What to Expect from Arm Lift Surgery
A typical recovery timeframe takes around two weeks with lots of rest and arm elevation. Permit yourself time to heal. You use your arms for almost everything so patients are encouraged to ease their way back into their daily routines. A suture removal appointment will be made around ten days after surgery. Compression garments must be kept on until you are released by a member of our team. For at least one month, all exercise and strenuous activity must be eliminated with the exception of taking short walks. If you develop excessive swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, fluid buildup (hematoma), infection, numbness in the arms or hands, or unusual scarring, please call Premier Surgical Arts for help.
