Arm Lift Surgery in Edmonton: Rejuvenate Your Arms with Dr. Brandon Ball
Are you struggling with sagging skin or excess fat in your upper arms? An arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, might be the solution you’re looking for.
At Dr. Brandon Ball’s plastic surgery practice in Edmonton, Alberta, we offer state-of-the-art arm lift procedures to help you achieve the toned, contoured arms you desire.
Understanding Arm Lift Surgery
An arm lift is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms, resulting in a more toned and youthful appearance.
This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss or are dealing with the effects of aging on their arm tissue.
Why Consider an Arm Lift?
Many people find that diet and exercise alone aren’t enough to address sagging skin and stubborn fat in the arms.
An arm lift can provide numerous benefits, including:
1. Improved arm contour and shape
2. Elimination of excess, hanging skin
3. Reduction of fatty tissue in the upper arms
4. Enhanced confidence in sleeveless clothing
5. A more proportionate overall body appearance
Candidates for Arm Lift Surgery
Ideal candidates for arm lift surgery are individuals who:
• Have excess skin and fat in the upper arm area
• Are at a stable weight
• Have realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcome
• Are in good overall health
• Do not smoke or are willing to quit before surgery
The Arm Lift Procedure: What to Expect
During your initial consultation at our Edmonton office, Dr. Ball will assess your arms, discuss your goals, and determine if you’re a suitable candidate for the procedure. He’ll explain the surgery in detail, answer any questions you may have, and address your concerns.
The arm lift surgery itself typically involves the following steps:
1. Administration of general anesthesia for the surgery
2. Incision placement (usually on the inside or back of the arm, extending from the arm pit to the elbow)
3. Removal of excess skin and fat
4. Tightening and reshaping of underlying tissues
5. Closing of incisions with sutures
In some cases, liposuction may be combined with the arm lift to achieve optimal results. The procedure usually takes 2-3 hours, depending on the extent of the treatment required.
Recovery and Results
Following your arm lift surgery, you can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Dr. Ball and our experienced staff will provide detailed post-operative instructions to ensure proper healing and minimize risks.
Most patients can return to light activities within 1-2 weeks, but strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for 4-6 weeks.
As you heal, you’ll notice a significant improvement in the contour and appearance of your arms. The final results of your arm lift will become apparent as swelling subsides, typically within 2-3 months post-surgery.
Risks and Considerations
As with any surgical procedure, arm lift surgery carries some risks. These may include:
• Bleeding
• Infection
• Scarring
• Changes in skin sensation
• Asymmetry
• Fluid accumulation
Dr. Ball will discuss these potential risks in detail during your consultation and take all necessary precautions to minimize them.
