I have seen 4 plastic surgeons 2 tell me that there is nothing that can be done because of the nerves in my forearms, but the other 2 says they can do it. The 2 surgeons that told me it can't be done said that they would consider it malpractice. Can it be done without it messing up my hands? They said that it would mess up the nerves and I wouldn't be able to use my hands.

Are skin tightening &brachio ever combined?Since last fall my arm skin became VERY lax. 53 yrs, F, near menopause. No major weight loss/not heavy. Lifting weights 6+ mos 3x a week & now there's SOLID muscle tone from bicep thru forearm. I'm consulting w/PS's & know full brachio is best, but how well that will that fix sagging inner elbow that impacts forearm? See last 2 pics, if arm is slightly bent & I press on skin, or turn arm sideways, there is major laxity/wrinkling from inner elbow downward.

My right forearm hurts, I can stretch my arm completely but it hurts when I do.. like it is pulling from the wrist to the elbow (inner part). Also, I bought a compression garment and it feels comfortable on the upper and lower side of arm but in the middle seems to press and it makes this pain worse. Do you think maybe it is too tight? or should I just wear it until I get used to it? Thanks. 4 EXPERT ANSWERS Our mission is to create a world where every investment in modern beauty is Worth It.How long are arms sore after brachioplasty?You may experience soreness, swelling, and some bruising. This should lessen after the first few days. Plan for 1 to 2 weeks of recovery time for an arm lift procedure. It may take the tissues in your arms a few weeks to fully heal.
When can I sleep on my side after brachioplasty?No, you should avoid sleeping on your side for the first few weeks after an upper Brachioplasty. Always consult your specialised plastic surgeon with any questions and concerns you may have, and make sure to follow any recommendations made by your specialised plastic surgeon strictly.
How long do you have to wear compression sleeves after brachioplasty?Patients may be asked to wear compression garments for about 3 – 6 weeks to help control side effects, such as bruising or swelling, and allow the arms to heal properly. Patients will want to use pillows to keep the arms elevated, increase circulation, and reduce swelling during the day and at night.
How long does arm lift take to heal?There is no universal timeline for recovery from an arm lift. Everybody heals at a different rate based on factors such as skin health and overall health. However, in general, the entire recovery process will take around two to three weeks.
