Arm Lift Surgery Bangalore, India

Arm lift surgery, also known as Brachioplasty, is a procedure that reshapes the arms by removing excess skin and fat, resulting in smoother skin and better-proportioned arm contours and appearance.
 
Indication:
  • You have extra soft tissue on your upper arm.
  • You do not have conditions such as Hidradenitis Suppurativa, a chronic infection of the sweat glands in the armpits, that could impede healing or increase your risk for surgery
  • You are not a women who had a radical mastectomy or extensive breast cancer surgery, as the risk of developing chronic arm swelling following the procedure is more.
 
Procedure:
Arm Lift  Surgery is performed under general anesthesia.
Pre operative assessment and essential markings are done, including the incision line. Photographs are taken.
Usually takes about 1-2 hours depending on the amount of reduction. The surgeon will usually make a long incision between your elbow and armpit. However, depending on your condition and situation, the incision may be small as well. Skin and fat segments are removed, and the remaining skin and tissue is lifted to create a tight, smooth appearance. The wound is properly dressed and small tubes (drains) may be inserted to drain any fluid or blood.
 
Side effects:
Swelling, bruising, seroma, hematoma, wound dehiscence.
 
Recovery:
You may be required to stay in the hospital for one to two days. Dressings or bandages may be applied to your incisions following surgery. To reduce swelling and support your operation site as it heals, you may be wrapped in an elastic bandage or a compression garment.
  • You may need to take a few days off work to rest depending on the extent of your procedure.
  • You should expect pain and discomfort during the first week of recovery, which can be managed with pain relievers.
  • Heavy lifting, strenuous exercise, swimming and strenuous sports should be avoided for at least six to eight weeks
  • Scars will be permanent but will fade over time
 
Results:
The results can be seen in 2 months time when the swelling reduces. You can benefit from your brachioplasty results indefinitely if you maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine.
