An arm lift involves the removal of excess fat and loose skin from the upper part of the under arm area. This is a target area that many women find that as they age the skin becomes loose and saggy, and sadly, it is very unlikely to resolve with exercise alone. Other candidates may have experienced significant weight loss which has left them with unsightly excess skin in this area.
The arm lift operation involves making an incision in the under arm often from above the elbow to the armpit. While this is a long incision and some form of scarring is inevitable, our surgeons’ delicate handling of the incision and the suturing ensures its long term visibility will be minimal.
Facial spider veins, also known as thread veins, or the medical term facial telangiectasia, are found in the skin on the nose and cheek, and are small blood vessels typically measuring less than 1 mm. They are very common, but can be unsightly and disfiguring.
Breast uplift (mastopexy) is a cosmetic operation to remove excess skin from your breasts to improve their shape. The procedure is very similar to breast reduction surgery. However, in a breast lift procedure your breasts are reshaped by tightening the skin, without removing any breast tissue.
Wrinkles are part of the ageing process and can be attributed to sun damage, effects of gravity and muscle contraction resulting from facial expressions such as frowning and laughing. Wrinkles due to the effects of gravity represent natural sagging of tissue with age and are generally only improved by surgical tightening procedures. Wrinkles caused by muscle contraction such as frown lines, forehead lines and crows’ feet can be improved by anti-wrinkle injections.
