Get Ready for a Sleeveless Summer with an Arm Lift or Liposuction

If you’re looking forward to wearing sleeveless tops and dresses this summer but feel self-conscious about your arms, Los Angeles Plastic Surgery with Dr. John Anastasatos offers solutions to help you achieve the toned, contoured arms you desire. With arm lift surgery (brachioplasty) or arm liposuction, we can reduce sagging skin and stubborn fat to enhance the appearance of your arms, helping you feel confident and summer-ready.

What Causes Sagging or Full Arms?

The upper arms are particularly prone to sagging due to a variety of factors, including:

• Aging: Over time, the skin loses elasticity, leading to sagging or loose skin (sometimes referred to as “bat wings”).
• Weight Loss: After significant weight loss, excess skin may remain, leaving arms looking deflated or stretched.
• Genetics: Some people are naturally predisposed to storing fat in the upper arms, making it difficult to tone the area with diet and exercise alone.

Whether your concern is sagging skin or excess fat, arm lift surgery and liposuction are highly effective options to reshape and tone your arms.

Arm Lift Surgery (Brachioplasty)

An arm lift is designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms. This procedure is ideal for individuals with significant skin laxity that cannot be improved through non-surgical methods. Dr. Anastasatos will carefully remove loose skin and tighten the remaining tissue to create a more sculpted and youthful arm contour.

Benefits of an Arm Lift:

• Eliminates loose, hanging skin
• Tightens and tones the upper arm area
• Improves overall arm shape and proportion
• Provides long-lasting results with proper maintenance

Arm Liposuction

For patients whose primary concern is excess fat rather than sagging skin, arm liposuction may be a better solution. This procedure targets stubborn fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. Dr. Anastasatos uses advanced liposuction techniques to gently remove fat and sculpt the arms, enhancing their natural contours.

Benefits of Arm Liposuction:

• Reduces fat for slimmer, more defined arms
• Minimally invasive with a shorter recovery time
• Preserves skin elasticity for a smoother, more youthful appearance

Which Option Is Right for You?

During your consultation, Dr. Anastasatos will evaluate your arms, skin elasticity, and overall goals to determine the best treatment plan. In some cases, a combination of liposuction and an arm lift may be recommended for optimal results.

Both procedures offer long-lasting results with proper care. After an arm lift, patients typically experience mild swelling and soreness for a few weeks, while those undergoing liposuction often recover more quickly. Dr. Anastasatos and his team will provide detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
