Arm lift surgery; It is the process of removing the sagging that occurs in the arm as a result of conditions such as age progression, excessive weight gain and loss by removing excess skin in the area.
With aging, the muscle ratio in the body begins to decrease, the skin loses its elasticity and the fat tissue under the skin decreases. This causes sagging in the upper inner part of the arm and negatively affects the body image.
With arm lift surgery, the sagging problem in the skin of your arm will be solved definitively and you will have young and taut looking arms.
Arm sagging may be due to old age or may occur due to rapid weight gain or rapid weight gain and loss.
With aging, the elasticity of the skin and collagen fibres deform and subcutaneous fat decreases. This can cause loosening and sagging in body tissues. When these sagging deformations are seen on the arm, it causes sagging of the arm skin.
In those who gain and lose weight rapidly, the loss of fat and muscle in the arm area causes the skin to become loose. As a result, sagging occurs.
For arm lift surgery, the sagging rate of the skin and the thickness of the skin tissue are first checked. In cases where the arm is thick, liposuction is often applied and then the loosened skin is removed. In cases where the sagging is seen only under the armpit, the sagging is removed with a short stitching process that does not leave a scar on the removed skin. However, patients often have a sagging extending from the armpit to the elbow. In this case, it is natural to leave a stitch mark on the inside of the arm after the procedure. However, this scar is not clearly visible when viewed.
After the operation lasting approximately 1.5-2 hours, the patient is discharged on the same day. The patient can take a shower after 2 days.
The patient can return to social life in a few days. However, care should be taken to keep the arm above the heart level in the first week after the operation. As a result of the operation, there may be bruises and colour changes in the operation area. These will disappear spontaneously within a week. The skin may also feel numb for a while.
The patient should keep the arm area hygienic against the risk of infection. Carefully protect the arm against impacts and traumas. Avoid movements that will strain the arm. Depending on the patient's condition, sports can be started after 4-6 weeks.

Devamını OkuThere is no serious risk in arm lift surgery other than the risks of general surgery. The operation is performed under local anaesthesia.
When the arm lift operation is performed by an experienced and skilful doctor in a modern operating theatre environment, the risks are very low. However, if a good operation is not performed, the scar may be poorly located and may look bad, bleeding may occur, infection may occur, wounds and stitches may open, or the arm skin may not be stretched sufficiently.
Postoperative pain is unlikely to occur, but if pain occurs, it can be relieved with painkillers.
Thanks to the techniques we use in the operation, the scars after the operation are very light. With the effect of the creams we will give you to use in the post-operative healing process, the body will be well healed and the scars will be well indistinct after 5-6 months.
In addition, the incision is made so that it remains in the invisible area on the back of the arm.
It is important to be over 18 years old. No special conditions are required, anyone with arm sagging problems, overweight, rapid weight loss, skin sagging problems in the arm due to old age can have arm lift surgery.
With arm stretching exercises, the arm can be weakened and excess weight can be removed. However, the sagging problem is more related to the loss of elasticity and loosening of the skin. Although many people lose weight by doing sports, they can get rid of their fats, increase their arm muscle mass and try to provide more tension, but they still need to have arm lift surgery for the sagging problem in their skin.
Apart from the general risks of surgery as mentioned above, there may be risks of infection and delayed wound healing.
If only arm lift surgery is to be performed, local anaesthesia is preferred. If it will be performed together with other operations, it may be under general anaesthesia. The doctor will decide according to the patient's condition and inform the patient.
A few days after the operation, the patient can return to social life using a corset and those who do not perform heavy physical work can return to work.
Showering can be started 2 days after arm lift aesthetics.
Postoperative corset use is preferred for 3 reasons. It is recommended to use for 3 weeks.
It is recommended to wait up to 4 weeks to do sports after arm lift surgery.
