Your Right To Bare Arms

An Upper Arm Lift, reshapes the upper arm to tighten loose skin and remove fat that often creates a "Bat Wing" appearance under the arm.

Removing the excess skin caused by weight loss or natural aging can tighten loose skin that extends from the underarm area to the elbow.

Liposuction Is Sometimes Used To Achieve Best Results

What Is An Arm Lift? An Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) is a surgical procedure that:

  1. Reduces Excess Sagging Skin That Droops Downward
  2. Tightens & Smoothes The Underlying Supportive Tissue That Defines The Shape of The Upper Arm
  3. Reduces Localized Pockets of Fat in The Upper Arm Region

Fluctuations in weight, growing older, and heredity can cause your upper arms to have a drooping, sagging appearance. This is a condition that cannot be corrected through exercise.

Arm lift surgery may be right for you if the underside of your upper arms are sagging or appear loose and full due to excess skin and fat.

Upper Arm Lift scars vary depending on the amount of excess tissue you have and the elasticity of your skin. Even patients who undergo a standard brachioplasty, which results in larger scars, are usually quite satisfied with the results.

  • Liposuction

    Because liposuction incisions are small, the scars are also small. Most liposuction scars fade and are barely perceptible over time.
  • Limited-Incision Brachioplasty

    Your scars will most likely be limited to the underarm areas.
  • Standard Brachioplasty

    Incisions are generally placed on the inside of the arm and may extend from the underarm (axilla) to just above the elbow.
  • Extended Brachioplasty

    The standard brachioplasty incision is extended along the arm down to the body to correct loose skin and fatty tissue under the arm area.
Recovery Time 2 - 3 Weeks
