Arm LiftFirst Step
What’s the first step?
Your first step will be to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who has experience in performing routine to complex cosmetic surgical procedures of the body. Your surgeon will collect all relevant information and discuss your goals. During this stage, you will be asked questions related to your medical history, use of alcohol and tobacco, and the medication or vitamins you currently take. Take advantage of this time to voice any of your concerns regarding the surgery and ask questions you may have regarding the treatment and results.
In the time leading up to your arm lift surgery, your surgeon may ask you to take certain steps to ensure the success of the procedure. You may need to avoid or begin taking specific medications and/or supplements, stop smoking, undergo lab tests or a medical evaluation, and follow a specific dietary plan. You should also arrange to have a friend or family member pick you up from your surgery and help you at home for at least the first night of recovery.
