UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY: ACHIEVING TONED AND FIRM ARMS

Sleek and firm upper arms have become a highly desired aesthetic goal
for many individuals. Despite dedicated exercise and diet, some
patients find it challenging to achieve their desired arm contour due
to factors like weight loss, aging, or genetic predisposition.

WHAT IS BRACHIOPLASTY?

Brachioplasty, commonly known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure
designed to address various upper arm imperfections. The technique
surgically tightens the underarm area, creating a smoother and more
toned appearance.

BRACHIOPLASTY PROCEDURE VARIATIONS

 	* LIMITED-INCISION BRACHIOPLASTY:
 	* STANDARD BRACHIOPLASTY:
 	* EXTENDED BRACHIOPLASTY:

CANDIDACY FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Ideal candidates for brachioplasty include individuals with:

 	* Significant skin laxity in upper arms
	* Excess skin following massive weight loss
	* Upper arm skin sagging due to aging
	* Desire to improve arm contour and appearance

COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES

For patients with good skin tone seeking minor improvements,
liposuction might offer an alternative or complementary approach to
brachioplasty.

SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS

The procedure involves carefully removing excess skin and fat, with
minimal scarring. While scars will be visible, most patients report
high satisfaction with their results.

ARM LIFT SURGERY (BRACHIOPLASTY) GREENSBORO, NY | DR. MARY ANN C.
CONTOGIANNIS, MD

UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY: ARM LIFT SURGERY EXPLAINED

Brachioplasty, commonly known as arm lift surgery, is a specialized
surgical procedure designed to address loose, hanging skin on the
upper arms. This condition, often referred to as "batwings," can
result from significant weight loss, hormonal changes, or genetic
predisposition.

WHAT CAUSES UPPER ARM SKIN LAXITY?

Skin elasticity naturally decreases with age and after substantial
weight loss. While exercise can improve muscle tone, it typically
cannot effectively tighten loose skin. Brachioplasty offers a
definitive solution by removing excess skin and fat while tightening
supportive tissues.

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

Brachioplasty is performed under general anesthesia and typically
takes up to three hours. The surgeon makes an incision on the
underside of the upper arm to minimize visible scarring. During the
procedure, excess skin and fat are carefully removed, and the
remaining tissue is sculpted to create a smoother, more contoured
appearance.

POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF ARM LIFT SURGERY

 	* Removal of droopy, excess arm skin
	* Improved upper arm contour and shape
	* Enhanced self-confidence
	* Expanded clothing options
	* Minimal, strategically placed scarring

CANDIDACY FOR BRACHIOPLASTY

Ideal candidates for arm lift surgery are healthy individuals bothered
by loose, hanging skin on the upper arms. During a personalized
consultation, Dr. Contogiannis will evaluate your specific anatomy and
aesthetic goals to determine if brachioplasty is the right procedure
for you.

RECOVERY AND AFTERCARE

Recovery from brachioplasty typically spans several weeks. Patients
can expect some initial swelling and bruising, which will gradually
resolve. Most individuals are advised to rest at home for
approximately two weeks and follow specific post-operative
instructions provided by Dr. Contogiannis.

COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES

For comprehensive body contouring, brachioplasty can be combined with
procedures like tummy tuck or thigh lift to achieve more comprehensive
aesthetic results.
