ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY) COTTONWOOD HEIGHTS, UT

UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY: SURGICAL ARM CONTOURING

Brachioplasty, commonly known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure
designed to remove loose, hanging skin from the upper arms. This
treatment addresses aesthetic concerns resulting from aging,
significant weight loss, or genetic predisposition to skin laxity.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

During brachioplasty, surgeons make strategic incisions along the
inner arm, typically extending from the underarm to the elbow. The
procedure involves several key steps:

 	* Precise incision placement to minimize visible scarring
	* Removal of excess fat through direct excision or liposuction
	* Trimming of redundant skin
	* Tightening of underlying supportive tissue

SURGICAL DETAILS

Clayton Plastic Surgery performs brachioplasty under general
anesthesia or intravenous sedation. The procedure typically takes 2 to
4 hours, depending on the extent of skin and fat removal. Patients can
typically return home the same day following surgery.

RECOVERY AND HEALING PROCESS

Post-surgical recovery involves managing expected side effects such as
swelling and bruising. Patients may experience:

 	* Mild discomfort managed with prescribed pain medication
	* Potential drainage tubes to collect excess fluid
	* Compression bandages to support proper healing

POTENTIAL SURGICAL RISKS

Like all surgical procedures, brachioplasty carries potential risks,
including:

 	* Temporary or permanent sensation changes
	* Potential swelling or persistent discomfort
	* Rare complications involving nerve or blood vessel damage

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Optimal candidates for brachioplasty typically include individuals
with significant skin laxity in the upper arm region who have:

 	* Experienced substantial weight loss
	* Genetic predisposition to skin sagging
	* Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

SURGERY: DR. DAVID CLAYTON

UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY (ARM LIFT) PROCEDURE

Brachioplasty is a surgical procedure designed to address loose,
hanging skin on the underside of the upper arm. This condition
commonly develops due to aging, significant weight loss, or weight
fluctuations. The procedure aims to create a more toned and refined
arm contour by removing excess skin and fat.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

During a brachioplasty, surgeons follow a precise surgical approach to
reshape the upper arm:

 	* An incision is made along the inside of the upper arm, typically
extending from the underarm to the elbow
	* Excess fat is removed through direct excision or liposuction
techniques
	* Loose skin is carefully trimmed and underlying supportive tissue is
tightened
	* Internal absorbable sutures are used to provide structural support

PROCEDURE DETAILS

Brachioplasty is performed under general anesthesia or intravenous
sedation. The surgery typically takes 2 to 4 hours, depending on the
extent of skin and fat removal. Patients can usually return home the
same day following the procedure.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTED OUTCOMES

Patients can anticipate a structured recovery process following
brachioplasty. Initial healing involves managing swelling and
bruising, which can be controlled with prescribed pain medication.
Compression bandages are typically used to support proper healing and
minimize fluid accumulation.

POTENTIAL SURGICAL RISKS

Like all surgical procedures, brachioplasty carries specific potential
risks, including:

 	* Temporary or permanent loss of sensation
	* Potential for persistent swelling
	* Risk of nerve or blood vessel damage
	* Possibility of fluid accumulation

SURGICAL EXPECTATIONS

While initial results are visible immediately, the full aesthetic
outcome becomes more apparent as swelling subsides over approximately
two weeks. Patients should have realistic expectations about scarring,
which is significant but tends to fade over time.
