Arm lift surgery is an increasingly popular plastic surgery procedure in the US and internationally. This procedure combines liposuction and skin removal surgery to restore a youthful, toned look to the upper arm region. The most common reasons for this surgery are age and profound weight loss. Plastic surgeons are seeing more men and women seeking out this procedure but find that many are not educated about the details. If you’ve heard of or thought about arm lift surgery, it’s best to get an informed idea about what this surgery entails before heading into a consultation session with a surgeon.

There are several reasons to look into an arm lift procedure. Depending on your unique body and what your body has experienced, surgical procedures can be minimally invasive or extensive. For men and women in their late 40s and early 50s, you may find that even an active lifestyle cannot reverse the signs of aging. Your underarms may become flabby and the skin start to sag. Diet and exercise will not help reverse this effect. Chances are if you live an active lifestyle, your arm lift procedure will simply require a surgeon to remove excess skin. Plastic surgeons can also reconstruct muscles to correct lost tone. For those who have lost a significant amount of weight, you may not only have excess skin but old fat that cannot be removed through diet and exercise. At any age, the longer your body retains excess fat the harder it is to remove. Your surgery will be more extensive and require some liposuction.

The basics of the procedure address the problematic area in the lower region of the upper arm and arm pit. The procedure can be minimally invasive or extensive, as discussed previously. You will be put under general anesthesia for the procedure. After the procedure, most plastic surgeons suggest a week of rest and several weeks of limited activity, especially reaching with your arms. Although results can vary, most patients find that revision surgery is unnecessary.

Plastic surgeons also find that many patients walk through their doors looking to arm lift surgery as a solution to their problems when diet and exercise has not been considered. Before you choose to make an appointment for a consultation, it is important to consider whether you can handle transformation on your own through diet and weight training. Just because you are interested in the surgery and committed to your decision does not make you a good candidate for surgery. Men and women in their 20s and 30s of average weight are rarely good candidates, for this surgery despite their general level of health.

When considering arm lift surgery, keep this information in mind. Plastic surgeons prefer to have in depth conversations and want prospective patients to fully understand the procedure they are considering. If you feel comfortable with what you’ve learned here, you are more prepared for a consultation.
