What Is An Arm Lift?
Sometimes, the skin on your upper arms can feel loose or appear saggy. This can happen for different reasons, like aging, weight loss, or genetics. Arm lift surgery, also called brachioplasty, at Plastic Surgery Institute of Dayton, Inc. is a procedure designed to tighten and reshape the upper arms. It removes extra skin and fat, leaving a firmer, smoother contour. Many people choose this treatment to improve how their arms look and to feel more confident wearing sleeveless clothing. If you are ready to explore arm skin removal options, we encourage you to schedule a consultation with the Plastic Surgery Institute of Dayton, Inc. in Centerville, OH.
How Is An Arm Lift Performed?
An arm lift is typically performed under general anesthesia. Your surgeon will make an incision, typically along the underside of your upper arm. The exact length and location of the incision will depend on the amount of skin and fat being removed. Excess skin is carefully excised, and arm fat removal may be performed using liposuction techniques. Once the area is contoured, the remaining skin is tightened and secured with sutures to create a smoother, more toned appearance. Your surgeon will take care to achieve symmetry and natural-looking results. The procedure usually takes a few hours, but this can vary based on your individual needs. Our surgical team will aim to minimize the appearance of scars by placing incisions in less noticeable areas. Over time, scars will fade and become less noticeable with proper care.

Plastic Surgery Institute of Dayton, Inc. Reviews
Good people very caring , I don’t have family here in Ohio so having a staff that cares means a lot to this southern gal !
Dr. Hedrick carefully closed a fairly large hole left by removal of a deep melanoma removed from mom's temple by another excellent surgeon, Dr. Tuttle from Kettering oncology. Very happy with his work at only the third day following surgery. Minimal drainage, almost no swelling, and very light, almost unnoticeable bruising. 0 pain unless I press to hard in cleaning as directed. Far better than I was expecting. Personally, I find him very personable with a good sense of humor that is appropriately applied in timely fashion. He thoughtfully explains each step and thoroughly answers any questions. I can't imagine what else we could expect beyond what he has provided. Thank you!
Amazing group.
Dr. Hedrick was great! He got me into the office quickly, took the time to explain everything and alleviated all my concerns about the size of the scar needed to remove my skin cancer.
I love Dr Fox and everyone at this office!
