Brachioplasty allows the removal of excess skin and accumulated fat in the upper arms. The skin in this area presents several challenges: it is very thin, has little elasticity, and is not particularly responsive to exercise. Therefore, the last available option to correct sagging in this area is brachioplasty, which removes excess skin and fat to restore the shape of the arm. This surgery has several modalities, which differ according to the type of incision performed. The selection of the incision type will depend on the amount of excess skin and fat the patient has. It should be noted that the length of the incision is proportional to the amount of loose skin—meaning that the more loose skin there is, the longer the incision will be.
After a Brachioplasty
Our arms will become thinner and lighter, changing the perspective of our body in the mirror, as our appearance will look more harmonious and better to our eyes.
