San Antonio Arm Lift
Almost no one is immune and even people who are considered thin can develop it. What is it? Those areas of stubborn fat that are unresponsive to diet and exercise. We have all been naturally predisposed to hold on to weight in different parts of our bodies, as has been defined by our genetic make-up. Thank your ancestors for passing down those underarms that jiggle, long after you’ve stopped dancing. It’s not just something that happens to older people, either, even younger people have stubborn fat pockets that are resistant (to a certain extent) to diet and exercise. It is also very common after weight loss to have excess, sagging skin under the arm, and everywhere else, too.
So, what can you do about it?
One option is Brachioplasty, also called an Arm Lift, which removes the excess skin and liposuctions out those stubborn fat cells which results in a tighter, more defined arm. You might be a good candidate for this procedure if you are in good health, at a maintained a healthy weight (not considered obese) and have been for several months, you don’t smoke and you have realistic expectations about your outcome. Brachioplasty, generally in the case of sagging skin from extensive weight loss, is usually done in conjunction with other Body Lift procedures which like tummy tucks, thigh lifts, face and neck lifts. Consult with your Doctor to see what’s best for you.
