UPPER ARM LIFT (BRACHIOPLASTY) PORTLAND, OR | SAMUEL BARTHOLOMEW, MD,
FACS

UNDERSTANDING BRACHIOPLASTY IN PORTLAND

Brachioplasty addresses saggy and loose skin in the underside of the
upper arms, commonly caused by weight fluctuations, aging, and genetic
factors. The procedure targets excess skin that has lost elasticity
and weakened underlying tissues, resulting in a drooping arm
appearance.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ARM LIFT SURGERY

Candidates for brachioplasty typically include individuals who:

 	* Maintain good physical health
	* Have a stable weight
	* Possess excess skin or tissue in the upper arm region
	* Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

COMPREHENSIVE BRACHIOPLASTY BENEFITS

Patients can experience multiple advantages from an upper arm lift,
including:

 	* Restoration of arm skin elasticity
	* Improved body proportions
	* Enhanced muscle definition
	* Increased self-confidence
	* More comfortable clothing options

THE BRACHIOPLASTY PROCEDURE

Dr. Bartholomew performs brachioplasty by making precise incisions on
the inside of the upper arm. The extent of the incision depends on the
amount of excess skin and fat to be removed. Liposuction techniques
may be utilized to reduce fat deposits and create a smoother contour.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Recovery from brachioplasty involves several key considerations:

 	* Initial discomfort and numbness for several days
	* Elevation of arms to minimize swelling
	* Restricted physical activities for several weeks
	* Gradual reduction of surgical marks over time

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

While brachioplasty is generally safe, potential risks include
anesthesia reactions, bleeding, infection, and scarring. Dr.
Bartholomew discusses these potential complications during
comprehensive pre-surgical consultations.
