Aging, genetic factors and excessive weight gain and loss lead to a decrease in skin elasticity. Increased or decreased subcutaneous adipose tissue can lead to sagging and deformities in the arms. This makes the person look unhealthier and older than they are.
Deformations in the arm can be corrected with arm lift surgery. Thanks to the arm lift operation, people can have firmer and younger looking arms.
How to perform Arm Lift Surgery
Arm lift surgery is generally performed for the treatment of sagging arms. These operations are usually carried out under general anesthesia and rarely under local anesthesia. This operation takes 1-2 hours on average.
During the operation, incisions are made extending from the inside of the arms to the armpit. Here, the sagging skin and adipose tissue are removed. The scars are often on the back of the arm, where they are least visible from the outside.
In cases of severe adiposity and sagging, the patient can stay in the hospital for one day. Liposuction is considered sufficient in cases where the skin quality is good, there is no sagging, that is, there is only excess fat accumulation. If there is sagging skin as well as adipose tissue, arm lift surgery is necessary.
Post-Surgery Scarring
Like all surgical operations, arm lift surgery also leaves some scars in the surgical area. Nevertheless, these scars usually fade over time and turn closer to the skin color.
