Considerations

Often when looking at overall body proportions, the upper arms aren't considered. Brachioplasty and liposuction both remove excess fat and skin from the upper arms. This decreases the diameter of your upper arms, giving a toned look to your arms and restoring a more balanced appearance to your entire body.

Q&A

How does an arm lift / Brachioplasty work?

Liposuction may be used to remove excess fat through tiny, nearly invisible incisions. For patients with significant excess skin, incisions are placed on the inside of the arm, removing excess skin and the underlying supportive tissue is tightened and restructured. Through this finely honed approach, you’ll soon find your upper arms looking fantastic.
