1. Personal Arm Contouring Consultation
A successful brachioplasty requires a meticulous assessment of the upper arm tissue to determine the best approach for a toned and balanced result.
Your Consultation in Istanbul:
- Skin Laxity Assessment: Determining if the concern is primarily excess skin, localized fat, or both.
- Incision Choice: Choosing between a ‘mini’ arm lift (incision hidden in the armpit) or a ‘full’ brachioplasty based on the extent of the sagging.
- Harmony Planning: Ensuring the new arm contours are in perfect proportion with your shoulders and overall body frame.
| Concern | Extent | Surgical Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Mild Sagging | Armpit Area | Mini Brachioplasty |
| ‘Bat Wings’ | Full Upper Arm | Traditional Brachioplasty |
| Localized Fat | No Skin Laxity | VASER Liposuction |
2. The Expert Body Sculptor
Success in arm lift surgery relies on the surgeon’s ability to remove just enough skin to create a firm contour while managing incisions for the best aesthetic outcome.
The Specialist Advantage:
- High-Volume Expertise: Our surgeons specialize in body contouring after significant weight loss, mastering the removal of large amounts of excess tissue.
- Refined Contouring: Focusing on the 360-degree shape of the arm to ensure it looks toned from every angle.
- Meticulous Closure: Utilizing multi-layered suturing techniques to minimize tension on the incision line for beautiful scar healing.
3. Surgical Excellence
Performed under general anesthesia in a JCI-accredited hospital, your procedure focuses on two main goals: removing excess tissue and refining the arm’s shape.
Procedure Highlights:
- Tissue Excision: Removing the ‘bat wing’ skin that no longer retracts due to loss of elasticity.
- Combined Liposuction: Often utilizing VASER technology to remove localized fat and further define the underlying muscle profile.
- Stability and Form: Tightening the underlying supportive tissues that define the arm’s new, firm shape.
Our surgical teams prioritize safety and precision throughout your 1-night hospital stay.
4. Dedicated Recovery Care
Post-operative care is vital for ensuring the skin settles smoothly and your incisions heal with minimal visibility.
Recovery Milestones:
- Immediate Support: You’ll spend one night in our JCI-accredited hospital under professional medical observation.
- Compression Therapy: We provide specialized arm sleeves that must be worn for 6 weeks to minimize swelling and support tissue adherence.
- Return to Activity: Light daily tasks can usually be resumed within a week, while heavy lifting is restricted for 4โ6 weeks.
BB Global Health provides all necessary medications, compression garments, and detailed scar management instructions.
5. Defined, Lasting Results
