Upper arm lift in Zurich

Taut arms for a powerful appearance.

One of the most well-known and often misunderstood aspects of the ageing process is the sagging of the skin, particularly on the upper arms. Regardless of regular exercise and a disciplined diet, significant sagging of the skin and displacement of fatty tissue can occur. An upper arm lift in Zurich, medically referred to as a brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure that aims to remove excess skin and fatty tissue from the upper arms. This procedure gives the upper arms a firmer and more youthful appearance and improves the patient's overall body image and self-confidence.

Precision and planning

The success of an upper arm lift in Zurich lies in the precise planning and execution of the procedure. Our experienced medical team uses advanced techniques to remove excess skin and fatty tissue with the utmost precision. The natural contour of the upper arms can be restored thanks to the specific positioning of the incisions and detailed assessment of the skin texture. The technique also allows for minimal scarring, further enhancing the aesthetic results.

Liposuction: A complementary measure for contour enhancement

For patients with uneven fat distribution in the upper arms, additional liposuction may be recommended. This procedure makes it possible to precisely remove localized fat deposits and further improve the shape and definition of the upper arms. The end result is a natural and harmonious look that improves the patient's overall appearance and boosts self-confidence.

Aftercare and long-term results

After surgery, careful aftercare is crucial to ensure optimal results and avoid possible complications. Patients are instructed on how to properly care for their arms and what exercises can be helpful to support the healing process and maintain arm mobility. The results of an upper arm lift in Zurich are permanent, but it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle in order to preserve the results in the long term.
