UNDERSTANDING ARM LIFT SURGERY

Excess skin on the upper arms can be a frustrating consequence of
weight loss or aging. An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty,
is a surgical procedure designed to address lax skin from the elbow to
the shoulder. Mississippi Center for Plastic Surgery offers this
transformative procedure to help patients eliminate "bat wings" and
achieve more toned, contoured upper arms.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Arm lift surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure
under general anesthesia. The surgical process involves:

 	* Surgical excision of excess skin from elbow to armpit
	* Optional liposuction to remove stubborn fat deposits
	* Careful incision placement to minimize visible scarring
	* Precise suturing to create a smoother, more refined arm contour

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect a recovery period of approximately two weeks. Key
recovery guidelines include:

 	* Keeping incisions clean and bandaged
	* Wearing compression garments
	* Avoiding strenuous activities for 4-5 weeks
	* Suture removal around ten days post-surgery

BRACHIOPLASTY RIDGELAND, MS | DAVID STECKLER MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING ARM LIFT SURGERY

An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure
designed to address excess skin and fat in the upper arm region. This
treatment is particularly beneficial for individuals who have
experienced significant weight loss or are dealing with age-related
skin laxity. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. David Steckler
specializes in removing "bat wing" skin, helping patients achieve more
toned and contoured arm appearance.

KEY ASPECTS OF ARM LIFT PROCEDURE

 	* Surgical removal of excess skin from elbow to armpit
	* Performed under general anesthesia
	* Outpatient procedure typically lasting a few hours
	* Optional liposuction for additional fat reduction

PROCEDURE DETAILS AND RECOVERY

During an arm lift, Dr. Steckler carefully excises loose skin while
minimizing visible scarring. The surgical approach involves creating
an incision that follows the inner arm, allowing for skin tightening
and improved arm contour. Patients can expect a recovery period of
approximately two weeks, with gradual return to normal activities.

RECOVERY GUIDELINES

 	* Initial recovery period: Approximately two weeks
	* Compression garments required for proper healing
	* Suture removal around ten days post-surgery
	* Avoid strenuous activities for 4-5 weeks
	* Initial results visible around six weeks post-procedure

CANDIDATE CONSIDERATIONS FOR ARM LIFT

Ideal candidates for brachioplasty are individuals at a stable,
healthy weight who struggle with persistent upper arm skin laxity. The
procedure is particularly effective for those who cannot eliminate
excess skin through diet and exercise alone. Dr. Steckler evaluates
each patient's unique anatomical characteristics to determine the most
appropriate surgical approach.

POTENTIAL BENEFITS

 	* Improved arm contour and definition
	* Enhanced clothing fit and options
	* Increased self-confidence
	* Long-lasting body contouring results
