| One of the limitations of this procedure is that there needs to be excess skin as well as fat to be a good candidate for the surgery. Occasionally, when there is excess fat only with minimal skin excess and good skin elasticity, liposuction may be the most effective course of action. |

| During an Arm Lift, HAMID ABDOLLAHI M.D. will make incisions on the inside or back of the arm. Incisions may span from the underarm to just above the elbow. Some patients only require minimal incisions from the area where the inner, upper arm joins the armpit. This is known as a minimal incision arm lift. Other patients, such as those who have lost large amounts of weight; either naturally or following bariatric surgery, may have more excess skin and would need a larger incision. Patient’s incision pattern will vary based on the extent of the surgery and recommendations by HAMID ABDOLLAHI, M.D. to reach the desired results. |

| After the incision is made, excess fat is removed with liposuction. Excessive skin is then trimmed and tightened and sutured in place with dissolvable sutures. The skin is smoothed and a new contour of the arm is created. An arm lift in New Jersey typically takes one to three hours depending on the extent of the surgery. It may involve local anesthesia with intravenous sedation or general anesthesia. |
