| Brachioplasty (Arm Lift)
in Indiana
Upper arm skin looseness can develop with
weight fluctuation. This excess skin may be removed with
incisions resulting on the inner aspect of the upper arm. If fat
deposits exist, they may be treated with liposuction. Fat
deposits of the inner and outer aspects of the upper arm may be
treated with liposuction alone if skin tone is good. Many
patients require both fat removal with liposuction and excess
skin excision, so combination arm lift and upper arm liposuction
may be performed in these instances. The length of the inner arm
incision with arm lift surgery varies directly with the degree
of skin looseness, and amount of skin of the inner arm that
needs to be removed for adequate skin tightening. After arm lift
with liposuction, or upper arm liposuction alone, a long sleeve
compression garment is worn for two or three weeks
postoperatively.
