UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY: TRANSFORMING UPPER ARM CONTOURS

An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure
designed to reduce excess skin and fat between the underarm and elbow.
The procedure reshapes the arm, creating smoother skin and more
proportionate contours for patients in Melbourne and Brevard County.

WHO BENEFITS FROM AN ARM LIFT?

Ideal candidates for brachioplasty typically experience:

 	* Significant skin laxity in the upper arm region
	* Excess skin following substantial weight loss
	* Age-related loss of skin elasticity
	* Desire to improve arm appearance and clothing fit

BRACHIOPLASTY PROCEDURE DETAILS

During the arm lift procedure, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr.
Mauricio Castellon removes excess skin and fat from the upper arm
area. This technique eliminates the "bat wing" appearance, allowing
patients to feel more confident in short-sleeved or sleeveless
clothing.

PROCEDURE CANDIDACY CONSIDERATIONS

Patients considering brachioplasty should be:

 	* Within 10-15 pounds of their ideal body weight
	* Stable weight for at least 12 months
	* In good overall health
	* Non-smokers or willing to quit before surgery

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Typical brachioplasty recovery involves:

 	* Initial recovery period of 2-3 weeks
	* Resuming moderate activities after one month
	* Full healing and final results within 2-3 months
	* Long-lasting results with proper nutrition and exercise

SURGICAL APPROACH

Dr. Castellon offers both full and mini brachioplasty techniques,
tailored to individual patient needs. The procedure typically takes
one to two hours and is performed under general anesthesia at a fully
equipped surgical center.
