Arm Lift Surgery
An integral part of the body’s aesthetics, an arm lift is one of the surgeries that patients may need for many reasons. The main complaint that patients experience is limp arms. The prolapsed arms that negatively affect the aesthetic appearance of women cause a loss of self-confidence.
Not being able to wear short-sleeved clothes due to hanging arms, choosing long-sleeved garments to hide the arms in summer, and not being at peace with yourself because of the aesthetic appearance are the main factors for an arm lift.
We organize your arm lift surgery in Istanbul, Turkey. Our operations are performed in a fully equipped private hospital by a specialized plastic surgeon. As Health & Beauty Travel, we carry out the entire process together.
Causes of Sagging Skin on the Arms
- The skin can hang on the arms due to aging. If the elastic structure of the upper arms is lost and the fatty tissue under the skin decreases, an arm lift may be necessary.
- Due to the effect of gravity, the more massive arm skin will sag over time. The impact of gravity, together with the results of aging, accelerates this process.
- In patients who have undergone gastric bypass surgery, the arms may droop a lot. This is because sudden weight loss is observed after a stomach reduction. This causes prolapse in the arms. In general, after gastric bypass surgery, patients may require abdominoplasty, thigh lift, and arm lift.
- Rapid weight gain and loss can cause the skin to hang on the arms. The weight loss with the wrong diet programs such as crash diets causes the yo-yo effect. People who have lost weight quickly also gain weight very quickly. This also negatively affects the skin of the arms.
How is the Arm Lift Operation Performed?
The arm lift operation first begins with the evaluation. It is checked whether the armpit’s prolapse is up to the elbow or limited to the armpit.
Typically, the arm lift incision can extend from the armpit to the elbow. Given the skin thickness, vaser liposuction can be used, and an arm lift can be combined with liposuction.
Lifting the arms takes an average of 2 hours. It is performed under general anesthesia. During an arm lift operation, the patient will spend one night in the hospital. After the procedure, an elastic bandage is used around the arms. It would help if you moved your arms as little as possible.
Which Operations Can Be Performed in Combination With an Arm Lift?
