Is it possible to get an arm lift and breast implants at the same time?

I know of several plastic surgeons that have done the combination surgery you are interested in.  Interestingly enough, a plastic surgeon can dovetail the brachioplasty (arm lift) incision into a transaxillary breast augmentation incision, and thereby increase the amount of skin resection in the upper arm.Finding the right Board Certified plastic surgeon is the key element in combining these two surgeries into one excellent surgery.  The good news is that Los Angeles has an abundance of outstanding plastic surgeons, many of whom can combine these two surgeries in one operation both safely and successfully. 

It is possible to get arm lift (brachioplasty) with augmentation. I would suggest scheduling a consult with a surgeon in your area to get an idea of the costs and to determine if you are a candidate for both those procedures. #PlasticSurgery #BreastImplants #BreastAug #Brachioplasty #armlift 

While an arm lift and implants can be done at the same time, you should be aware that the arm lift requires quite long scars.  In young people it is usually used in people after massive weight loss.

The answer to your question is yes. It is very possible to do these two procedures at the same time assuming you are a healthy individual. I have done this numerous times. By doing both procedures at the same time you will have only one recovery, save money and you will avoid going under general anesthesia twice. Prices vary depending on  factors related to the condition and appearance of your existing breasts and arms. I hope this information helps!Thomas Taylor, MD, FACSPasadena, CA

I appreciate your question.These surgeries may be combined. If the arm lift is due to a lot of laxity, sometimes we need to also tighten the lateral breast area.The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz

Thanks for your question.  Yes, in general it's possible to combine breast implant surgery with an arm lift procedure.  I would recommend seeking a consult with an experienced plastic surgeon who will be able to advise whether this particular combination would be appropriate in your case.

but my concern is that you will also likely need a lift if you need an arm lift as well.  If you're not that loose in your arms, you costs will vary considerably according to what you end up choosing to have.  You should see what your chosen surgeon suggests and also get a second opinion to see if there is agreement to confirm that you will get the best procedure possible.  Costs should easily exceed $10K anywhere.

An arm lift and breast augmentation can certainly be performed at the same time, assuming you are a healthy individual. If you do not have a great deal of excess arm skin,you may want to consider a limited incision armlift with the scar confined to the armpit asopposed to extending from the armpit to the elbow. The estimate cost for such a procedure would be in the range of $13,500 with an estimated recovery of 1 week if you do the limited incision armlift, and 2 weeks if you do a traditional armlift.

Hi, thanks for your question. If you are a healthy person and your doctor agrees you might have these combination of procedures. Please make sure that you and your surgeon are on the same page. Don't forget to discuss all your concerns, options and expectations thoroughly. Have a safe and pleasant PS Journey!Respectfully,Dr. Jaime Campos-Leon

important to remember that a board certified plastic surgeon will be your best
