Arm Lift
A surplus of skin or as the case may be also of hypodermic fat on the inner side of arms is removed in an operation under general anesthesia lasting approximately 90 minutes and requiring a 24 hour hospitalization. The resulting scar′s shape resembles letter Y or T and runs on the inner side of the arm very close under the armpit and on the boundary of the inner and rear side of the arm.
The time of surgical treatment is 2-3 weeks, returning to a full load conditions is possible after 4 weeks. The purpose of this surgical intervention is a reduction of the volume of arms and stretching of the loosened skin. In some cases, the result of this operation can be improved by vibration-assisted tumescent liposuction performed close to the operation field.
