Lifting de brazos

¿Qué es la cirugía de lifting de brazos?

 La cirugía de lifting de brazos, formalmente conocida como braquioplastia, es un procedimiento que tiene como objetivo tensar y tonificar la parte superior de los brazos mediante la eliminación del exceso de piel en la parte superior de los brazos. De este modo, se restaura el contorno juvenil de la parte superior de los brazos.

 

¿Por qué se realiza el lifting de brazos?

 La eliminación de la piel flácida de los brazos es la razón principal de la cirugía de lifting de brazos. La flacidez de la piel puede deberse a diversas razones: edad avanzada, dieta baja en proteínas, sedentarismo, exposición excesiva a la luz solar y pérdida repentina de peso. Aunque la braquioplastia se dirige a una zona relativamente pequeña del cuerpo, el procedimiento puede mejorar el aspecto completo. Con unos brazos más delgados, toda la figura puede parecer notablemente más esbelta y joven.

 

¿Cuáles son las condiciones para someterse a una cirugía de lifting de brazos?

 El lifting de brazos se recomienda a los siguientes pacientes:

  • Los pacientes que no tienen condiciones médicas que pueden perjudicar la curación o aumentaría el riesgo de la cirugía.
  • Los pacientes que pueden ir con seguridad bajo anestesia.
  • Los pacientes que tienen exceso de piel en la parte superior de los brazos.

 

Además, la cirugía de lifting de brazos se recomienda a pacientes con un índice de masa corporal (IMC) inferior a 30, ya que los resultados de la cirugía cambiarán con la pérdida o el aumento de peso.

 

¿Cuáles son los tipos de cirugía de lifting de brazos?

 Existen 3 tipos de cirugía de lifting de brazos:

 

Mini Lifting de Brazos:

 Consiste en realizar una única incisión curvada situada completamente debajo de la axila y es ideal para pacientes con grados leves de laxitud de la piel y exceso de grasa en la parte superior de los brazos.

 

Lifting de brazos estándar:

 Elimina por completo el exceso de piel y grasa de los brazos. La incisión se hace debajo del brazo, la cicatriz no es visible cuando se ve desde el frente y la espalda.

 

Lifting de brazos extendido:

La incisión se extiende desde el codo hasta la parte superior del brazo a lo largo de la axila y a lo largo de la pared torácica lateral. Implica la eliminación del exceso de piel y grasa de la parte superior del brazo, la axila y cerca del pecho. Se aplica a pacientes con flacidez excesiva de los brazos.

 

¿Qué hay que tener en cuenta antes del lifting de brazos?

Antes de la cirugía de Lifting de Brazos:

  • Los pacientes deben acudir al hospital un día antes de la intervención para que se les realicen las pruebas preoperatorias.
  • Los pacientes deben dejar de fumar y de consumir alcohol al menos 2 semanas antes de la intervención para aliviar el riesgo de coágulos de sangre.
  • Los pacientes deben evitar los medicamentos que contengan aspirina o ibuprofeno (Advil, Motrin IB, otros) durante dos semanas antes y después de la cirugía. Estos medicamentos pueden aumentar el riesgo de hemorragia interna. Los pacientes deben confirmar cada medicamento y suplemento que deseen tomar con su Coordinador de Pacientes.

 

También se examinará y medirá el cuerpo del paciente, y es posible que el cirujano tome fotografías para que el paciente pueda comparar el aspecto antes y después de la cirugía de lifting de brazos.

 

¿Cómo se realiza el lifting de brazos?

Los cirujanos plásticos utilizan diferentes técnicas. Antes de la operación, se extienden los brazos y se realiza una planificación y dibujos detallados. Sólo se marca el exceso de piel cuya eliminación proporcionará un tensado adecuado y no distorsionará el contorno del brazo.

Se realiza la incisión adecuada en función de la cirugía de lifting de brazos que se vaya a realizar.

 

Durante la intervención, el exceso de piel se elimina mediante una disección suave, para no dañar los vasos y nervios del brazo. Dependiendo de la intervención, también puede eliminarse el exceso de piel y grasa cerca de las axilas y la zona del pecho.

 

En la mayoría de los casos, se colocan drenajes para eliminar los líquidos que puedan acumularse bajo la piel. La cirugía estándar de lifting de brazos dura una media de dos horas, pero puede durar hasta cinco dependiendo de la complejidad del caso. Al final de la cirugía, se colocan vendas para crear presión cerca de la zona del brazo y para controlar la inflamación.

 

¿Qué hay que tener en cuenta tras la cirugía de lifting de brazos?

La inflamación y los hematomas pueden tardar de varias semanas a meses en desaparecer y las cicatrices pueden tardar hasta 12 meses en aplanarse y aclararse, pero las cicatrices no desaparecerán por completo. Se aconseja a los pacientes que:

  • Llevar una férula especial para el brazo que se le proporcionará durante tres semanas para reducir la hinchazón.
  • Restringir los movimientos y ejercicios extenuantes del brazo durante al menos seis semanas.
  • Proteger la piel del sol y utilizar regularmente crema de protección solar.

 

Por término medio, el paciente puede volver al trabajo 10 días después de la intervención.

