The Arm Lift surgery is performed to improve the appearance of the upper arms by reducing excess, sagging skin. As we get older we all notice subtle and not so subtle changes to our figures–for many people the area of the upper arms can be the most difficult to tone. When there is excess, sagging skin it can be particularly frustrating because there is no amount of healthy eating for exercise that can resolve it. The Arm Lift is performed through an incision that runs along the inside of the upper arm between the elbow and the armpit.
In some cases the arm lift, also called brachioplasty, may be performed in combination with other body contouring procedures such as liposuction if there is also stubborn fat in the area as well that has not been responsive to diet and exercise. if you are interested in learning more about the arm lift procedure and recovery process, and to find out if it may be right for you, contact our office to schedule your consultation with Dr. Parashar today.
