Medilaser Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
Full vs. Mini-Brachioplasty
Medilaser, Cosmetic Surgery and Vein Center performs minimally invasive arm lift surgery which is made possible through liposuction. This reduces the amount of dissection required in conventional surgery. It is called liposuction assisted mini-brachioplasty and liposuction assisted full brachioplasty.
Mini-brachioplasty is performed through a small incision in the armpit that pulls the skin under the arm. The postoperative pain is minimal and the recovery period is short.
Full brachioplasty is performed through an incision in the arm from the elbow to the chest. Although it seems to be a long incision, it is hidden under the arm. Postoperative recovery time is longer, but you are able to perform routine activities. Flabby arms are not a reward after losing so much weight, but beautiful arms after brachioplasty are worth it.
Who Is A Good Candidate For A Minimal Incision Arm Lift?
Healthy patients who have unattractive fat accumulation and moderate saggy skin in their arms, are excellent candidates.
Why Liposuction Is Added To The Procedure?
Because modern liposuction techniques allow surgeons to perform minimal invasive dissection to mobilize extensive amounts of tissue.
