The flaccidity of the arms is a problem that affects all those people who have suffered significant weight loss or in which the simple passing of time has left traces in this region, consisting of the sagging of the skin and fat that produces alterations of the contour of the arms. Brachioplasty is a procedure that is performed quite often in which all this flaccid tissue is removed, thus returning the pleasant appearance of a firm arm.
This procedure is performed through one or two incisions (armpit and inner side of the arm) according to the case of each person, always trying to make the scars as hidden as possible. It is performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia and sedation, depending on the health status and patient preference.
