Arm Lift

Remove excess skin for toned, defined arms.

The Philosophy

Brachioplasty addresses the heavy appearance under the upper arms due to aging or weight loss. By removing excess skin and fat, this procedure reshapes the arm to create a tighter, more toned contour.

The Ideal Candidate

  • Good skin tone and overall health
  • Realistic expectations for surgical scarring

Common Inquiries

Where is the scar for an arm lift?

The incision typically runs along the inside or back of the upper arm, from the armpit to the elbow.

Can liposuction alone fix sagging arms?

If you have good elasticity, liposuction may be enough. If there is loose skin, an arm lift is required.

How long is the recovery?

Most return to work in one to two weeks but must avoid heavy lifting for at least four to six weeks.

Will my arms feel tight after surgery?

A feeling of tightness is normal initially as the swelling subsides and skin adjusts.
