Attractive Arms Through Arm Liposuction in Miami

Gain Confidence with Slim, Graceful Arms

Our bodies have a way of storing fat in visible places, and the upper arm is a prime example. Excess fatty tissue obscures the tone and definition of your arm muscles, making them appear soft and flabby. You may feel like you want to hide your arms with long-sleeved garments that are hardly ideal for our South Florida climate.

However, arm liposuction from HD Esthetique in Miami can help restore the graceful look of your arms. By strategically removing fatty tissue in your upper arms, Dr. Rafel Antun can transform their appearance, giving you the confidence you need to bear your arms to the world.

Understanding Arm Liposuction

Arm lipo in Miami is a surgical procedure in which the doctor makes incisions in your upper arm and uses a specially designed machine to suck out fat tissue deposits. This process allows him to fine-tune the results, sculpting your arms symmetrically to give you a balanced appearance.

Liposuction Basics

Liposuction technology has been part of the field of cosmetic surgery for decades. Our bodies generate fat cells over time to store energy. Although working out can reduce their size, they do not disappear through exercise. In liposuction, a medical professional uses a metal tube called a cannula to access fat deposits. Then, the liposuction machine vacuums the tissue out of your body.

The advantage of liposuction is that it is a targeted technique. Instead of reducing fat cells throughout your body, it removes them in specific areas that tend to be trouble spots like love handles, the abdomen, and the upper arm.

Arm Liposuction or Brachioplasty

Patients sometimes confuse arm liposuction, which removes fat cells, with brachioplasty, a procedure to remove excess skin around the arms. Brachioplasty, or an arm lift, is a common procedure after a patient loses a significant amount of weight leading to excess skin folds that can chafe or become infected. Surgically removing the skin flaps will relieve this condition.

Arm liposuction removes adipose tissue beneath the skin. In many cases, the skin is elastic enough to tighten on its own, improving the tone and definition of your arms.

Benefits of Arm Lipo in Miami

Arm liposuction is a relatively minor procedure with substantial benefits. You’ll love how the process slims your arms and the confidence you will have wearing clothes that expose them.

Better Arm Definition

Working out at the gym builds and tones your muscles, but excess fat cells hide the signs of your hard exercise. Arm liposuction will improve the definition of your biceps and triceps. Because Dr. Antun can target specific fat deposits, he can improve the symmetry between your arms, enhancing your overall appearance.

Greater Confidence When Exposing Arms

The hot South Florida climate encourages people to wear lighter clothing that exposes their skin. If you’re tired of hiding your arms under long-sleeved garments, arm lipo in Miami may be the perfect solution. You will have more confidence knowing your arms look graceful and attractive.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Arm Lipo in Miami?

At HD Esthtique, we always want our patients to have excellent results. Part of that process is determining whether you’re a good candidate for a procedure ahead of time. At your initial consultation, Dr. Antun will consider several factors in developing a plan to enhance your body.

Fat Percentage

Arm liposuction patients should have enough adipose tissue so that the procedure will make a significant difference to their appearance. People who have lost a great deal of weight or already have a fair amount of muscle definition are not ideal candidates.

Skin Elasticity

Skin loses its elasticity with age. Good candidates for arm liposuction will have skin that can tighten naturally after the procedure, producing better arm definition. An arm lift is the right procedure if you’re concerned about loose skin.

Overall Health

Arm liposuction is a surgical procedure, so patients should be physically healthy before receiving it.

The Arm Liposuction Procedure

Some aspects of the arm lipo procedure may vary depending on the patient. For example, if a patient is undergoing 360 liposuction along with arm liposuction, they are more likely to need general anesthesia.

Anesthesia

Because it is less invasive, doctors can often perform arm liposuction with local anesthesia or sedation. The doctor will consult with you and other medical staff on the best way to prevent discomfort during your operation.

Liposuction

The doctor makes incisions near your elbow and underarm to access the interior fat deposits. He uses a cannula to break up fatty tissue, allowing it to be sucked out by the liposuction machine. The procedure does minimal damage to your skin and should not affect your blood vessels or nerves.

Recovery

Most arm liposuction patients go home on the day of their surgery, although someone else needs to drive them. The day after the procedure you will experience some swelling and soreness. The doctor may have you wear a compression garment to reduce swelling.

The Cost of Miami Arm Liposuction

The cost of arm lipo in Miami by a certified doctor will depend on several factors such as the type of anesthesia required, additional procedures, and any complicating factors. Liposuction is generally considered elective surgery, so your regular insurance will probably not cover it. However, HD Esthetique offers several financing options that can help make the procedure more affordable.

Recovering from an Arm Liposuction Procedure in Miami

Most arm liposuction patients can return to their normal activities within two weeks of the procedure. It is especially important to allow yourself to rest for the first few days. To prevent problems with your incisions, you will also be restricted from lifting heavy objects for a few weeks.