 

¿Cuáles son los riesgos de la cirugía de lifting de brazos?

 Los riesgos de la cirugía de lifting de brazos son, entre otros, los siguientes:

  • Hinchazón
  • Moratones
  • Hemorragia
  • Infección
  • Dehiscencia de la herida
  • Acumulación de líquido en el lugar de la herida
  • Hematoma, que es una hemorragia bajo la piel
  • Riesgos asociados a la anestesia
  • Entumecimiento en el lugar de la incisión

Otro posible riesgo de la cirugía de lifting de brazos es que el paciente no quede satisfecho con los resultados. En este caso, es posible realizar una cirugía de revisión.

Tal reviewed Neck lift Dr Emre

Disclaimer: Only just had this done, so it may need to be updated once I have healed fully. Nurses; they were one of the best parts about my stay. All the nurses (especially female) were amazing. I had 1 nurse (blonde, maybe head nurse, night shift) she was so great and really looked after me and spoke good enough English. They checked on me almost every 3 hours, gave me so many IVs and made sure I was really ok. Clean: I didn’t notice anything being unclean or unkept. It was all clean to a good standard- better than the uk. Surgeon: I had two consultations with him. He spoke good enough English also. He did an amazing job. My scars aren’t even visible really and I have just had it done. My jawline is snatched and so well defined. He did set expectations around my surgery so I’m going to wait to see the full result. I only wished he would’ve been there when I woke up to explain what happened during surgery. Results : it’s been 5 days, but my jawline is so very defined and the skin is completely gone. So happy right now with it but i know it will drop Things that could’ve been better: probs just the surgeon explaining what happened to me in surgery lol and i think the medical sheets (advice post op) it’s confusing and contradicting- etc one page said take brown tape off in a week the other page said 3 weeks. One page said wear head compress for a month one said 3 months- it needs to be rewritten. Other than that, no complaints. for the price, surgery and experience I’d go with them, they really did take care of everything for me.

Gema Somacarrera reviewed Incredible Company

I would like to write a very sincere review about Booking Surgery.com After being botched 2 years ago by another company in Izmir I couldn't take any chances of this happening again. I had a extended tummy tuck and breast uplift 2 years ago but unfortunatelly i had serious complications due to malpractice. I was leff in a hotel the day after surgery with little or no care at all. After doing a lot of research I came across Booking Surgery. The first thing that attracted me was that they offer full hospital stay. I was recomended to contact David Tucker and within a few hours of me contacting him he got in touch. David listened to my story and everything I went through previously, he was very compasionate and promised Booking Surgery will do their best to find me the best surgeon to perform the corrective surgery I need it. After several communications and assestments I chose Dr Emin based in excellent results, references and meeting him personally as I travelled to meet him before making my final decision. I travel to Turkey on the 5th January 2025 and as soon as I arrived at the hospital I was greeted my Jake, their translator and taken to my hospital room. I had all my pre-op test straight away plus, scan, ultra sounds and mamograms to look for any internal damage from previous surgery. The next morning Dr Emin came with his team for the assesment and markings ready for surgery. I knew it was going to be a very complicated surgery and didn't have high expectations at all. I put my trust in Dr Emin and hoped for the best. When I woke up after 10 hours in surgery I was told by Dr Emin that it was a very sucessful outcome and that he was extremely happy with the results. Even though I was unable to see anything I was already so happy. I was able to see the results the next day, I couldn't believe the incredible work Dr Emin had done, just over the mon. I will never be able to thank such an amazing surgeon enough for the incredible work he performed on me. My stay at the hospital was outstanding, Dr Emin came to see me and check my wounds every day, the head nurse Secil was so efficient and made sure I was well look after, she will check on me all the time. All the staff from cleaners, translators, nurses were outstanding. The love, care and attention I have recieved from everyone at Booking Surgery has been incredible. I am now back home and it has been 10 days since my operation. I feel amazing and I have just seen my whole body, i could cry. Perfection and i am so tinny and the shape is incredible. I am so in love with the work in my breast after losing my niple and tissue on my right breast 2 years ago. Dr Emin managed to reconstruct my breast and now matches the other breast. I don't know how to express so much gratitude. Dr Emin is GOD, he will never know how much he has already improve my mental health and how much my life and confidence will change. Please do not hesitate to book with this amazing company, they work with high end surgeons, not ordinary ones. David Turker my cordinator made a big part to make this a success so please do not hesitate to contact him for your initial assesment. Can't wait to fully recover and return for my thighs lift. Thank you with all my heart Booking Surgery and everyone involved ♥️

Stuart Jamieson reviewed Gastric sleave

The whole experience was very good when I arrived i started to panic but the staff settled me down. Rooms were very very good compared to what the nhs offer as well as tv with netflix.

Emily reviewed Experience was great

Experience was great. Whenever I asked for anything like pain killers, anti sickness etc I received it within minutes. All the staff were lovely and couldn’t do anything more to help me. Bruce was my co-ordinator he went above and beyond to settle my mind and my family’s mind with us being in 2 different countries. Thank you.

Kayley leask reviewed After I was so worried about travelling…
