[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]It is usual for people who have suddenly lost a lot of weight to have a saggy underarm. When most of the fat is gone, the skin under the arm will lose its elasticity and sag, as the shape of the arm remains the same before the fat loss. The technique through which the excess skin and fat under the arms are surgically removed is called <\/span>Brachioplasty<\/span> or arm lift.<\/span><\/p>\n

How does Brachioplasty or Arm-Lift works?<\/b><\/p>\n

Loose skin under the arms is a common result of losing weight in that area. Prior to the Brachioplasty in Dubai, your surgeon will mark the length of your arm, from where the skin has to be removed. <\/span><\/p>\n

During the surgery, the incisions are placed on the inside of the arm. The plastic surgeon will tighten the tissues inside with the help of internal sutures.

Will there be anaesthesia involved?<\/b><\/p>\n

Like in the case of any other surgery, Brachioplasty will also require putting the patient<\/span> under IV sedation or general anaesthesia<\/span> during the procedure.
