Throughout this article, we will explore one procedure that is talked about less than others, but still essential for many individuals. This procedure is called brachioplasty. At APS, we concentrate on helping our clients find a solution that fits their needs. Most of the time that starts with educating them about the procedures we offer. With this blog, we will explore brachioplasty and the benefits it can provide. Join us learning more about this fascinating procedure.
The procedure known as a brachioplasty is commonly known as an arm lift. It is a surgery that reshapes the under portion of the upper arm region to the elbow. The goal of this procedure is to achieve smoother skin and a more attractive contour of the arm. This procedure can often be paired with liposuction to reduce any localized pockets of fat. The conditions treated with an arm lift are often a result of the loss of elasticity in the skin and underlying tissue of the upper arm. Significant weight loss, aging, or heredity factors can result in skin that has overstretched and loses the ability to retract and cannot be corrected by weight loss.
The main goal is to reduce the excess sagging skin on the arm. You can also see the tightening and smoothing of the underlying tissue that shapes the arm. Plastic surgeons also find that this procedure helps individuals stay ahead of the natural aging process.
