Those “bat wings” on your upper arms can fly and go away! Not literally, of course, but practically and by a surgery! Bat wings are another name given to the deflated rolls of fat on your upper arms. Apparently, you can let them go away by undergoing a surgery called brachioplasty.
A brachioplasty, also called arm lift or arm reduction, is a popular body sculpting procedure that reshapes and tightens the back of your upper arm, from the arm to the elbow. Although brachioplasty is not a substitute for weight loss, it is still very helpful to remove excess skin and tissue and get a smoother appearance for the upper arm.
You can choose brachioplasty (arm lift) to remove the sagging skin of the arm, which is often hard to hide and very difficult to treat with other options. But it doesn’t end here! Indeed, you will get multiple benefits if you choose arm lift surgery, including:
Your surgeon will need two to three hours to complete the surgery and they usually follow the next steps:
During arm lift surgery, your surgeon gives you medications to help you relax and feel no pain at all. Intravenous sedation and general anesthesia are two main options.
Your surgeon will make an incision on the inside or back of your arm. Sometimes, the incision runs from the underarm (axilla) to just above the elbow. The length and pattern of the incision are determined by the amount and location of excess skin that your surgeon intends to remove.
Finally, your wounds will be closed with absorbable sutures or stitches, which will be removed within one to two weeks later.
Brachioplasty (arm lift) is a relatively safe surgery. However, as the case with all surgeries, brachioplasty still carries some potential risks, such as:
