What to expect on the day of Arm Lift surgery
On the day of your Arm Lift surgery, you will arrive at our Greensboro, NC surgical facility where you will be greeted by Dr. Collier Pace and our passionate team. Anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
Dr. Pace will carefully make incisions along the inner or back surface of your upper arms, through which he will remove excess skin and fat. The underlying tissues will be reshaped and tightened to create a more toned and defined appearance.
Once the desired changes have been made, the incisions will be closed with sutures, and your arms may be wrapped in dressings.
The length of the procedure can vary, but on average, Arm Lift in Greensboro, NC takes about two hours. When finished, you will be closely monitored in a recovery area and provided with detailed post-operative instructions for a smooth recovery. It is recommended to bring a family or friend to drive you home as you might have some lingering effects from the sedation.
Arm Lift recovery
During the recovery period after an Arm Lift procedure, it is normal to experience some discomfort, swelling, and bruising. It is important to follow the instructions provided by Dr. Pace, which may include wearing compression garments and taking prescribed pain medication.
Gradually resuming normal activities and attending follow-up appointments will help us monitor progress and guarantee optimal healing.
