"...Dr. Yamini put all my fears to rest with the first appointment. He turned out to have direct experience with body lift operations and the before and after pictures he showed me indicated a great deal of skill in this area. He was also friendly and I felt we understood each other well from the start. I could see he was clearly concerned about giving you the best possible results while ensuring my health and safety at the same time..."

Arm Sculpting: Arm Liposuction & Arm Lifts

<<back to before & after main menu

Sunset Cosmetic Surgery – Home to Beverly Hills and Los Angeles Arm Liposuction and Lifts

Those living in the Beverly Hills area looking for plastic surgeons to perform arm liposuction or lifts can visit our Los Angeles office. The plastic surgeons, Drs. Svehlak & Yamini, are able to sculpt the arms in two ways:

Liposuction - If the skin has decent elasticity, the excess fat can be removed via liposuction.

Brachioplasty - If the skin has little elasticity and there is significant excess skin, aplastic surgeon can perform an arm lift or Brachioplasty. If the skin has little elasticity, and there is significant excess skin, an arm lift, or Brachioplasty, can be performed. Scars are the greatest drawback of this operation and will extend from the armpit to mid-way down the ar, or all the way to the elbow. This operation exchanges one cosmetic problem (loose skin) for another (scars). In general, those with extremely saggy skin are find this exchange worthwhile.

Typical Recovery Time After Arm Liposuction
: The first day after your arm liposuction procedure, you will be groggy from the anesthesia and pain medications. Patients may be asked to wear a compression garment after their surgery to help reduce swelling and post-operative discomfort. Swelling and bruising continually get better with time, but are most noticeable in the frist 1-2 weeks. Most patients are back to work in about a week and can resume moderate physical activity after several weeks to their comfort level.

Typical Recovery Time After Arm Lift or Brachioplasty: The first day after your arm lift procedure, you will be groggy from the anesthesia and pain medications. Patients typically wear banadages in the days following surgery. Swelling (and sometimes bruising) continually get better with time, but are most noticeable in the frist 1-2 weeks. Most patients are back to work in about a week and can resume moderate physical activity after several weeks to their comfort level. Final results occur in about 6 months after the scars have matured.
