Before & After
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENTFrequently Asked Questions
Scars after a brachioplasty are typically long and thin, running along the inner part of the upper arm from the elbow to the armpit. They can vary in length depending on the extent of the surgery and may be noticeable but can often fade over time.
Potential risks of a brachioplasty include scarring, infection, bleeding, hematoma, poor wound healing, nerve damage, and asymmetry.
The typical recovery timeline for brachioplasty involves about 1-2 weeks of initial downtime, followed by a gradual return to normal activities over 4-6 weeks.
Yes, significant weight fluctuations can potentially affect the results of a brachioplasty. Gaining or losing a significant amount of weight after the surgery may lead to changes in the shape and appearance of your arms. It's important to maintain a stable weight to preserve the desired outcome of the procedure. Consult with Dr.Hill for specific guidance on weight management before and after brachioplasty.
While it can improve the contour and appearance of the arms, it does not directly increase muscle tone or build muscle. The primary goal of a brachioplasty is to address concerns such as "bat wings" or sagging skin in the upper arms, which often occurs due to aging, significant weight loss, or other factors. By removing the excess skin and fat, a brachioplasty can create a firmer and more streamlined appearance in the arms. A brachioplasty focuses on improving the aesthetics of the arm's contour, while muscle-building exercises aim to increase muscle size and tone.
The longevity of the results from a brachioplasty (arm lift) can vary from person to person based on factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and age. While the procedure can provide long-lasting improvements to the contour and appearance of the arms, it's important to understand that the natural aging process will continue to affect the skin and tissues over time.
