Arm Lift Scars: What to Expect and How We Help You Heal Beautifully in St. Petersburg, FL

If you’ve had an arm lift (also known as brachioplasty), you already know that the surgery almost always leaves a visible scar. While these brachioplasty scars are permanent, the good news is that they can fade beautifully with the right care—and that’s where we come in.

In our clinic, we know how important it is for you to feel confident in your skin. We do a lot of these, and each case gets personalized care.

Whether it takes several scar revision sessions or scar camouflage techniques, we’ll work closely with you to get a flawless finish before we even think about adding color.

Here’s How We Help Arm Lift Scars Heal Their Best:

1. Hands Off as It HealsDuring the healing phase, it’s important not to pick at the incision line. Let your body do its job. Wearing compression garments can help protect the area—and keep your hands off!

2. Stay Out of the SunUV rays are no friend to healing skin. Constant sun exposure can disrupt how your body produces collagen and elastin, which could lead to uneven scarring. We recommend wearing sleeves and using daily sunscreen on the area during the healing phase—especially here in sunny Florida.

3. Use Silicone Strips or GelMedical-grade silicone strips are simple, effective, and proven to help scars heal smoother. Silicone supports hydration and oxygen flow, helping your skin stay soft and calm as it repairs. It can also reduce the chances of keloid or hypertrophic scars, and make the area more comfortable.

4. Advanced Scar TreatmentsWe offer customized treatments like LED light therapy and laser options that help reduce redness and speed up fading. These are especially effective if your scar is raised, discolored, or slow to improve.

5. Keep It CleanInfection is the enemy of a good scar outcome. That’s why we guide you step-by-step through the aftercare process to help your incision stay clean and heal properly from the start.

Whether you’re in Tampa, Clearwater, Sarasota, or new to St. Petersburg, our expert scar camouflage artists are here to help you look and feel your best. When it’s time to add color, we’ll make sure your skin is ready—smooth, even, and beautifully healed. You deserve to feel confident in your favorite clothes again.
