Results of Your excisional arm lipectomy

Excisional arm lipectomy will enhance your body contour by making your upper arm muscle firmer and flatter and your buttocks lifted and more youthful in contour. You may find that you feel more comfortable in your clothing and are more confident about your appearance.

The incisions from the procedure will heal and fade over time. It is important to realize, however, that the incision lines will be permanently visible. In some instances, they will eventually be only faint lines. Certain individuals may have incision lines that are more noticeable. Fortunately, the incisions for your upper arm muscle surgery are usually in locations concealed by most bathing suits and undergarments.

How long will the results last?

Unless you gain or lose a significant amount of weight or become pregnant, your upper arm muscle should remain firmer and flatter for many years. However, gravity and the effects of aging will eventually take their toll. If, after a period of years, you again become dissatisfied with the appearance of your arms, you may choose to undergo a second procedure to restore a more youthful body contour.

Post Surgical Care

The results of your arm lift procedure can be easily maintained with a healthy lifestyle, but the use of certain clinical skin care products can help sustain your results. Dr. Speron recommends neaclear Liquid Oxygen Firming Body Lotion and neaclear^plus Liquid Oxygen Rejuvenating Body Scrub. To reduce the appearance of post surgical scars, he also recommends neaclear^plus Liquid Oxygen Scar Advantage.

•  Delivers oxygen and nutrients to scar tissue to accelerate healing process

neaclear^plus Liquid Oxygen Rejuvenating Body Scrub:

•  Gently scrubs away dead skin cells and other impurities to refresh the skin

•  Optimizes the skin's ability to retain moisture

•  Revitalizes the skin, especially around scar tissue, to regenerate healthy cells

neaclear^plus Liquid Oxygen Scar Advantage:

•  Applies gentle pressure to the site of the scar to encourage flatness

•  Provides oxygen to the scar to accelerate healing

•  Leaves the skin softer and smoother

Maintaining a Relationship with Your Plastic Surgeon

You will return to your plastic surgeon's office for follow-up care at prescribed intervals, at which time your progress will be evaluated. Your surgeon will encourage you to schedule routine follow-up evaluations at the frequency recommended for your age group and the procedure performed.

Please remember that the relationship with your plastic surgeon does not end when you leave the operating room. If you have questions or concerns during your recovery, or need additional information at a later time, you should contact your surgeon.
