"...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 Lift Surgeon: Brachioplasty in Los AngelesArm Lift Los AngelesAn arm lift, also called brachioplasty, is used to removed excess skin and fat from the upper arms in patients who have lost a lot of weight or developed excess loose skin due to aging. Scars are the greatest drawback of this operation,
and will extend from the armpit to mid-way down the arm to the elbow. This operation exchanges one cosmetic problem
(loose skin) for another (scars). Those with extremely
saggy skin tend to find this exchange very worthwhile. 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 first 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.
