Before the surgery, a detailed interview and examination is made, blood tests, heart electrocardiography and lung x-ray are taken, and the approval of the anesthesiologist is obtained.
The surgery is performed under general anesthesia (full sleep) in a full-fledged hospital. The surgery takes approximately 2-3 hours. During the surgery, first the excess fat is removed by liposuction. Then, if the sagging is mild, it is removed only in the armpit area. If the sagging is severe, it is removed from the armpit and the inner part of the arm, from the armpit to the elbow. Excess skin is removed by making an incision extending into the inner part.
