The skin under the arms naturally tends to loosen as they age. This effect can be accentuated following weight loss. The discomfort is essentially aesthetic (uneasiness to be sleeveless), it may be functional in cases of severe loosening.

The surgery involves scars that may be different for each patient. The results are very satisfactory but the scar is extensive.
The operation consists of removing fat and excess skin. The surgeon will make an incision from the armpit to the elbow, leaving a long scar. In very rare cases, the surgeon will make an incision only under the armpit, but the sagging skin must be restricted. UrgoTouch ® laser scar treatment can be performed following this operation in the operating room to optimize the scar result.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row heading_color=”primary-2″ bg_type=”gradient” bg_gradient_color_1=”#dcc7b9″ bg_gradient_color_2=”#fce3d6″ bg_gradient_direction=”135″ padding_top_multiplier=”3x” padding_bottom_multiplier=”5x” columns_gap=”60″ separator_top_size=”60px” separator_bottom=”curve-left-separator”][vc_column][movedo_title heading_tag=”h2″ heading=”h1″ line_type=”line” align=”center”]Learn more about the operation[/movedo_title][movedo_empty_space][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][movedo_single_image image_mode=”large” image=”11965″ animation=”grve-fade-in-up” el_class=”pictobg”][movedo_empty_space][movedo_title line_type=”line” line_height=”1″ line_color=”white” align=”center” animation=”grve-fade-in-up”]THE OPERATION[/movedo_title][movedo_empty_space][vc_column_text animation=”grve-fade-in-up”]

In rare cases, it will be limited to the armpits.

This area is particularly sensitive for scars because it is an area of high tension.

To make it as invisible as possible, the surgeon will make the incision on the inner surface of the arm, making it invisible from the front or back.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][movedo_single_image image_mode=”large” image=”11964″ animation=”grve-fade-in-up” el_class=”pictobg”][movedo_empty_space][movedo_title line_type=”line” line_height=”1″ line_color=”white” align=”center” animation=”grve-fade-in-up”]POST-OPERATION[/movedo_title][movedo_empty_space][vc_column_text animation=”grve-fade-in-up”]

  • Rests for about 2 weeks is recommended
  • A wound dressing is placed for 4 weeks
  • Sports is not recommended within 2 months of the intervention
  • Your surgeon will monitor the results of the operation and the progress of the healing process (duration to be defined with your surgeon)
  • Final result between 3 and 6 months after post-operative edema has subsided
  • The result of the scar is definitive between 18 and 24 months
