Arm Lift San Mateo, CA | Frank J. Piro, MD

Comprehensive Arm Lift Surgery in the San Francisco Bay Area

Frank J. Piro, MD, a leading San Mateo plastic surgeon, performs brachioplasty (arm lift surgery) to eliminate excess skin and fat from the upper arms. Dr. Piro treats patients from San Carlos, Burlingame, and Hillsborough who want to feel confident in sleeveless clothing.

Understanding Arm Lift Necessity

As individuals age, weight fluctuations, hereditary factors, and the natural aging process can cause skin to lose elasticity. This results in drooping skin and localized fat deposits, particularly in the upper arm area. Despite exercise, correcting skin tone and texture often requires surgical intervention.

Key Reasons for Arm Lift Surgery

• Loss of skin elasticity
• Stubborn subcutaneous fat deposits
• Inability to improve skin tone through exercise
• Desire to improve upper arm contour

Surgical Procedure Details

Dr. Piro performs arm lift surgery under general anesthesia. He carefully creates strategic incisions on the upper arms, ensuring minimal visible scarring. The procedure involves removing excess skin, potentially performing liposuction, and reshaping underlying tissues to create a smoother, more contoured appearance.

Arm Lift Candidacy Requirements

• Positive self-image with specific arm concerns
• Inadequate skin elasticity
• Realistic aesthetic expectations
• Good overall physical and mental health
• Non-smoker or willing to quit smoking

Recovery and Results

Patients may experience mild discomfort after the procedure, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication. Recovery involves rest and avoiding strenuous activities. Aesthetic results improve gradually as bruising and swelling subside, revealing more contoured and refined upper arms.

Your Path to Confidence

Stop hiding your arms and start feeling confident. Arm lift surgery can help you achieve the sleek, toned appearance you desire. Transform your self-image and embrace a more sculpted silhouette.
