Arm Lift Before & After Case 234

This patient came to us seeking relief from persistent arm fullness and skin laxity caused by lipedema. She shared that her daily activities, clothing choices, and self-confidence were affected by these changes in her upper arms. After conservative treatments did not deliver the results she hoped for, we discussed options, including an arm lift, as a way to remove excess skin and improve comfort.

The procedure, called brachioplasty or arm lift, focused on removing loose skin and improving arm contour. We guided the patient through every stage, from pre-surgical planning to the recovery process. Her recovery involved routine follow-up visits to monitor healing and ensure the best outcome. Swelling and bruising were expected early on, but these improved within weeks.

Her after photos document the smoother silhouette and improved definition of her arms. She reports greater ease with movement and more comfort in clothing. Most importantly, she feels positive about her decision and her experience with Arm Lift in Atlanta.

As a board-certified plastic surgeon, I approach every case with comprehensive consultation, clear education, and a commitment to safety. My early experience as a firefighter and paramedic taught me the importance of trust and open communication, which I carry into my practice today. At our Atlanta office, we use advanced techniques to individualize every surgical plan and support each patient’s body-positivity journey.
