Medically known as brachioplasty, an arm lift removes excess skin and fat that hang loosely from the upper arms, restoring a toned appearance. The procedure usually takes 3 to 4 hours under general anesthesia, with scars well hidden beneath the arm. In some cases, Dr. Karishma may combine an arm tuck with liposuction for improved arm contour and definition. For younger patients with good skin elasticity, liposuction alone may be sufficient, requiring only local anesthesia and allowing faster recovery. At Kaesthetics, we specialize not only in arm contouring but also in body sculpting procedures such as buttock augmentation surgery in Bangalore, ensuring a balanced and natural result tailored to your body goals.
A synthetic implant of the appropriate shape and size is placed under the buttock muscles to lift and shape them to the desired level.
In this method, fat from another part of the body is extracted by liposuction and injected into the buttocks.
In the implantation method, there is a risk of infection. A fine scar will also be present in the buttock cleavage. There may also be some restrictions on sitting down for about a week. Fat transfer is usually safe as the fat is taken from your own body. It is also longer lasting and minimally invasive. It leaves no scars, only a few minor cuts, which will dry up and vanish in a few days. The added advantage is that stubborn fat, which is resistant to diet and exercise, can be removed and transferred in the same sitting. Both procedures are usually done under general anaesthesia. Dr. Karishma will discuss both methods with you and recommend the right one.
Usually, you can go home the same day. If an implant has been placed, you will be advised against sitting on your buttocks for about a week. If only fat has been transferred, no such restrictions will apply. Strenuous exercises must be avoided for few weeks. You will also need to wear the compression garments that we provide you for 4-6 weeks.
