Understanding Arm Lift Surgery in South Jordan, UT

Arm lift surgery, medically known as brachioplasty, is a specialized body contouring procedure designed to address excess skin and fat in the upper arm region. Patients in Utah seeking to improve arm appearance can benefit from this transformative surgical technique.

What is an Arm Lift?

  • Also known as brachioplasty
  • Reduces excess upper arm skin
  • Eliminates "bat wing" appearance
  • Improves arm shape and contour

Ideal Candidates for Arm Lift Surgery

Candidates typically exhibit the following characteristics:

  • Excess upper arm skin and fat
  • Stable body weight
  • Non-smoker
  • Good overall physical health
  • Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Arm Lift Procedure Details

During a brachioplasty, Dr. Grant Fairbanks carefully makes an incision along the inner arm, from the armpit to the elbow. The procedure involves removing excess skin and fat while preserving underlying muscle structures and nerve pathways.

Recovery and Expectations

  • 1-2 weeks recommended time off work
  • Compression garment used to manage swelling
  • Limited arm movement during initial healing
  • Full recovery and return to strenuous activities around 6 weeks

Potential Procedure Variations

Younger patients might benefit from alternative approaches like targeted liposuction, depending on skin elasticity and individual anatomy.

Longevity of Results

Results vary by individual, but maintaining an active and healthy lifestyle can help preserve the surgical outcomes. The procedure can significantly improve clothing fit and personal confidence.
