Arm Lift

With age or after successful weight loss, the elasticity of the connective tissue decreases. Arm lift surgery is the most effective solution for the patients, who want firm and well-formed upper arms. At Estexper Clinic, you will find your own personal specialist and a first-class medical offer.

If the upper arms don’t get in shape despite targeted fitness exercises and muscle building, this is usually due to the skin’s natural aging process. If the tissue is stretched and the arms are “waving,” an upper arm lift can be very helpful. The sagging of the upper arms can be effectively corrected by removing the skin on the inside of the upper arm.

Reasons for arm lift surgery

Hanging upper arms, also known as “wavering arms”, are a problem for many women and often occur with the natural aging process or after successful weight loss. While the skin on the rest of the body shrinks somewhat, it remains stretched out on the upper arms and often looks flappy. The specialists at Estexper Clinic will be happy to provide you with comprehensive information about an arm lift. Then sleeveless clothing is back in fashion.

How does the tightening of the upper arms work?

The specialists at Estexper Clinic have a number of methods to choose from for modeling and tightening the upper arms. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, twilight sleep, or anesthesia. If there are fat deposits, skin tightening can be combined with liposuction. The surgeons suck off the excess fat cells or fat tissue with small, fine cannulas. Then wear a compression bandage. In the consultation appointment, we will inform you about scar care, the exact procedure, and any risks.

Tightening method with little excess skin

If the skin quality is elastic and there is little fat to remove, the natural shrinkage of the skin can regress the skin, leaving the surgeon little to remove the sagging skin. The cut or scar is well hidden in the armpit.

The tightening method for a lot of excess skin

Greater excess skin requires an operative upper arm lift. If there is too much fatty tissue, the incision can be supplemented by a horizontal skin incision. With the incision, which starts in the armpit along the inside of the upper arm, the doctor reduces the skin tissue. A fine longitudinal scar remains. The scar is not visible when the arm is extended. Your doctor also pays great attention to protecting the lymphatic vessels located here.

Aftercare

Compression bandages must be worn for the aftercare. These reduce the risk of bleeding, support the treated regions and help to achieve a beautiful and even tightening result. This also prevents bruising.
