Removes excess skin and fat along the inner arm through an incision from the underarm toward the elbow, delivering the most dramatic tightening for significant skin laxity.
Targets mild looseness near the upper arm and underarm through a shorter, well-hidden incision — ideal for patients with limited excess skin.
Combines skin tightening with liposuction to remove stubborn fat and refine the arm’s overall contour for a smoother, more toned result.
An arm lift, or brachioplasty, is a body-contouring procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms. It is especially helpful after significant weight loss or age-related skin laxity, restoring a firmer, more defined arm contour that better matches the rest of your body.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia. Incisions are placed along the inner or back of the upper arm, positioned to stay as discreet as possible within the natural contours of the arm.
Excess, loose skin is removed and underlying fat is refined — often with liposuction — to reveal a tighter, smoother arm. The remaining tissue is then re-draped over the new contour.
Once the desired contour is achieved, incisions are carefully closed in layers to support healing and minimize scarring. You will receive detailed recovery guidance, including compression garment use and activity timelines.
