Brachioplasty (Arm Lift) Lone Tree, CO | Emmett Plastic Surgery

What is an Arm Lift?

An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms. This transformative procedure helps patients achieve more toned and contoured arm aesthetics, particularly after significant weight loss or as part of the natural aging process.

Key Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery

• Eliminate hanging, saggy skin in the upper arms
• Reduce localized fat deposits
• Tighten underlying supportive tissue
• Improve overall arm shape and definition

Ideal Candidates for Arm Lift in Lone Tree

Emmett Plastic Surgery considers patients good candidates for arm lift surgery if they meet the following criteria:

• Maintain a stable, healthy weight
• Have realistic aesthetic expectations
• Are non-smokers
• Are in good overall health
• Have excess skin or fat in the upper arm area that doesn't respond to diet and exercise

Procedure Details

Dr. Jennifer Emmett performs arm lift procedures as outpatient surgeries under local anesthesia. The typical procedure takes approximately two hours, including preparation and initial recovery. An incision is strategically placed on the inside of the upper arm, allowing Dr. Emmett to remove excess skin and reshape the underlying tissues.

Recovery and Aftercare in Lone Tree

Post-procedure recovery involves managing swelling and bruising. Patients can expect:

• Initial recovery period of several days
• Gradual return to normal activities over weeks
• Specific post-operative care instructions from Dr. Emmett
• Follow-up appointments to monitor healing
