- Liposuction to remove excess fat
- Skin trimming and tightening
- Minimal incision options for less extensive cases
- Performed under local anesthesia with sedation
- Typical duration: 1-3 hours
Recovery and Results
Following brachioplasty, patients can expect some initial swelling and bruising. Compression bandages and potential drainage tubes help support the healing process. Most patients observe immediate improvements, with final results becoming more refined as healing progresses.
Potential Surgical Risks
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Anesthesia reactions
- Temporary or permanent sensation changes
- Scarring
Personalized Approach in Morristown
Dr. Rafizadeh customizes each brachioplasty procedure, combining liposuction and skin resection techniques to achieve natural-looking, harmonious results. The incisions are strategically placed on the inner arm to minimize visible scarring.
