Procedure: Arm stretching, also known as brachioplasty or arm lift, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms to achieve a more toned and youthful appearance.
Recovery Time: The recovery period for arm stretching surgery typically is 1-2 weeks, and patients should avoid activities that strain the arms for several weeks.
Pre-operative Preparations: Pre-operative preparations may include a physical examination, medical history, and discussions about the desired outcome. Patients may need to discontinue taking certain medications and follow specific post-operative care instructions.
Eligibility: Suitable candidates for arm stretching surgery are individuals with sagging or excess skin on their upper arms. A consultation with a plastic surgeon specializing in body contouring is necessary for evaluation and to discuss expectations.
