Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
at Atlanta Plastic Surgery, P.C.

Every patient is unique and individual healing times can vary significantly. However, patients can typically expect to return to normal daily activities in approximately two weeks and to a normal exercise regimen in three to four weeks. Your surgeon will give you specific instructions on how to care for the surgical site and drains (if appropriate), medications you may need to take or apply to aid healing, and when to follow up to make sure everything is proceeding as it should. Results will vary from patient to patient.

Arm lift procedures remove excess fat and loose, sagging skin and so are intended to provide extremely long-lasting results. While it is natural that some degree of firmness will be lost as the body ages, patients who maintain stable weight and generally good fitness levels can reasonably expect the results from an arm lift procedure to last a lifetime.
