Arm lift

Brachioplasty

Excess skin on the upper arm is looked at during the examination. An arm lift is not liposuction alone. The plan is set at the examination.

This procedure

An arm lift is not liposuction alone.

The inner arm skin and the scar line are discussed together. This text is general information.

What an arm lift is

Skin is separate from fat.

In an arm lift, excess skin along the inner arm line is discussed. Its medical name is brachioplasty. Liposuction may not be enough for every arm.

At the practice, what is sagging is heard first. Then the skin, the fat and the scar line are looked at.

Who comes in for a consultation

No two arms are the same after weight loss.

Those who want to discuss arm skin after weight loss may come in for a first consultation. The right path for you is not written here.

Liposuction alone, or no procedure at all, may also be discussed. No decision is asked for on the same day.

Arm skin is assessed face to face.
