BRACHIOPLASTY ARM LIFT FREDERICKSBURG, VA | SURGICAL ARTS OF VIRGINIA

UNDERSTANDING ARM LIFT SURGERY IN FREDERICKSBURG

The upper arms are common problem areas for men and women throughout
Virginia. As skin loses elasticity, traditional exercise becomes
ineffective in toning the arms. Surgical Arts of Virginia offers arm
lift surgery to help patients restore natural upper arm contours.

WHAT IS AN ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY)?

An arm lift, or brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to
address skin laxity and excess fat in the upper arms. When patients
develop bulges of fat and hanging skin, even with consistent exercise,
Dr. Palmer recommends this targeted surgical intervention.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Potential candidates for arm lift surgery typically include
individuals who:

 	* Have attempted to tighten upper arms through exercise and weights
	* Experience sagging skin that hangs over the elbow
	* Want to restore natural arm contours
	* Are at a stable weight

THE ARM LIFT PROCEDURE

Dr. Palmer performs arm lift surgery under general anesthesia. The
procedure involves making an incision from the elbow to the armpit,
carefully removing excess skin and fat, and tightening the remaining
tissue to create a more sculpted appearance.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Following the procedure, patients' arms are wrapped to support healing
and minimize swelling. Initial recovery involves rest, with follow-up
appointments scheduled to monitor progress. Patients can expect some
temporary swelling, bruising, and discomfort during the healing
process.

COST OF ARM LIFT IN FREDERICKSBURG

Arm lift surgery at Surgical Arts of Virginia starts at $5,940.
Precise pricing is determined during a personalized consultation with
Dr. Palmer. Multiple financing options are available, including
CareCredit®, United Medical Credit, and Prosper™ Healthcare

BRACHIOPLASTY (ARM LIFT) MCLEAN, VA | MCLEAN PLASTIC SURGERY - DR.
GLORIA DUDA

UNDERSTANDING ARM LIFT SURGERY IN NORTHERN VIRGINIA

Weight fluctuations, aging, and hereditary factors can cause drooping,
sagging skin on the upper arms, often described as "bat wings". While
exercise can improve muscle tone, it cannot address skin elasticity or
localized fat deposits.

WHAT IS AN ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY)?

An arm lift, or brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to
reshape and contour the upper arms. The procedure reduces excess skin
and fat between the armpit and elbow, creating smoother, more defined
arm contours.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

 	* Surgical removal of excess skin and fat
	* Scar typically placed toward the back of the arm
	* Can be combined with liposuction for enhanced results

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

McLean Plastic Surgery identifies optimal arm lift candidates based on
several key criteria:

 	* Individuals who have lost significant weight
	* Healthy adults experiencing upper arm skin laxity
	* Patients with stable weight and non-smokers
	* Those maintaining realistic surgical expectations

ARM LIFT TECHNIQUES IN MCLEAN, VA

Dr. Gloria Duda and Dr. Erica Anderson utilize advanced surgical
techniques to address individual patient needs. While liposuction can
remove fatty tissue, an arm lift specifically targets excess skin that
cannot be resolved through exercise or non-surgical treatments.

SURGICAL APPROACH

McLean Plastic Surgery customizes each arm lift procedure, ensuring
precise skin and fat removal with minimal visible scarring. The goal
is to create natural-looking, contoured arms that enhance overall body
proportion.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patient recovery varies, but most individuals can return to normal
activities within several weeks. The surgical team provides
comprehensive post-operative guidance to ensure optimal healing and
results.

ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY) FAIRFAX, VA | HESS PLASTIC SURGERY:
CHRISTOPHER L HESS, MD

UNDERSTANDING ARM LIFT SURGERY IN FAIRFAX, VA

After significant weight loss or aging, individuals often feel
self-conscious about their upper arm appearance. An arm lift,
medically known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to
reduce upper arm size and remove excess loose skin, creating a more
appealing arm contour.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Candidates for arm lift surgery typically exhibit one or more of the
following conditions:

 	* Disproportionate or large upper arm size
	* Excess loose skin on the arms
	* Good overall health
	* Stable body weight

ARM LIFT SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

Dr. Hess determines the most appropriate arm reshaping technique based
on individual patient factors. Two primary arm lift approaches exist:

 	* Partial Arm Lift: Small incision in the armpit region, potentially
extending slightly onto the upper arm interior
	* Full Arm Lift: Longer incision running along the medial arm to the
elbow

SURGICAL APPROACH AND PROCEDURE

Both arm lift techniques incorporate liposuction to remove excess
tissue. The surgical process encourages skin retraction, helping the
arms conform to their new, more streamlined contour. Patients with
good skin elasticity might achieve optimal results through liposuction
alone.

RECOVERY AND POST-SURGICAL EXPECTATIONS

Patients can anticipate the following during arm lift recovery:

 	* Swelling and bruising for the first two weeks
	* Temporary skin sensation changes
	* Compression garment wear to control swelling
	* Limited arm movement during initial recovery

COMPREHENSIVE BODY CONTOURING

Arm lift surgery is frequently part of post-bariatric body contouring,
addressing loose skin following significant weight loss. It can be
complemented by procedures like tummy tucks, thigh lifts, and body
lifts to achieve comprehensive aesthetic goals.

BRACHIOPLASTY (ARM LIFT) IN SUFFOLK, VA

UNDERSTANDING ARM LIFT SURGERY

Weight fluctuations, aging, and heredity can dramatically impact upper
arm appearance. An arm lift, or brachioplasty, addresses sagging skin
and localized fat deposits that cannot be resolved through fitness
alone. Plastic Surgery Specialists offers personalized arm lift
procedures to help patients achieve smoother, more proportionate arm
contours.

WHAT IS AN ARM LIFT?

Brachioplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the
underside of the upper arm, targeting excess skin and fat between the
underarm and elbow. The procedure aims to:

 	* Reduce sagging, drooping skin
	* Tighten underlying supportive tissue
	* Improve overall arm shape and proportion

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Suitable candidates for brachioplasty typically include individuals
who:

 	* Maintain a stable, healthy weight
	* Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
	* Are non-smokers
	* Have lost skin elasticity due to weight loss or aging

SURGICAL PROCEDURE

Dr. Guarda performs arm lift surgery with precision, making incisions
on the inner arm. The procedure involves removing excess skin,
potentially using liposuction to reduce localized fat, and tightening
underlying tissues to create a more refined arm contour.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect initial swelling and bruising, with full recovery
typically occurring over several weeks. While the procedure results in
a scar along the inner arm, most patients find the improved body
contour and increased self-confidence well worth the trade-off.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

Long-lasting results depend on maintaining a stable weight and overall
fitness. Natural aging may cause some reduction in skin elasticity
over time.
