Arm elevator without surgery

As the number of non-invasive procedures in aesthetic surgery increases, more and more people are opting for this type of treatment to tighten their bodies. While many people opt for abdominoplasties to combat sagging in the abdominal area, arm shaping is also a popular treatment.  Armlifting without surgery is performed in a minimally invasive manner using combinations such as liposuction and radiofrequency.

Is arm elevator possible without surgery?

Unlike arm surgery that causes scarring from the elbow to the armpit, arm elevator without surgery is becoming increasingly popular. With liposuction, the area can be completely sculpted around the arm to achieve a tight appearance. This not only provides a good aesthetic appearance, but also maximizes volume reduction.

Radiofrequency can be applied to people with loss of elasticity in the skin because it offers noticeable skin tightening. Armlifting without surgery with radiofrequency stimulates collagen production in the arm area, resulting in marked tightening and shaping. These combinations help patients not only slim their arms, but also avoid large and noticeable scars caused by surgery.

How can sagging arms be reduced?

Major weight loss unfortunately results in severe and visible loss of elasticity in areas such as the forearms and abdominal area, which cannot withstand gravity. Although regular exercise and weight lifting can somewhat reverse this appearance, treatments such as surgical or nonsurgical arm lifting are needed to achieve a tight and healthy appearance.

Although surgery is one of the most effective ways to combat sagging of the arms, people without severe loss of elasticity may opt for minimally invasive methods. This eliminates scarring and the risks of surgery and allows for a quicker return to social life.

For those with excess fat in the arm area, liposuction may be used first, followed by shaping treatments with radio frequency to tighten and shape the area.

Who is arm elevator without surgery suitable for?

There are those who have such loss of elasticity and sagging that surgery and incisions are necessary, but there are also those who can benefit from arm lifting without surgery. These individuals are good candidates for combinations of treatments such as radiofrequency and liposuction. In them, for example, a slight sagging is noticeable when the arms are moved. However, when there is a significant amount of excess skin, surgery will likely be recommended.

Why is arm elevator surgery more difficult?

Armlifting surgery involves the surgical removal of excess skin on the top and back of the arms to achieve a tighter appearance. Because incisions are required, this is an invasive procedure. The incision is made along the inside of the arm, and these scars will usually remain visible after surgery. This can be a concern for people who do not want scars.

Unlike non-surgical armlifting, surgery requires a recovery period, and it may take several weeks for patients to resume their daily activities. Although armlifting surgery can offer significant improvement in the appearance of the arms, non-surgical options, because of shorter recovery times and fewer risks, may be preferable for many people.

Which option should you choose?

Whether you are a suitable candidate for nonsurgical arm lifting or surgery depends on your overall health and, of course, the severity of sagging and loss of elasticity in your arms. For patients with significant excess skin due to severe weight loss, nonsurgical arm lifting procedures may not be sufficient. However, for mild loss of elasticity, regular nonsurgical armlifting treatments can produce satisfactory results.
