Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
What Is an Arm Lift Operation
Arm lift surgery, scientifically referred to as “Brachioplasty,” is a cosmetic procedure aimed at removing excess fat and tightening loose skin in the arms. Luxin Aesthetics specializes in this surgery, which addresses concerns such as sagging skin and irregular arm contours caused by weight loss or aging. Factors like obesity, medical conditions, and hormonal changes can contribute to arm sagging, making Brachioplasty a popular choice for those seeking aesthetic improvement. This procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort and safety.
Methods Employed in the Arm Lift Procedure at Luxin Aesthetics
Non-Surgical Arm Contouring (With Luxin Aesthetics Vaser): Utilizing cutting-edge Vaser technology, this procedure effectively targets fat in the arms without the need for surgery.
Surgical Arm Contouring: In cases of significant sagging or following liposuction, surgical intervention is employed to tighten the skin. Through carefully placed incisions, excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is tightened before closure. Various incision techniques may be utilized, including standard, shaped, and extended incisions.
Ultrasound Fat Reduction: This method utilizes ultrasound energy to precisely target and dissolve fat in specific areas. Once the fat is liquefied, it is removed using suction, resulting in a smoother contour.

Pre-Operation Tips for Arm Lift Procedures
Abstain from smoking for one to two months before undergoing an arm lift procedure at Luxin Aesthetics.
Cease the use of Aspirin, Ibuprofen, and certain vitamins for a period ranging from two weeks to one month prior to the operation, as they may increase the risk of bleeding during the procedure.
Adhere to your doctor’s instructions regarding fasting before the operation.
Refrain from applying moisturizer on the day of the procedure.
Avoid consuming stimulants, green tea, and alcohol beforehand.
Stages Of Arm Lift Operation
During the initial stage, anesthesia is administered, as is customary for all surgical procedures. Luxin Aesthetics employs total anesthesia for arm lifts and cosmetic surgeries. The surgeon makes a precise incision in the armpit, its size and length determined by the extent of fat and skin removal needed. The desired cosmetic enhancements, such as skin tightening, elimination of arm wrinkles, or arm liposuction followed by skin tightening, are then performed. Subsequently, the incision is carefully closed, the arms are bandaged, and the patient is monitored during the recovery phase for optimal results.
