What are the Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery?
The benefits of arm lift surgery using the latest technology are immense. It improves the shape and tone of your arms by reducing the excess fat and skin between the underarm and elbow. Often, such issues cannot be resolved by diet and exercise. That’s when your plastic surgeon would recommend a brachioplasty or surgery for your upper arms. An Upper Arm Lift Improves Your Looks
- Helps resolve problems that diet and exercise cannot: Genetic factors, fluctuations in general body weight and aging can cause your upper arms to develop a droopy, sagging appearance. An upper arm lift is the solution.
- Shapely arms to look good in certain types of clothes: Looking good in short-sleeved or sleeveless clothes means have shapely arms. Cosmetic surgery for the upper arms removes the excess fat and sagging skin to give you slim and smooth-looking arms
- Improved self-confidence: Having well-shaped arms helps to improve the way you carry yourself, and raises your self-esteem and confidence
The type of brachioplasty that your plastic surgeon would recommend depends on the nature of the problem. A mini arm tuck is sufficient if the drooping skin is located about two inches from your armpit. If the excess skin has a hammock-like appearance and hangs from the armpit to the elbow, you would require more extensive treatment to remove the subcutaneous tissue and skin from the upper arm.
Minimally Invasive Techniques can Enhance the Results of an Arm Lift
Established plastic surgery centers offer many innovative, minimally-invasive techniques that allow the plastic surgeon to remove excess fat and skin, recontour the arms and improve skin tone – with the least patient trauma and side effects.
Hi definition laser liposuction with SmartLipo Triplex™ offers permanent results. It combines the strength of three laser wavelengths – 1440, 1064 and 1320 nm – for greater disruption of fatty tissue in the arms. By pulling the surrounding skin inward, SmartLipo laser technology immediately rebuilds the subdermal layers, thereby eliminating loose skin.
BodyTite™ is a RFAL (radiofrequency assisted liposuction) device. Radiofrequency energy coagulates adipose, fibrous, and vascular tissue and heats the entire soft-tissue matrix. While coagulated and liquefied tissue is aspirated, the heating of the subdermal tissue and soft-tissue matrix enables superior arm recontouring and tightening.
The VASER 2.0 system delivers ultrasonic energy to separate fat from the connective tissues, while preserving the capability of the cells for use in fat transfer. It leaves the surrounding tissues relatively unharmed.
Arm lift surgery and liposuction performed using the new technology offers many benefits:
- Minimally invasive
- Improved skin tightening and minimal blood loss
- Outpatient procedure done under local anesthesia
- Minimal pain, bruising and scarring
- More precise contouring results
- No damage to surrounding tissues
- Better aesthetic outcome than conventional techniques
- Little or no downtime
Consult a skilled plastic surgeon to know which arm lift technique will work best for you. Brachioplasty can be effectively combined with a tummy tuck or body lift to improve your overall appearance. Remember that regular diet and exercise are important to maintain the results.
