Arm Lift Before & After Case 71

Our patient, a woman in her mid-50s, was constantly self-conscious about the size of her upper arms. The problem wasn't just aesthetic, she suffered from lipedema, a chronic condition that caused significant swelling and discomfort. This restricted her ability to wear certain clothes that fitted her comfortably. Desiring to change her life for the better, she reached out to us for an arm lift, specifically a brachioplasty procedure.

The transformation that we’ve achieved for her has been truly remarkable. Now free from the physical burden she carried for a long time, she feels more comfortable in her body and in her clothes. The success of the arm lift procedure has not only provided a tangible solution to her lipedema but has also made a notable difference to her body-image and overall sense of well-being. We have included her before and after photos to give you an idea of the dramatic improvement that the procedure provided.

To successfully perform the Arm Lift, our patient entrusts her care to Thomas M. Hagopian MD, a distinguished board-certified plastic surgeon. His unique background that includes starting his career as a firefighter and paramedic has shaped his approach to patient care with an emphasis on patient education, body positivity, and minimally invasive procedures. This, combined with his expertise in modern surgical techniques, ensures that his patients get the best possible outcome. Dr. Hagopian completed his medical education at the prestigious Emory University in Atlanta and further honed his skills through a six-year plastic and reconstructive surgery residency at the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California. He now shares his expertise right here in Atlanta, at tour office located at 99 Krog St. C110, helping patients like the one featured on our photo gallery to live confidently in their bodies.
