Hello. This is TheLINE Plastic Surgery. This time I would like to introduce the case of a patient who underwent arm liposuction and an arm lift with Dr. Jaeho Cho!
The arm is one of the areas where the skin is thin, so it stretches and sags easily. Sagging skin cannot be resolved with exercise or dieting, so an arm lift can be said to be the most suitable method. In addition, when liposuction is performed alongside it, an even more natural and slim change in the line can be expected.
This is the patient's pre-operative photo. The patient was 155cm, 61kg, and her weight had fluctuated considerably due to repeated dieting. When she first visited TheLINE Plastic Surgery for a consultation, she had lost 20kg.
Because of these changes, a healthy lifestyle had not settled in and her weight fluctuated greatly, and she was troubled by loose skin. Reflecting her concerns, we planned arm liposuction together with an arm lift through a longitudinal incision, and performed surgery to remove the sagging skin.
This is the photo at one month after surgery. You can see that the scar from the lift is still somewhat dark when the arm is raised. But you can also see that it is hidden enough not to be visible when she wears a top and does not raise her arm. In the case of lift surgery, the incision method and extent vary according to the patient's concerns and the desired effect, so it can be said to be more important than anything to decide through thorough discussion with the physician.
This is the photo at one year after surgery. We could see her freely wearing the sleeveless tops she had wanted to wear but could not attempt because of her loose arm skin ^^ Not only was the sagging skin effectively removed so that the arm was restored to a straight line, but performing liposuction alongside it produced an even slimmer and more natural change. The patient was very satisfied with this result and showed us how she had regained her confidence through the surgery.
