Awake Arm Lift For Lipedema - No General Anesthesia!!!

Dr. Markelov is a premier double board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in arm liposuction for the treatment of lipedema. Lipedema is a medical condition characterized by the abnormal accumulation of fat in the arms and legs, leading to pain, swelling, and other complications. The symptoms of arm lipedema can vary depending on the severity of the condition but may include:

1. Enlarged or swollen arms that are disproportionate to the rest of the body
2. Pain or tenderness in the arms, especially when pressure is applied
3. Easy bruising or skin that is sensitive to the touch
4. Difficulty fitting into clothing that fits well in other areas of the body
5. Fatigue or weakness in the arms
6. Diminished range of motion in the arms
7. "Bumpy" or uneven skin texture on the arms

Liposuction can help to remove excess fat from the arms, which can alleviate some of the symptoms associated with lipedema.
While liposuction can help to contour the arms and remove excess fat, it may not be effective in addressing loose arm skin.

In some cases, liposuction can actually worsen the appearance of loose skin, as the removal of fat may result in additional sagging or drooping. In these cases, a separate surgical procedure such as an arm lift or brachioplasty may be necessary to remove excess skin and improve the appearance of the arms.

Dr. Markelov can safely combine Arm lift surgery and Arm Liposuction procedure. Both procedures are done in one setting under local anesthesia to reduce the risks of complications related to general anesthesia. Dr. Markelov also uses special techniques to facilitate rapid recovery and to allow his patients to return to their normal activities more quickly.
