Arm Lift Atlanta, GA

Arm Lift Candidates

An excess of skin and/or fat that hangs from your arms (flabby arms)
Self-conscious about the appearance of your arms
A non-smoker in good overall health
A modest amount of skin elasticity

Arm lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia and takes about 2 hours to complete. The surgery involves an incision on the inside or back of the arm between the elbow and armpit. Most patients also have liposuction to remove excess fat in the upper arms. The supporting tissue beneath the skin is tightened and reshaped with internal, dissolvable stitches, and the skin is smoothed over the newly contoured arm. While the scars are permanent, they often fade considerably over time depending on the patient’s skin type.

Aftercare and Recovery

Most patients can go home a few hours after the procedure. The incisions are dressed, and the arms are wrapped in compression garments to reduce swelling. There may be bruising, swelling, or mild discomfort for up to a week after the procedure. Patients can return to work and daily activities within 2 weeks but should avoid heavy lifting for several weeks after the surgery.

Each patient is unique; therefore, results of treatment may vary.

“Dr. Nahai has been my plastic surgeon for five years. He is absolutely amazing. Talented, qualified, thoughtful, capable! He has a great office staff as well.”

Barbara R.

And looking great, of course!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Nahai. I was very apprehensive, and he was calm and supportive through the whole process. I am 67 and had my eyelids done, full face, and neck lift.
