Body Contouring Case #6165
Before
After
Brachioplasty before and after pictures by arm tuck specialist in Los Angeles Dr. Younai Sagging arms can be caused by a variety of factors that include aging, weight gain, and weight loss. This 50-year-old woman from Burbank CA had a lot of saggy skin in her underarms that made it difficult for her to wear short sleeved shirts without having her arms flapping around. It made her very self-conscious and led her to seek a plastic surgeon to see what could be done. She met with Board-Certified plastic surgeon Dr. Younai and reviewed his many brachioplasty before and after photos. The type of Brachioplasty performed by your plastic surgeon depends upon the amount and location of your excess skin. If excess hanging skin is located within two inches from the armpit, your cosmetic surgeon can potentially pull up and tuck this excess skin into the armpit with an Axillary Brachioplasty or Mini Arm Tuck. For those whose excess skin extends like a “Bat Wing” from the armpit to the elbow, the only option is the complete removal of the arm flab in a Standard Brachioplasty or Standard Arm Lift. The extent of an Arm Lift or Brachioplasty surgery and the length of the scars depend on the amount of excess skin as well as its location.
