How is it different from a standard arm lift?

A standard arm lift treats the upper arm only. The extended version uses a longer incision to reach the chest wall, smoothing both areas together. This avoids leaving loose skin near the side body.

Who is a good candidate for Extended Brachioplasty?

People with loose skin spreading from the arm toward the armpit and chest are good candidates, especially after major weight loss. Stable weight and good health matter. A consultation in Surat confirms suitability.

Is the recovery longer than a standard arm lift?

It can be slightly longer because the treated area is larger. Even so, many people manage light activity within two weeks. Swelling settles over several weeks, and intense exercise waits about six weeks.

Will the scar be noticeable?

The scar is longer because it reaches the chest wall, but it is placed in discreet lines. It fades over many months. Careful aftercare and scar care help it soften and become less visible.

How much does extended brachioplasty cost in Surat?

Cost depends on how much skin is treated and the complexity of the case. You receive a written estimate after your consultation. EMI options are available to help you manage the payment.

Q: What is extended brachioplasty?

Extended brachioplasty is an arm lift that also treats loose skin reaching onto the side of the chest wall. It suits people whose looseness spreads beyond the arm, often after very large weight loss.

What is extended brachioplasty?

Extended brachioplasty is a longer version of the standard arm lift. It treats loose skin that does not stop at the arm but continues onto the side of the chest wall.

This approach is common after very large weight loss, where excess skin spreads across a wider area in Surat.

Who it suits

Loose skin extends from the upper arm toward the armpit and chest
A standard arm lift would leave looseness near the side body
You have lost a large amount of weight and your weight is stable
Skin folds in the area rub or trap moisture
You want a smoother line from arm to torso

How the procedure works

Your surgeon extends the incision from the inner arm down toward the chest wall. The excess skin is removed and the area is tightened so the arm and side flow together smoothly.

Approaches we may use

A combined arm and chest wall incision for wide looseness
Liposuction to refine fullness along the side

Recovery

Because the treated area is larger, recovery can feel a little longer than a standard arm lift. Swelling and tightness settle over several weeks. Compression garments support healing, and heavier activity waits about six weeks.
