Hand skin tightening.
Sagging skin or excess fat on the inside of the forearms is one of the most common cosmetic problems. Defects in this area are due to natural causes and are difficult to correct by sports exercises in cases where the skin is overstretched, or excess fat cannot be compensated by building muscle mass.
The skin on the inner side of the forearm usually stretches with age or with a significant loss of body weight, when excess adipose tissue leaves, and the skin does not return to its original state. Endocrine diseases, hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy, or the usual dramatic weight loss can ruin the contour of the inner side of the forearm.
In such cases, plastic surgery of the inner surface of the forearm can be performed - lifting the skin of the hands or brachioplasty.
Brachioplasty surgery solves several problems:
- Tightens excess skin,
- Excises and removes excess adipose tissue,
- Moves the patient's adipose tissue to those places of the forearm where its presence is necessary - forearm lipoplasty (such a situation can arise with an uneven distribution of adipose tissue, as a result of muscle tissue decrease, as a result of an operation to remove tumors, when significant areas of tissue are excised from the inner side of the forearm).
Brachioplasty can be performed with bilateral skin tightening (two postoperative scars will be located in the elbow and armpit) or with unilateral skin tightening (one postoperative scar is located in the armpit).
Contraindications to the brachioplasty procedure are:
- Endocrine disorders that prevent the healing of postoperative sutures (diabetes mellitus),
- Autoimmune skin diseases,
- Keloid scarring of the skin,
- Diseases of the blood.
Brachioplasty assumes that in the postoperative period, the patient will maintain the configuration of the forearm: keep the weight, pump up the muscles of the forearm, maintain hormonal levels in order to avoid sharp fluctuations in weight.
Brachioplasty is not a difficult operation, but in the postoperative rehabilitation period, complications are possible: prolonged healing of scars, inflammation of the scars, swollen lymph nodes in the axillary region, edema, bruises and hematomas.
