Arm Lift Beverly Hills

Some people can exercise their way to sculpted upper arms, but many others struggle with loose, sagging skin that no amount of exercise can resolve. If your skin has lost its youthful, resilient quality and you have saggy upper arms, an arm lift performed by Dr. Shafa will restore a firm, fit look to the upper arms and remove those dreaded “bat wings” that can develop with age.

Your arms may be an embarrassing aesthetic problem. Excess skin and fat develop, and the upper arms appear loose and flabby. This cosmetic problem can be treated with a custom arm lift in Beverly Hills. The result? Youthful, sculpted upper arms that are firm and shapely.

What is an Arm Lift?

Every arm lift surgery performed by Dr. Shafa is 100 percent customized. An evaluation of your condition is the first step in determining the surgical approach that will produce the ideal result for you.

Mini arm lift: A mini arm lift involves placing an incision in the underarm, through which excess fat and skin are excised (removed). This approach is appropriate when the loose skin and tissue are primarily in the armpits and the uppermost section of your arms.
Full arm lift: A full arm lift involves placing incisions along the underside of your arms, from armpit to elbow. A full arm lift is the appropriate surgical technique if you have a substantial quantity of loose skin and fat.

What is the Recovery Time From an Arm Lift?

Arm lift surgery in Beverly Hills is an outpatient procedure. Once the operation is complete, you can return home to rest and heal. You must avoid lifting your arms above your shoulder level for three to four weeks or any physical motions that could stress the incisions. You will have pain medication to keep you comfortable. Dr. Shafa will see you at several follow-up appointments and closely monitor your progress. Within a few weeks, your new look is revealed – with the aesthetic problem of saggy upper arms gone forever.
