  • Arm lift | Sagging arms

    Arm lift | Sagging arms

    The arm lift is one of the cosmetic procedures that are performed in the event of sagging arms and the failure of all other therapeutic and natural attempts, as these sagging are surgically removed, in addition to that the arm lift can be done alone or with the option of liposuction in the arms to enhance the final results of the operation.

    What is an arm lift?

    The operation depends on tightening the sagging arms, starting from the armpit area to the elbow, as well as suctioning the fat accumulated in the upper part of the arm, tightening and softening the tissues in that area, and attractively highlighting the muscles, as the skin in that area is then flabby and not taut for several reasons. Dr. Yasser Badi will explain it in the next paragraph.

    Reasons for Sagging arms

    Sagging arms is one of the most annoying things for women, which makes them resort to an arm lift, and many reasons lead to the appearance of sagging, and these reasons are:

    • Decrease in the percentage of collagen and elastin in the skin due to advancing age, then the skin is more likely to sag and lose its elasticity.
    • The presence of some hormonal changes in the body, such as an increase in the level of estrogen in women, affects the shape of the body in general.
    • Muscle weakness in the arms area occurs as a result of lack of exercise.
    • Lack of vitamins and minerals in the body due to not eating each of the fruits and vegetables in sufficient quantities.
    • Sudden weight loss over a short period also leads to sagging skin.
    • Obesity.
    • Not drinking water regularly during the day, leads to dry skin and loss of moisture necessary to maintain skin elasticity and not sagging.

    Candidates for an arm lift

    There is a set of characteristics and factors based on which people are known to be eligible for the operation, as Dr. Yasser Badi explains these factors, which are:

    • An increase in the percentage of fat in the arm makes the skin around it flabby in an annoying way.
    • If the patient has had liposuction, he is probably a good candidate for this process.
    • The patient must be an adult who does not suffer from any serious diseases that may affect his ability to recover from the operation or expose him to danger during the operation.
    • The patient should not have any skin diseases that may expose him to the risk of internal infection, such as eczema and psoriasis.
    • To suffer from sagging and relaxation in the lower part of the arm, and increased skin elasticity and stretching.
    • Sagging skin is associated with significant weight loss.

    Preparations before arm lift

    Dr. Yasser Badi makes sure of several things before operating, as he discusses with the patient in the pre-operative consultation:

    • Not having diseases that prevent the operation.
    • Fasting for 8 hours before the operation.
    • Consult with the doctor about the reasons for the operation.
    • Carrying out the necessary tests and analyses, such as a complete blood picture and coagulation functions.
    • The doctor determines the areas that can be liposuction and skin tightening.

    Steps to perform an arm lift

    The operation is considered one of the simple cosmetic operations that does not take much time, as it takes about two hours, and in which the following is done:

    • The doctor first sterilizes the shoulders and arms.
    • He makes some small surgical incisions in the inner arm area or on the back of the arms.
    • Excess fat and tissue are removed, thus tightening the skin.
    • In the last step, the doctor closes the surgical incisions with special sutures and absorbable sutures.
    • Before leaving the operating room, elastic bandages are placed on these incisions to restore the skin to its natural shape, and they can be removed after two weeks.

    Arm lift results

    After performing the arm lift and leaving the operating room, Dr. Yasser Badi explains:

    • The next day after the operation, the bandages and catheters are removed.
    • The patient can take painkillers when feeling pain.
    • The patient can leave the hospital several hours after the operation.
    • If some symptoms appear, such as high fever, shortness of breath, or bleeding, you should go to the doctor immediately.
    • There are some cases where some bloating and swelling may occur after the operation, but it goes away within two weeks.

    Laser arm lift

    The laser technology in the process depends on shining the laser on some of the specific layers of the skin to tighten and strengthen the connective tissue. It is worth noting that in a few cases, this technique succeeds, which makes it cannot be applied alone to treat and treat severe sagging arms.

    Arm lift methods

    All plastic surgeons, headed by Dr. Yasser Badi, agree that the main goal of operating is to tighten the sagging arms and get rid of the fat accumulated in this area as well as tighten sagging skin, so there are several different ways through which a sagging arms surgery can be performed, where Dr. Yasser Badi does the appropriate method of the patient’s condition in the following ways:

    • Sagging arms with traditional surgery.
    • Laser liposuction and then surgery to tighten sagging skin.
    • Liposuction and skin tightening using a laser.
    • Sagging arms treatment through mesotherapy.
    • Laser liposuction and then using ultrasound to perform a sagging arms surgery.

    Features of arm lift features

    There are a lot of techniques that have spread recently for sagging arms, but there are many advantages that made most plastic doctors, including Dr. Yasser Badi, prefer the sagging arms surgery procedure, and these advantages are:

    • The ideal solution to treat sagging arms and tighten the skin.
    • After this process, immediate results appear directly.
    • When you adhere to the doctor’s instructions, you can get long-term results.
    • Be more visible, especially after the swelling and inflammation subside.

