    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Reconstructive Surgery

    Context:

    • Arm ptosis (drooping) presents a challenge in aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.
    • Existing brachioplasty techniques often involve significant tissue excision, leading to potential complications.

    Purpose:

    • To introduce and evaluate a new brachioplasty technique for correcting arm ptosis.
    • To achieve improved arm contour and firmness without tissue excision.

    Summary:

    • A novel technique utilizes a de-epithelialised flap rolled from behind and slid under the anterior incision margin.
    • This method aims to recreate the arm's natural roundness and improve tissue consistency.
    • The technique was applied to 12 patients with follow-up ranging from 8 months to 4 years.

    Impact:

    • Demonstrated no postoperative edema in the study cohort.
    • One patient experienced transient hyperesthesia for 2 months.
    • Highlights the importance of patient awareness regarding potential scar sequelae and healing complications.
