What is an arm lift Surgery?

An arm lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure to reshape the underside of the upper arm from the armpit to the elbow.

During an arm lift surgery — also known as brachioplasty — excess skin and fat are removed from between the armpit and elbow. The remaining skin is placed back over the newly repositioned contours to create a more toned look.

Why it’s done

As you get older, the skin on your upper arms changes — sagging and becoming loose. Significant weight loss also can cause the undersides of your upper arms to droop.

While exercise can strengthen and improve muscle tone in the upper arm, it can’t address excess skin that has lost elasticity.

You might choose to have an arm lift if the undersides of your upper arms are sagging. An arm lift might also boost your body image.

Results

By removing loose skin, an arm lift can give your upper arms a more toned appearance.

Arm lift results are typically long lasting. Remember, however, your skin will naturally lose some firmness as you age and some sagging might occur. Maintaining a stable, healthy weight can help you retain your results.
