What is Brachioplasty?

Brachioplasty is a surgical procedure designed to tighten the skin and reduce excess fat in the upper arms. This procedure can help to reshape and contour the arms, giving you a firmer and more toned appearance.

The Procedure

During a brachioplasty, our skilled surgeons make incisions on the underside or back of your arm, ensuring minimal scarring. The excess skin and fat are then removed, and the remaining skin is tightened and sutured into place. The procedure typically takes a few hours and is performed under general anesthesia.

Benefits of Brachioplasty

Brachioplasty offers numerous benefits, including:

  • Improved arm contour and definition
  • Tighter and toned appearance
  • Increased self-confidence
  • Enhanced ability to wear sleeveless clothing
  • Reduced discomfort caused by excess skin

Recovery and Results

After the brachioplasty procedure, it is normal to experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. We will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery process. It's important to follow these instructions carefully to optimize your healing and final results.

Results from brachioplasty are generally long-lasting, but they can be influenced by factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and aging. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and weight can help prolong the outcome of the procedure.

Is Brachioplasty Right for You?

Candidates for brachioplasty are individuals who:

  • Have excess skin and fat on their upper arms
  • Are in good overall health
  • Have realistic expectations for the procedure
  • Are committed to following pre and post-operative instructions

During a consultation with our experienced surgeons at Nasseri Medical Centre & Medspa, we will evaluate your specific needs and discuss the best approach to help you achieve your desired results.

FAQs

How long is the recovery period?

The recovery period for brachioplasty varies from patient to patient. Generally, it takes a few weeks for the initial swelling and bruising to subside. Strenuous activities should be avoided for a few weeks to allow proper healing.

Are there any risks or complications?

As with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with brachioplasty. These include infection, poor wound healing, scarring, and changes in sensation. Our skilled surgeons will discuss these risks with you during your consultation and take appropriate measures to minimize them.

Will there be visible scarring?

While scarring is an inevitable part of any surgical procedure, our surgeons use advanced techniques to minimize scarring and hide incisions in inconspicuous locations. Over time, most scars fade and become less visible.

How much does brachioplasty cost?

The cost of brachioplasty can vary depending on several factors, including the extent of the procedure, surgical techniques used, and geographical location. During your consultation at Nasseri Medical Centre & Medspa, we will provide you with an accurate cost estimate tailored to your individual case.
