Arm Lift Case

Details for Case #2128

This 60-year-old woman visited the offices of Marina Plastic Surgery to discuss her options for ridding her arms of loose, saggy skin at her arms, breasts, and abdomen through Los Angeles liposuction. She was particularly displeased with the way her breasts and arm tissues had begun to look droopy with age, and wanted to regain more youthful appearance by tightening and enhancing those areas. When she met with her surgeon, he was sympathetic and understanding of her goals and helped her create a surgical plan to give her a thorough make-over.

With her surgeon, this patient decided that the best route to accomplish her appearance goals would be to receive a brachioplasty, abdominoplasty, and a breast lift. Together, these three procedures would help her remove excess accumulated skin and fat and reveal a fresh, rejuvenated shape.

Brachioplasty (arm lift) trims away loose arm skin and tightens excess tissues for slimmer-looking arms. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) can tighten abdominal muscles for a firmer and healthier-looking stomach area. Mastopexy (breast lift) lifts and repositions saggy breasts to a more flattering position.

This woman was amazed at the results of her plastic surgery near Pasadena. In her postoperative photos taken a month following surgery, it is evident that although she is still healing from the procedure, her upper arms look much tighter without the excess tissues. Any redness or puckering visible in these photos should fade significantly within a month or two, but already this patients is proud of her new shape and glad she chose Marina Plastic Surgery to rejuvenate her appearance.
