As we age, our skin starts to lose elasticity. This can cause loose, hanging skin on the upper arms as well as excess fat that resists diet and exercise. Excess fat and skin on the upper arms can often make a person feel self-conscious and uncomfortable wearing certain articles of clothing. Arm lift surgery can be performed to restore a more toned appearance to the upper arms.

Arm Lift Surgery Can Correct:

• Sagging, loose skin on the upper arms
• Excess stubborn fat along the upper arms
• Flabby tissue under the arms

Arm lift surgery is performed to reduce sagging skin and excess fat from the upper arm area. This involves the removal of excess skin and fat through an incision. Leftover skin is tightened and shaped to provide a flattering and defined arm contour.

Combining a Body Procedures

Arm lift surgery is most common among patients who have lost a significant amount of weight. After significant weight loss, patients often choose to combine procedures such as breast lift surgery, tummy tuck surgery, and thigh lift surgery with an arm lift. By combining one or more procedures, patients can achieve an overall total body makeover. They can feel confident again with a body that is toned and skin that is tight and smooth.
