Arm Lift – Brachioplasty

Beverly Hills & Los Angeles

After substantial weight loss, weight gain or simply from the effects of aging, skin on the upper arms can become inelastic, loose and flabby. Arm lift surgery, also known as brachioplasty, removes that excess skin and fat.

Los Angeles & Beverly Hills arm lift patients who have significant amounts of fat may want to consider combining the procedure with liposuction. This procedure can also be combined with a breast lift (mastopexy) on the same day. The extra tissue under the armpits and arms can be used on occasion to augment breasts that have become deflated from significant weight loss. This is known as “auto-augmentation” which is a technique used to augment various parts of the face and body after the soft tissue deflation that occurs after massive weight loss.
