ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY) COLUMBUS, IN | SOUTHERN INDIANA AESTHETIC &
PLASTIC SURGERY, LLC

UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY: ARM CONTOURING SURGERY

Brachioplasty, commonly known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure
designed to remove loose, hanging skin on the upper arms. Southern
Indiana Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery, LLC specializes in this
transformative body contouring technique for patients in Columbus, IN.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Southern Indiana Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery, LLC recommends
brachioplasty for patients who have:

 	* Excessive upper arm skin and fat unresponsive to diet and exercise
	* Maintained a stable body weight
	* No major medical conditions that could complicate surgery
	* Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

The brachioplasty procedure involves precise surgical techniques to
reshape and contour the upper arms. Surgeons create an incision along
the inner arm, typically extending from the underarm to the elbow.
Excess fat is removed through direct excision or liposuction, and
underlying supportive tissue is tightened using internal absorbable
sutures.

MINIMAL-INCISION ARM LIFT OPTIONS

For patients requiring minimal skin and fat removal, Southern Indiana
Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery, LLC offers a less invasive arm lift
technique. This approach uses smaller incisions near the underarm,
reducing surgical complexity and recovery time.

RECOVERY AND HEALING PROCESS

After brachioplasty, patients can expect temporary swelling and
bruising. Compression bandages and potential drainage tubes support
proper healing. Most patients experience noticeable improvements
within two weeks, with final results becoming more apparent as healing
progresses.

POTENTIAL SURGICAL RISKS

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

 	* Temporary or permanent sensation changes
	* Persistent swelling
	* Potential nerve or blood vessel damage
	* Fluid accumulation

SCAR MANAGEMENT

Patients should understand that brachioplasty results in a significant
surgical scar. However, these scars typically fade and become less
noticeable over time with proper care and healing.
