Am I a Good Candidate for an Arm Lift?

The remaining skin is then tightened and reshaped to create a more toned and youthful appearance. The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours and is performed under general anesthesia.

Recovery and Results
What to Expect

It is important to follow post-operative instructions, such as avoiding strenuous activity and wearing a compression garment to help reduce swelling and provide support during the healing process.
Pain and discomfort can be managed with prescription pain medication, and most patients can return to work and other normal activities within a few days. However, it is important to avoid strenuous activity and heavy lifting for several weeks to ensure proper healing.
