The smoother and tighter contours that result from arm lift surgery are apparent almost immediately following your procedure. Initial results will be obscured by swelling and bruising, and a scar will remain where the incision was made.
The results of arm lift surgery will be long-lasting, provided that you maintain a stable weight and general fitness. As your body ages, it is natural to lose some firmness, but most of your improvement should be relatively permanent.
It’s important that the surgical incisions are not subjected to excessive force, swelling, abrasion or motion during the time of healing.
Following your physician’s instructions is essential to the success of your surgery.
