Before undergoing an arm lift, it is crucial to disclose any existing medical conditions to your surgeon. While certain medical conditions may not automatically disqualify you from the procedure, your surgeon will need to assess your health and consider any potential risks or modifications to ensure your safety and optimal results. An open and honest discussion with your surgeon will allow for a personalized treatment plan that takes into account your medical history and addresses any specific concerns or considerations related to your health.

Will I need to stay overnight in the hospital after an arm lift?
In most cases, an arm lift procedure can be performed on an outpatient basis, allowing you to return home the same day. However, depending on the extent of the surgery and your individual needs, your surgeon may recommend an overnight stay in the hospital for closer observation and post-operative care to ensure your comfort and safety during the initial recovery period.

Can an arm lift improve the appearance of stretch marks on my arms?
While an arm lift can help to improve the appearance of sagging skin and excess fat on the arms, it may not directly address stretch marks. However, the removal of excess skin during the procedure can sometimes result in a reduction in the prominence of stretch marks, leading to an overall improvement in arm aesthetics. Your surgeon will evaluate your specific case and discuss the best approach to address your concerns during the consultation.
