Arm Lift Australasia

How does it work?Plasma Fibroblast creates a controlled dermal wound to promote, encourage and initiate the body’s natural healing response. At Equinox Clinic we utilise the last generation of Beierplasm K85 which is the first continuous working plasma lift in the world. Plasma Fibroblast works similarly to an ablative (fractional) laser. Plasma Fibroblast uses a scientifically-crafted hand piece designed to ionize gases (plasma) in the air creating a small arc. Plasma is created as the arc touches the skin, transmitting heat to the papillary layer of tissue where the fibroblast cells are located.  The plasma-created heat causes the affected tissue to contract and in turn tighten the skin. The fractional tip does not affect the skin cell tissue but only sublimates the skin surface and contract the skin by creating small dot shapes in the treatment area. That’s when the real magic of this treatment happens, your skins natural healing processes go into overdrive and encourage fresh cells, including collagen and elastin, to be produced.

Excess skin and fatty tissue in the upper arms may be surgically removed to improve the shape of the arms and improve the fit of clothing. Excess skin is removed and tailored to fit the smaller body underneath. The improvement in arm shape is exchanged for scars where the skin is removed. Incisions are placed on the inside of the arm which hides them when the arm is by your side but they are visible when your arm is lifted up (when waving). In appropriate cases, small reductions can be performed with a scar concealed in the armpit. Arm lifts are performed under general anaesthetic in a private hospital. Complications of surgery include long or visible scars, wound healing problems, stretched scars, residual folds of skin or stretch marks, and stretching of skin post operatively due to loss of elasticity in the skin.

Cartilage and bone of the nose can be re-shaped to improve shape and function. This can correct a natural, but large, dorsal hump or tip; or repair an injured nose. A shared understanding between patient and surgeon is essential for successful rhinoplasty surgery. When a large or obvious deformity is present, good improvements are possible in most cases. Smaller, subtle changes are more challenging to achieve and may be less satisfying for a patient. There is no perfect nose or face, but harmony between the nose and face is achieved by balance. If you have functional nasal problems, these may be corrected or worsened by rhinoplasty surgery. Other complications include bruising, swelling, asymmetry, dissatisfaction with the look of the nose, need for re-operation or revision.
