Brachioplasty Outcomes

Abstract

Brachioplasty, despite being an effective treatment for contour irregularities of the upper arm, is associated with significant revision and complication rates. Post-bariatric surgery patients should be informed of the potential for increased complications. Additional procedures performed at the time of brachioplasty do not significantly increase complications. Liposuction of the upper arm can be performed safely in conjunction with brachioplasty.
