How much would it cost for both a BBL and an arm lift at the same time?
Answer: Arm lift Yes some, but not all, of your tattoos will be impacted with an arm lift. I encourage you to visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation. Here your surgeon can demonstrate what you can expect in terms of results and how the incisions will influence your tattoos. A price quote will be given as well.

Answer: Tattoo Visibility with Arm Lift and BBL Thank you for your inquiry about how an arm lift would impact your tattoos and the combined cost of an arm lift and BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift). Tattoo Alteration in Arm Lift: The location and size of the incision in an arm lift (brachioplasty) will directly affect any tattoos located in that area. If your tattoo is situated where the incision or removal of skin will occur, it will likely be altered or distorted. Based on your description and the photo provided, your right arm tattoo, which is a portrait of a man, would indeed be affected. You have two primary options: Opt for the arm lift that best addresses the excess skin and fat in your arm, understanding that the tattoo will be affected. You could then consider tattoo touch-ups or modifications post-recovery. Choose an arm lift technique that minimally impacts the tattoo, which may result in a less optimal arm contour. Cost Consideration for BBL and Arm Lift: The cost for both a BBL and an arm lift depends on various factors: Surgeon's Expertise: Surgeons with more experience or those who are in high demand may charge higher fees. Geographic Location: The region or city where you get the procedure can significantly influence the price. For example, procedures in metropolitan areas or cosmetic surgery hubs might be more expensive than in other regions. Facility Type: The costs can vary depending on whether the surgery takes place in a hospital, a private surgical center, or an in-office surgical suite. Extent of the Procedure: The complexity and duration of the surgery will influence the cost. Additional Costs: These might include anesthesia fees, operating room fees, post-operative garments, medications, and any pre-operative medical tests. Combined Procedures: Sometimes, having multiple procedures at once can reduce the overall cost compared to having them done separately, as some fixed costs (like the operating room or anesthesia) might be charged only once. It's crucial to consult with several board-certified plastic surgeons to understand the potential costs for both procedures when done together. Wishing you all the best in your cosmetic surgery journey! Sincerely, Dr. Katzen

Answer: Would it mess up any of my tattoos if I get the arm lift? (Photos) The extended arm lift allows more fat and skin to be removed, and it can produce a much better contour. Because the laxity extends all the way to your elbow, the longer incision is needed. In an extended brachioplasty, I can put the scar anywhere the patient desires (inside of arm, back of arm). It is my belief that the incision in the bicipital groove is the most appropriate in most patients as most people during casual observation do not expose the medial aspect of their arms. The posterior scar is more visible in walking in short sleeve tops. You would need to be seen in person for a board certified plastic surgeon to determine if the tatoo would be stretched. Costs can be found on my web site. These will vary by surgeon, geographical location, demand for the surgeon, follow ups, garments provided, etc,

Answer: Arm lift Dear mikaylajohnson, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like arm lift wouldn't affect your tattoos.
