Abstract



Background


Brachioplasty has increased 4059 percent from 2000 to 2008 in the United States, with 14,059 upper arm lift procedures performed in 2008. Numerous variations in the evolution of brachioplasty have been described to improve on complications and outcomes. Liposuction-assisted posterior brachioplasty is the next step in the series of refinements in upper arm contouring.
