Arm Lift and Liposuction

Arm Lift and Liposuction
Arm Lift and Liposuction is a combined cosmetic surgical procedure that targets the upper arms, aiming to eliminate sagging skin and excess fat. It is ideal for individuals who experience “bat wings” — loose, hanging skin under the arms — typically due to aging, weight loss, or genetic factors. The procedure involves two main steps:

• Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits from the upper arm region using a cannula and suction technique.
• Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) involves the surgical excision of excess skin to create a tighter, more contoured appearance.

While liposuction alone can improve arm shape in patients with good skin elasticity, combining it with skin tightening ensures optimal results for those with moderate to severe sagging. The incision is typically placed along the inner arm or back of the arm to minimize visibility.

This procedure significantly enhances arm definition, allowing patients to wear sleeveless clothing confidently. It is often performed under general anesthesia and requires a short recovery period with compression garments and limited arm movement for several days.
