Arm Lift or Brachioplasty Surgery involves a lengthwise incision on the arm to remove excess skin and fat. Occasionally liposuction is used along with arm lift surgery to remove excess fat and provide better contouring. 

Many of our patients combine other procedures such as breast lift, breast augmentation, liposuction, tummy tuck, thigh lift and buttock lift with their arm lift to enhance their appearance.  Another advantage of combining procedures is that there will be only one recovery period and there is a cost saving for anesthesia and operating room fees. 

What Are The Indications Of Arm Lift or Brachioplasty Surgery?

The procedure is performed to remove the excess skin or fatty tissue that exists on the body as a result of age or weight loss (such as after gastric bypass surgery or dieting).

Am I A Candidate?

You can be a good candidate for an arm lift if you have excess or sagging arm skin.

What Can I Expect From An Arm Lift Procedure?

An incision is expertly made on the arm lengthwise and the excess fat and skin is excised. The skin is then expertly re-approximated for the best cosmetic results.

What Are The Advantages?

Removal of excess fat and skin allows for better contouring of the arm. Diet and exercise are seldom effective at reducing stubborn fat deposits. No amount of calorie-counting or treadmill time can reverse loose and hanging skin.

How Long Does The Procedure Take?

The typical arm lift takes 1-2 hours

How Many Treatments Are Required?

Usually only one treatment is required.

How Long Will The Results Last?

The results of an arm lift are long lasting, usually for many years.

Will I Have Pain?

As anesthesia is used, there is no pain during the arm lift procedure. A certain degree of swelling and bruising is normal. Discomfort is usually easily controlled with medications prescribed by your plastic surgeon.

When Can I Go Back To Work Or School?

Most patients are able to return to work within 3-7 days.
