Post Brachioplasty Care

1. Wear Compression Garments

These reduce swelling, support tissues, and improve contour after arm reduction.

2. Keep Arms Elevated

Elevation reduces swelling and discomfort after an arm tuck or brachioplasty.

3. Avoid Heavy Lifting

Do not lift anything heavy for at least 4–6 weeks.

4. Follow Wound-Care Instructions Carefully

Clean incisions daily and apply prescribed ointments to prevent infection.

5. Take All Medications on Time

Pain relievers and antibiotics support recovery after arm fat surgery.

6. Attend All Follow-Up Appointments

Your surgeon will monitor progress and adjust care instructions.

7. Avoid Smoking

Smoking greatly delays healing and increases complications after flabby arm surgery.

8. Sleep With Arms Elevated

This minimises swelling and discomfort after bat wing surgery.

9. Stay Hydrated & Eat a High-Protein Diet

Hydration and protein both speed up recovery.

10. Avoid Stretching or Raising Arms Above Shoulder Level

This protects the incisions during the early healing period.
