BRACHIOPLASTY

One of the most dramatic changes after weight loss is the contour of the arms. No matter how much you exercise, the loose skin of the upper arms usually does not retract.

Why consider an arm lift?

 
 

At Plastic Surgery of Austin, the arm lift also includes liposuction of the arms. After a careful examination of your concerns, a personalized treatment plan will be created. Dr. Chow will first remove any remaining fat from the upper arm and then remove the excess skin. Incision placement is critical to a successful arm lift.

What are the advantages of an arm lift?

 
 
  • Toned and slim upper arms

  • A better fit in sleeveless clothing and swimwear

  • Increased self-confidence

  • Long-lasting results

  • Reduced sagging and excess fat underneath the arms

  • Effective where diet and exercise isn’t enough

Who makes a good candidate for an Austin tummy tuck?

The best way to determine if an arm lift is right for you is to schedule your private consultation with Dr. Chow in the privacy of his Austin, Texas office.

He will spend the time to understand your unique needs and concerns, and discuss all of the best treatment options for you. At Plastic Surgery of Austin, we believe a good decision is a fully-informed decision. In general, good candidates for a tummy tuck are:

An ideal candidate for an arm lift is someone experiencing the presence of excess skin that droops from their upper arms, which may lead to both self-consciousness and discomfort. Given that weight fluctuations can impact the appearance of the arms, the most suitable candidates for an arm lift are those who have maintained a stable weight for a minimum of six months.

Furthermore, individuals considering elective plastic surgery should be in sound mental and physical health. They should not be dealing with any significant ongoing medical conditions that could disrupt their procedure or recovery process. It is also crucial for patients to be non-smokers and harbor realistic expectations regarding the anticipated outcome.

Will I have scars after my arm lift?

Scarring is one of the primary concerns for an arm lift patient. Dr. Chow carefully studies your body’s natural creases and hides the incision on the inner folds of the arm. This keeps the incision hidden when your arm is down by your side. We are passionate about scar care at Plastic Surgery of Austin.

Scar care starts before the incision is ever made. Dr. Chow’s gentle handling and meticulous suturing techniques allow for optimal healing. Once healed, the PSoATX scar rehabilitation protocol combines scientifically proven creams, laser treatments, massage and injectables to further minimize the appearance of scars.
