Lip Lift
Description
Brachioplasty, more commonly known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the underside of the upper arms. It addresses concerns related to excess, sagging skin and residual fat deposits, often referred to as “bat wings,” which can result from significant weight fluctuations, aging, or genetics.
The Process
The procedure involves removing loose skin and excess fat from the area between the armpit and the elbow. Underlying supportive tissues may also be tightened and smoothed to improve the arm’s contour. Incisions are typically placed on the inside or back of the arm, and their length depends on the amount of skin to be removed.
The Benefit
An arm lift can significantly improve the contour and tone of the upper arms, particularly when diet and exercise haven’t resolved issues with loose skin. Here are some potential benefits:
✓ Removes Excess Sagging Skin: Eliminates loose, hanging skin on the upper arms.
✓ Reduces Localized Fat: Removes stubborn fat pockets in the treatment area.
✓ Tightens Underlying Tissues: Smooths and supports the new arm contour.
✓ Improves Arm Contour: Creates a slimmer, firmer, and more proportionate upper arm appearance.
✓ Increases Comfort: Can reduce skin irritation or chafing caused by excess skin.
✓ Enhances Clothing Fit: Allows clothing, especially sleeves, to fit more comfortably and attractively.
✓ Boosts Self-Confidence: Helps individuals feel more comfortable with the appearance of their arms.
