ARM REDUCTION
Introduction
Contouring your ideal body can make for a challenging journey. Despite adopting a healthy lifestyle, it can feel almost impossible to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat that don’t respond effectively to diet and exercise. The arm and bra-line are some of the most common areas of concern for patients.
Excess fat in this area can not only diminish your figure and disturb your natural curves but also reduce your confidence, preventing you from embracing the body you’ve worked hard to achieve. At Soulplace Surgery in Maitama, Abuja Nigeria, Dr. Gana offers advanced liposuction techniques to help patients achieve a slimmer, more defined physique.
What is Arm Reduction?
Arm and bra-line fat reduction draws on liposuction surgery, which has become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures available today. Liposuction is a minimally invasive treatment that uses a thin tube, or cannula, to break up and suction stubborn pockets of fat. This procedure works to remove fatty tissue and refine areas of the body that are burdened with fat deposits, most commonly the abdomen, thighs and back.
When targeting armpit and underarm fat, Dr. Gana aims to eliminate the fatty tissue and unsightly bulges that appear around the midsection, back and upper body. These rolls tend to display prominently in tight-fitting clothing and can dramatically disturb the body frame you’ve strived to attain. By removing this excess tissue, Dr. Gana can sculpt a more balanced and shapely upper body that complements your whole figure. With highly developed techniques, he can produce beautiful cosmetic results with minimal pain and downtime involved, allowing you to feel more comfortable and confident about your appearance.
Candidates
Liposuction is not a substitute for weight loss. The most suitable candidates for this procedure will be in good health and stabilizing a healthy weight range. Ideal patients are those seeking to address fat deposits around the armpit and bra-line that have proven to be resistant to diet and exercise. You will likely be eligible for fat reduction surgery if you are experiencing any of the following concerns:
-
-
-
-
- Poor muscle tone and considerable sagging
- Excess skin following significant weight loss
- Excess breast tissue crowding the armpit region, near the milk lines
- Skin and breast tissue spillage despite wearing a contoured and fitted bra

The Procedure
The procedure will vary slightly for each patient, depending on the extent of fat reduction required. After examining your condition and aesthetic goals in your consultation, Dr. Gana will design a procedural plan tailored specifically to your needs. With extensive experiencing performing liposuction surgery, Dr. Gana has developed highly advanced techniques that produce excellent results and minimal side effects.
Underarm and armpit fat removal surgery is usually completed under local anesthesia. During this treatment, several incisions are placed along the target area. Dr. Barrett draws on a tumescent technique to expand and tighten the fat, which is then suctioned out using a cannula device. Due to this minimally invasive approach, the incisions typically heal by themselves, making stitches unnecessary.
Results and Recovery
Recovery
The most common side effects of liposuction surgery include mild swelling, bruising and discomfort around the treated area. Compression garments or elastic bandages can be worn to reduce these symptoms as the area heals. Patients usually return to work and regular activities within a few days of treatment, though any strenuous activities should be avoided for a few weeks, including exercise. To ensure optimal results, Dr. Barrett will give you specific aftercare instructions on how to care for the area and minimize the risk of complications occurring.
Results
Since swelling will initially affect the area, most patients notice gradual results. The final improvements typically develop once the treated area has fully healed, which may take several months. The results of armpit and bra-line fat reduction surgery are generally long-lasting, so long as you maintain a healthy and active lifestyle. If significant weight is gained, however, the effects of liposuction surgery may be altered. After your treatment, Dr. Barrett can suggest ways to help you increase the longevity of your shapely and refined physique.
