The sagging of the arm skin, which is the result of advancing age, may cause quite disturbing results. Because of aging, the arm skin loses its elasticity. However, the fat under the skin is reduced.
This leads to sagging at the upper and lower sides of the arm up to the elbow. Generally, shortness of the arm skin which is disturbing people while wearing short-sleeved clothes, can be successfully removed with arm lift surgery in a short time.
Because the cut is performed behind the arm area during surgery with no visible signs. Thus, people can have an aesthetic appearance without being certain from the outside they undergo arm tension surgery.
People who are smoking should have stopped smoking at least two weeks ago before smoking. Drugs that are likely to cause bleeding before surgery should not be taken.
Aspirin and anti-inflammatory drugs may cause bleeding. Before the operation, people should always tell their doctors about the drugs they use and the operations they have undergone.
The determination of the extent to which the skin’s sagging thickness is considered when determining the patients suitable for arm lift. In some people, sagging may occur due to weight gain. In some cases, liposuction is often performed.
In some people, the abundance of skin is only recovered from the underarm and the procedure is completed. The operation of these people extends from the armpit to the elbow. It is possible to leave scar on the back of the arm after the procedure.
Arm lift is applied to peopel with advanced age, overweight and obesity. People who undergo surgery are usually over 40 years of age and may need to be treated in some cases. In some people, there is a tendency to become abundant in the arm. It is also possible to perform arm lift surgery at an early age.
This operation is performed under local or general anesthesia in accordance with the patient’s condition and offers very successful results. The operation time is quite short, not more than 2 hours.
The technique to be used in the operation lasting about one and a half or two hours is determined during the examination. The operation begins with an incision performed to the region, which is often from the armpit to the elbow.
After the recovery of the skin, the operation is completed with the suture process. People undergoing local anesthesia are discharged from the hospital on the same day. People undergoing surgery under general anesthesia are discharged one day after surgery.
After being discharged, people should rest at home. The first days after the operation, elastic bandage should be used. As the stitching is performed with self-melting ropes in the operation, it is not necessary for people to take stitches.

The risks of arm lift may occur in the same way as all other surgical operations risks. These risks are rarely seen when the operation is performed in a health facility offering hygienic conditions. The incisions during the surgery are not seen easily because they are located behind the arm.
Generally, people do not feel pain after surgery. If seen, these pains are mildly severe. These pains can usually be relieved with painkillers, but people should always consult their doctor before using any drugs.
