Arm Lift

Arm lift, also known as brachioplasty is a cosmetic surgery that makes your upper arms look tighter, more toned, and more defined. The procedure removes unwanted fat, removes excess skin, and tightens the remaining skin to give you toned and taut arms. This procedure is common among bariatric and weight loss patients with sagging skin or fat under the upper arms.

Procedure Overview

The arm lift procedure removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms, smoothing contours and reducing sagging. This procedure can be combined with liposuction to refine shape and improve overall arm definition.

Your arm lift consultation

During your consultation, Dr. Griffin evaluates the skin, underlying tissue, and overall arm shape. He will discuss the most appropriate surgical technique, expected results, and potential scarring, ensuring your treatment plan is customized to your body and goals.

What to expect

Performed under general anesthesia, the procedure involves carefully placed incisions along the inner or back arm to minimize visible scarring. Excess skin is removed, and underlying tissue is tightened for a smoother, toned appearance. Mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort are normal for the first week, with most patients returning to light activities soon after.
