Arm Lift

Also known as Brachioplasty

An arm lift(brachioplasty), is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the upper arms by removing excess skin and, in some cases, fat. This procedure is often chosen by individuals who have experienced significant weight loss or aging, resulting in loose, sagging skin on the upper arms that can't be improved through exercise alone.

The best candidates for an arm lift are individuals who:

  • Have excess skin and, in some cases, fat on the upper arms.
  • Are in good overall health, with no underlying medical conditions that could interfere with the healing process.
  • Have reached a stable weight and are committed to maintaining their weight following the procedure.
  • Have realistic expectations for the results of the surgery.

  • Before the arm lift procedure, the patient will have a consultation with the plastic surgeon. The surgeon will assess the amount of excess skin, discuss the patient's goals, and create a personalized treatment plan.

    During the arm lift procedure, the surgeon will make incisions on the undersides of the arms, strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. The excess skin is removed, and in some cases, liposuction may be used to remove excess fat. The remaining skin is then tightened, resulting in a firmer and more toned appearance.

    After the procedure, patients should expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medication and rest. The recovery period can vary based on the extent of the surgery and the individual's healing process. Patients should follow the surgeon's post-operative instructions, which may include wearing a compression garment and avoiding strenuous activities.

    Liposuction surgery and arm lift procedure are two cosmetic treatment choices for people who have flabby arms caused by excess skin and fat. However, both treatment methods differ significantly in terms of how they are carried out and who they are designed to benefit. Hence, it is crucial to figure out which solution is best for your situation!

    The results of an arm lift can significantly enhance the appearance of the upper arms, providing a more toned and contoured look. Patients often experience increased self-confidence and find it easier to wear sleeveless clothing.
