Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) in Camarillo, CA | Daniel G Kolder MD

Understanding Arm Lift Surgery

Are you troubled by excess skin and fatty tissue on your upper arms, often referred to as "bat wings"? Arm lift surgery, or brachioplasty, offers a safe and effective solution to help you achieve smoother, more toned arms. Dr. Daniel G Kolder specializes in transforming arm contours through precise surgical techniques.

Consultation Process

During your consultation at the Camarillo or Santa Barbara office, Dr. Kolder will comprehensively evaluate your arm condition to determine the most appropriate arm lift approach. You'll have the opportunity to discuss:

• Detailed procedure steps
• Potential surgical benefits
• Recovery expectations
• Personalized treatment plan

Surgical Procedure

The arm lift procedure is performed under general anesthesia at the clinic's Ambulatory Surgery Center. Dr. Kolder creates a horizontal incision under the arm, extending from near the elbow to the armpit. During the surgery, underlying muscles and tissues are tightened, and excess skin is carefully removed to create a more defined arm contour.

Recovery and Results

Recovery time varies but typically requires 2-4 weeks away from work. Patients can usually walk around within a few days, though exercise and lifting will be restricted. While a permanent scar will exist, it will fade and flatten over time, becoming minimally noticeable on the underside of the arm.

Expected Outcomes

• Tighter, more youthful arm appearance
• Improved body contour
• Enhanced self-confidence
