If you suffer from loose skin and fat that hangs from your upper arms, an arm lift procedure might just be the answer for you. 
What is an arm lift?
Every year, thousands of people undergo successful upper-arm-lift surgery in Southfield and are pleased with the results. If your weight is normal, but you feel your shape is marred by underarm laxity, or if you have lost a massive amount of weight and are left with excess upper-arm skin, then an arm lift may be for you.
During a Southfield upper arm lift (brachioplasty), Dr. Sayeg reshapes the upper arm to tighten loose skin and remove fat. Removing the excess skin caused by weight loss or natural aging can tighten loose skin that extends from the underarm area to the elbow; liposuction is sometimes used in combination to achieve the best results.
Am I a good candidate for an arm lift?
As long as your weight does not fluctuate, you should expect the results of your upper arm lift to last for many years. Your body will continue to age, including your skin, which may lead to loose skin in the future. If you gain considerable weight after the surgery and then lose the weight, loose skin will return.
How long is recovery from an arm lift?
Dr. Sayeg may place your arms in a compression garment or wrap immediately following surgery. Wear this exactly as directed or when showering.
You will need a few weeks to recover and heal from an arm lift procedure. It will be at least one or two weeks before you can return to work and about ten days before you can drive.
