Body Contouring

Arm lift (Brachioplasty)

Brachioplasty (or Arm lift) is a procedure to reshape the under portion of the arms, from the armpit to the elbow. This typically involves removal of the loose, flabby skin and fat that hangs between the armpit and the elbow. Varying scar patterns can result depending on the technique utilized. Determining the proper technique for your arm lift involves a careful analysis of specific factors: the degree of arm sagging, the ratio of excess skin to fat, and the quality of the overlying skin.

Body contouring after massive weight loss

Body Contouring after massive weight loss refers to a series of surgical procedures to remove excessive skin that is a result of massive and rapid weight loss from bariatric surgery. Bariatric surgery is a term for a variety of restrictive gastric surgeries to limit the amount of caloric intake/absorption; these include: gastric bypass, gastric banding, or duodenal switch. Patients who undergo these surgeries can lose significant amounts of weight, up to 100 lbs or more. The excessive skin is located in several characteristic areas, and surgeries like circumferential abdominoplasty, lower body lift, brachioplasty (arm lift), mastopexy (breast lift), thigh/buttock lifts, and face/neck lifts are commonly performed. Dr. Ha can help you determine which of these procedures are indicated for you during a consultation.

This procedure should not be considered “minimally invasive” or viewed as a method of weight loss. This procedure can be applied to nearly any area of the body, including love handles, saddlebags, a double chin, bulges around the waistline, or other unsightly fatty deposits.

Tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Abdominoplasty, known more commonly as a “tummy tuck,” is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen and to tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall. The procedure can dramatically reduce the appearance of a protruding abdomen and restore its youthful contour. The stretch marks and dimpled skin that are typically located below the navel are eliminated. Frequently, a lengthy scar is required extending from hip to hip, but can be well hidden in most bikini lines.
