ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY) NEWPORT BEACH, CA | DR. AMY BANDY

UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY: ARM LIFT SURGERY IN NEWPORT BEACH

Brachioplasty, commonly known as an arm lift, is a transformative
surgical procedure designed to address excess, hanging skin in the
upper arm region. Ideal for patients who have experienced significant
weight loss, this procedure helps restore confidence by creating a
more contoured and toned arm appearance.

WHO IS AN IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY?

 	* Patients at or near their ideal body weight
	* Individuals with significant loose skin in the upper arm area
	* Patients with minimal skin elasticity
	* Those with stretch marks in the arm region

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

Dr. Amy Bandy performs brachioplasty under general anesthesia. The
procedure involves creating an incision from the armpit to the elbow,
strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. Excess skin and fat
are carefully removed to create a smoother, more refined arm contour.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients typically resume daily activities within the first week. Full
recovery and final results may take 4-6 weeks, with complete scar
maturation occurring up to two years post-surgery. Dr. Bandy
recommends following post-operative instructions carefully to optimize
healing.

POTENTIAL COMPLICATIONS

 	* Bruising and swelling
	* Potential infection
	* Scarring
	* Rare risk of asymmetry

PROCEDURE BENEFITS

Patients often experience increased confidence, improved clothing fit,
and enhanced body contour. The arm lift procedure can significantly
improve quality of life for those struggling with excess arm skin.

ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY) NEWPORT BEACH, CA | MARK A. ANTON MD, FACS -
AESTHETICS MD

UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY: ARM CONTOURING IN NEWPORT BEACH

Brachioplasty, commonly known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure
designed to address excess, sagging skin on the upper arms.
Fluctuations in weight, aging, and genetic factors can contribute to
loose arm skin that cannot be corrected through diet or exercise.

BRACHIOPLASTY PROCEDURE OPTIONS

Dr. Mark Anton offers two primary brachioplasty techniques for Newport
Beach patients:

 	* TRADITIONAL BRACHIOPLASTY:
 	* MODIFIED BRACHIOPLASTY:

SURGICAL APPROACH AND TECHNIQUE

Brachioplasty is performed under general anesthesia in an outpatient
surgical facility. The procedure typically involves removing excess
skin and fat to create smoother, more contoured upper arms. Scar
length correlates with the amount of skin removed, generally estimated
as three times longer than the skin excised.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Candidates for brachioplasty in Newport Beach typically include
individuals who:

 	* Have significant upper arm skin laxity
	* Have maintained a stable body weight
	* Are in good overall health
	* Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

RECOVERY AND POST-SURGICAL CARE

Following brachioplasty, patients can expect minimal pain and
swelling. Arms are typically wrapped in compression garments to
minimize post-surgical swelling. Internal sutures dissolve naturally,
and patients may shower the day after surgery.

ACTIVITY RESTRICTIONS

Dr. Anton recommends strict activity limitations during initial
recovery, including:

 	* Avoiding activities that increase heart rate or blood pressure
	* Refraining from exercise for approximately 4 weeks
	* Limited physical exertion during the first two weeks

ADDITIONAL CONTOURING OPTIONS

Dr. Anton may recommend complementary procedures like liposuction to
enhance overall arm shape and balance during the brachioplasty
surgery.
