Elbow lift surgery, also known as elbow rejuvenation or elbow contouring, is a specialized procedure designed to address excess skin and fat in the elbow area. As we age, our skin loses elasticity, leading to sagging or drooping skin on the elbows. Additionally, weight loss or genetics can contribute to loose or flabby elbows. Dr. Gallagher understands the impact this can have on your self-confidence, and she is dedicated to providing personalized solutions that restore a more youthful and defined appearance to your elbows.
With Dr. Gallagher, you can expect a comprehensive evaluation, personalized treatment plan, and compassionate care throughout your journey.
Benefits of Elbow Tuck Surgery:
- Improved Contour: Elbow tuck surgery reshapes and tightens the skin and underlying tissues, creating a more refined and youthful contour.
- Elimination of Excess Skin and Fat: The procedure targets and removes excess skin and fat, eliminating sagging or flabby appearance in the elbow area.
- Increased Confidence: By restoring a smoother and firmer appearance to your elbows, elbow tuck surgery can enhance your self-esteem and confidence in your overall appearance.
The Elbow Tuck Procedure:
During the elbow tuck surgery, Dr. Gallagher makes discreet incisions in the natural creases of the elbows, allowing for well-concealed scars. Typically, these incisions are placed in the horizonal creases just above the elbow. Through these incisions, she removes excess skin and fat, and if necessary, tightens the underlying tissues for optimal results. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, ensuring your comfort throughout the surgery.
Recovery and Results: After the elbow tuck surgery, you can expect a recovery period during which some swelling, bruising, and discomfort may occur. Dr. Gallagher and her team will provide you with comprehensive post-operative instructions to guide you through the healing process. They will be readily available to address any concerns or questions you may have during your recovery journey.
As the swelling subsides, you will begin to see the beautiful results of your elbow tuck surgery. Your elbows will appear more sculpted, defined, and youthful, enhancing the overall harmony and balance of your arms.
