ArmSculpt

Most of our patients have described the experience as “surprisingly easy.” The local anesthesia used will keep you comfortable during the procedure, and any post-op discomfort is typically mild and short-lived. Some patients even compare it to the soreness felt after a good workout. You might feel a little pressure during the fat removal, but it’s nothing that should keep you from chatting with Dr. Ibrahim or catching up on your favorite playlist. And because we don’t use general anesthesia, you’ll bounce back faster and avoid that groggy, post-op haze.

For most of our Melbourne-area patients, ArmSculpt is a one-and-done treatment. You’ll come in for a consultation, have your procedure, and attend one or two follow-up appointments just to ensure everything is healing smoothly. That said, if you’re combining ArmSculpt with other treatments or looking for touch-ups in the future, Dr. Ibrahim will incorporate that into your personalized plan. It’s all about what works best for your body and schedule. We’re big fans of keeping it efficient without ever cutting corners.

Some results will be noticeable as soon as the post-procedure swelling subsides, which should occur within the first 1 to 2 weeks. The final shape and contour will continue to improve over the next 2 to 3 months as your body finally settles into its new silhouette.

Absolutely. Many of our Melbourne-area patients opt to combine ArmSculpt with other body contouring treatments, such as Lipo360, TummySculpt, or ReviveLift. If your goals are more comprehensive, such as a full-body refresher, we can create a customized combo plan that makes both medically and aesthetically sense. Skin tightening procedures, especially for those with reduced elasticity, can further enhance your results. Whether you want to complete all treatments at once or stagger them, Dr. Ibrahim can guide you through the best approach for your body, timeline, and budget.

As with any minimally invasive procedure, ArmSculpt has some risks. Potential side effects include temporary swelling, bruising, asymmetry, and minor changes in skin sensation. In rare cases, fluid buildup (seroma), infection, or delayed healing may occur, especially if post-op care instructions aren’t followed closely.

Fortunately, Dr. Ibrahim’s precise technique and conservative approach minimize complications. His dual fellowship training ensures that every step is performed with safety and artistry in mind. During your consultation, we’ll detail all possible risks so you feel fully informed.
