Résumé
Current brachioplasty techniques include excisional surgery alone or in combination with liposuction. However, these techniques generally have poor outcomes, such as unfavorable scarring and residual contour deformities. We propose a new classification system and treatment algorithm for brachial ptosis and describe our experience with power-assisted liposuction and lipofilling to treat brachial ptosis that avoids excisional surgery. Power-assisted liposuction can be applied to the posterior arm and para-axillary region, and power-assisted lipofilling can be performed in the so-called bicipital triangle of the medial arm. Nevertheless, a short skin excision remains indicated in cases of moderate to severe skin excess.
