Brachioplasty

There are several types of brachioplasty, each designed to meet the specific needs of patients. The choice of the right procedure depends on the amount of excess skin, its location, and the patient’s overall goals for cosmetic surgery. Below are some of the most common brachioplasty procedures:

The brachioplasty procedure, also known as a surgical arm lift, will begin with an initial consultation and a thorough examination by the surgeon. During this phase, the surgeon will assess the amount of excess skin and fat in the arm and determine the incision lines.

On the day of surgery, the patient is put under general or local anesthesia. The surgeon then makes the incisions as planned. The location and length of the incisions vary depending on the type of brachioplasty and the amount of sagging skin. For example: In a standard brachioplasty, the incision extends from the armpit to the elbow on the inner side of the arm.

After making the incision, the surgeon carefully removes excess skin and fat and tightens the underlying tissues to improve the shape of the arm. In cases where localized fat is also present, liposuction may be used as part of arm surgery for weight loss.

Finally, the skin is carefully pulled and sutured. It should be noted that brachioplasty is often considered part of a body contouring procedure and may be performed in conjunction with other procedures, such as a thigh lift, to achieve overall body contouring. The initial recovery period after surgery includes wound care and pain management.

Suitable candidates for brachioplasty surgery are usually people who are dissatisfied with the appearance of their arms for various reasons and are seeking arm fat removal or arm lift surgery to improve their shape and proportion. Suitable candidates for arm lift include:

• People whose arm skin has become loose due to aging.
  
• People who have sagging skin on their arms after severe weight loss.
  
• People whose arms are not in proportion to the rest of their body.
  
• People who have lymphedema and fluid accumulation.
  
• People whose exercise and diet have no effect on improving the shape of their arms.
  
• People who are looking for a permanent method to remove sagging arm skin.
  

Before undergoing abdo-arm surgery, it is essential to review your health conditions and individual expectations with a cosmetic surgeon.

The cost of arm slimming surgery or brachioplasty depends on several factors and it is not possible to determine an exact price for it. One of the most important factors is the amount of sagging skin and fat in the arm. The more excess skin and fat there is, the more complicated and time-consuming the surgery will be, and as a result, the higher the cost. The type of surgical technique used also affects the final price. For example, extensive brachioplasty or lipobrachioplasty are usually more expensive than limited-incision brachioplasty.

In addition to the above, the surgeon’s fee, anesthesia costs, hospital or clinic costs, geographical location, and ancillary costs such as medications and post-operative care also play a role in determining the final price. In general, to know the exact cost of arm surgery for weight loss and arm fat removal, it is necessary to consult with an experienced plastic surgeon and find out the exact price after examining and reviewing your individual circumstances. Remember that choosing a skilled surgeon and a reputable clinic has a higher priority than simply looking for the cheapest price.
