What Is Arm Lift Surgery?
Excess skin is a common complaint many people have as they get older or lose weight. At San Diego Plastic Surgery Center, we offer arm lift surgery (also known as brachioplasty) as a procedure for people who cannot manage to tighten and tone their arms with exercise and diet. Loose skin from the elbow to the upper arm is very common, particularly for women and men who have lost weight or are advancing in age. An arm lift removes this excess, hanging skin, often known as "bat wings." Our lead practitioner, Dr. Jose Rodriguez, is a board-eligible plastic surgeon in San Diego, CA who is knowledgeable in skin tightening and fat removal procedures. If you would like to learn more information about how brachioplasty can improve the contour of your arms, please schedule an appointment with Dr. Rodriguez and our staff at your earliest convenience.
How Does Arm Lift Surgery Work?
All procedures at San Diego Plastic Surgery Center are done in the comfort and convenience of our private operating room. An arm lift is typically performed with the patient under general anesthesia and may take a few hours to finish. The sagging skin will be surgically excised from the elbow and continuing to the underarm. The incision will be placed to be as concealed as possible, although it will most likely leave a visible scar. If liposuction is required to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat, this will be performed as well. Once the skin is tightened, it will be stitched back into place. If Dr. Rodriguez decides it is safe, your procedure may include additional treatments, such as a tummy tuck or abdominal liposuction.
What Are the Benefits of An Arm Lift?
Arm lift surgery can provide a number of convenient benefits for San Diego, CA men and women, including:
- Appropriate for trouble spots that have proven to be resistant to fitness efforts or healthy eating
- Greater body image and satisfaction when buying clothing
- Improves the look of excess skin due to major weight loss or aging
- Decreased friction, sensitivity, and irritation in the chest and arms
Rodriguez Plastic Surgery Reviews
Words can not explain what a marvelous, ethical, moral and fantastic doctor RODRIGUEZ is. After being butchered by two different plastic surgeons six years ago, I experienced pain, swelling, and many other issues. Finding doctor Rodriguez was such a blessing. He actually listens, sees me and my needs, he talks with care and tells the pros and cons. After one surgery he fixed me beautifully I feel and look gorgeous and very happy I have my body back. Doctor Rodriguez is my Arcangel. He is the Michaelangelo of plastic surgeries. There are not enough stars in the universe to give him. He saved me from six years of suffering. God bless you and yours always doctor Rodriguez. You are the best of the best thank you for what you did for me.
