The surgical sequence for brachioplasty consists of several key steps:

• Initial marking and anesthesia: After sanitizing the area, the surgeon outlines the incision lines on the inner arm. General anesthesia or regional blocks ensure you remain comfortable and pain-free throughout the procedure. An IV line is placed for fluid management and medication delivery.
• Incision and tissue removal: The surgeon makes precise cuts along the pre-marked lines, excising excess skin and fat. If needed, liposuction techniques refine the underlying tissue for a smoother contour. Throughout, care is taken to preserve important blood vessels and nerves.
• Arm contouring: After the unwanted tissue is removed, the remaining skin is re-draped to achieve a natural shape. The surgeon may adjust tension to prevent sagging and ensure symmetry between both arms. Intraoperative assessments confirm evenness before closure.
• Wound closure: Layers of internal sutures support deeper tissues, while fine sutures close the skin. This layered approach minimizes tension and promotes finer scars. Sterile dressings are applied to protect the incision sites.
• Post-op monitoring: You are moved to a recovery area where vital signs are closely observed. Pain relief and anti-nausea medications are administered as needed. Once stable, discharge instructions and compression garments are provided before you depart.

The treatment process begins long before the day of surgery and continues through recovery abroad:

• Inquiry and consultation: You submit medical details via our portal, and a dedicated coordinator connects you with a suitable surgeon. Virtual consultations allow you to discuss expectations, review before-and-after photos, and clarify any concerns. This remote planning ensures that your preferences are understood well in advance.
• Scheduling and travel arrangements: Once you approve your treatment plan, our team assists with booking flights, accommodation, and airport transfers. We recommend scheduling at least one extra day before surgery to acclimate and complete any pre-operative testing. Clear checklists help you prepare documents and personal items for travel.
• Pre-operative assessment: Upon arrival, local staff guide you through hospital registration, lab work, and final medical clearance. You meet your surgeon in person to confirm measurements and markings. This step finalizes any adjustments to your surgical plan based on in-person evaluation.
• Surgery day: You arrive at the clinic or hospital early, don a surgical gown, and meet the anesthesia team. After anesthesia administration, the brachioplasty is performed according to the agreed plan. Post-op recovery begins in a private suite with nursing support.
• Follow-up and discharge: You attend follow-up visits to monitor healing and remove sutures if required. Patient coordinators arrange transportation back to your lodging and provide 24/7 support. Guidance on home care and when to resume normal activities ensures a safe return home.