    Risks expected after an arm lift

    Although there are many advantages to the procedure, there are some disadvantages and complications that may occur when performing this procedure, as this is due to the extent of the experience and skill of the treating doctor, the patient’s condition itself, and the extent of his qualification for the sagging arms surgery procedure, all of which affect the extent of the following complications and risks. :

    • Asymmetry of the arms completely.
    • The appearance of some visible scars affects the shape of the skin.
    • Some bruising, swelling, and redness.
    • In rare cases, it may affect the sensory nerves, leading to a loss of sensation in the area.
    • Possibility of infection in the surgical incision.

    Arm lift cost

    Many people search for arm lift cost, but of course, we can’t give an explicit cost for this operation, because the final sagging arms surgery cost is due to the:

    • Medical examinations and analyses.
    • The cost of anesthesia.
    • Medicines and medical supplies during and after the operation.
    • The cost of the surgeon depends on the degree of his experience and skill.
    • The medical dressings that you will wear after the operation.
    • The cost of hospital and operating room equipment.

    Nowadays, plastic surgeries have become necessary, and cosmetic surgeries are performed for both men and women, as a harmonious body shape is very important for men and women in social life, and diet and exercise programs are not enough for an active life, so men now prefer plastic surgeries to mitigate these problems.

    Steps of the body contouring process 

    • The process begins with making a small incision in the area from which fat is to be removed, then inserting a tube that is connected to a suction device, in case the objective of the operation is to remove fat.

    • After that, the area is numbed in preparation for making an incision in the skin.
    • A small amount of saline solution is mixed with the local anesthetic and placed in the desired area, as this mixture works to avoid the suction of large amounts of blood and fluids during the operation.
    • Through the incision, cannulas are inserted under the skin in the specified areas.
    • The doctor then moves the cannulas gradually to break up the accumulated fat.
    • The process is done through a suction device that removes fat and breaks it up outside the body.

    Cost of body contouring

    Body contouring prices start from $1,400 up to $9,200, but in general, many factors play a role in determining the cost of the operation, the most prominent of which are:

    • The country in which the operation will be performed.
    • Fees paid to the doctor and clinic in which the operation will be performed.
    • The area to be sculpted.

  • VASER liposuction

    VASER liposuction

    In the past, getting rid of accumulated body fat was extremely difficult. But recently, there have been many ways in which fat disposal has become as easy as VASER liposuction. This technique is what Dr. Yasser Badi prefers to get rid of difficult and accumulated fat for its immediate, guaranteed, and safe results on patients. They also tighten and sculpt the body in order to obtain a harmonious body.

    What’s VASER liposuction?

    It is a four-dimensional technique that is used in body liposuction, as it is one of the modern and recent technologies.

    The liposuction surrounding the muscles is thoroughly dissolved, due to the distinction of that technique without others as very accurate.

    What makes VASER the perfect choice is the ability to sculpt the shape of the muscles in both the state of movement and the state of stillness as well.

     Dr. Yasser Badi asserts that this technology sculpts specific areas that no other technology can reach like a chin.

    Most importantly that VASER can be done by using high-strength and precision ultrasonic waves, not laser waves and this is for their extreme accuracy and purity.

    The Ideal candidates for the VASER liposuction

    Not everyone is able to do it, here we can find that Dr. Yasser Badi confirms the importance of how the patient is prepared for this surgery.

     You can find below the ideal candidates that Dr. Yasser Badi listed:

    • If you’re within 30% of your ideal weight, you will be a strong candidate for liposuction – any more than 30% and you may wish to consider more comprehensive weight loss methods.
    • The candidate’s weight should be around 62 to 82 kg, and any weight gaining must be in a particular area.
    • Need to shape any part of the body if it doesn’t have overweight at all.
    • People who are surfing from Double chin problem.
    • Sculpting the six packs area and making it perfect without doing any kind of sports. 

    How does VASER liposuction work?

    At first, Dr. Yasser Badi discusses the patient and identifies the appropriate areas for the procedure. He then determines the type of anesthesia that is appropriate for this condition. In addition, if the treated area is small, he uses a local anesthetic with a mild analgesic during the procedure.

    At the beginning of the surgery, after anesthetizing the patient, the doctor injects normal saline in the area from which the liposuction will be done with VASER, This normal saline helps to numb the sensation, break up fat cells and also reduce bleeding, then the doctor inserts a small tube through an incision where this tube emits ultrasound in order to break down and drain fat cells And then these liquefied fat are gently sucked through a small needle.

    The final results of VASER liposuction?

    The period of the VASER liposuction surgery isn’t fixed, it depends on the case and the size of the area. After the surgery, the patient should be under observation for several hours.

    Furthermore, Dr. Yasser Badi asserts that the results begin to appear in a very short time compared to other methods of liposuction where the fat is removed from the body thanks to the acoustic waves of it using a cannula and therefore excess body fat is eliminated and the skin of the body tightened.

    To get the best result from the surgery you need to wait for 3 -6 months. In many cases the result lasts forever, it depends on how the patient takes good care of himself and does certain sports under the doctor’s supervision. The food style can help also; like law carps and low fats.
