cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess skin and stubborn fat from the upper arms for a firmer, smoother, and beautifully contoured silhouette.
Arm Lift Sculpt Your Arms with Precision Contouring
What Is an Arm Lift?
Arm lift also known as brachioplasty, is a surgical body contouring procedure that targets sagging skin and stubborn fat on the upper arms. Over time, factors such as aging, genetics, and significant weight changes can cause the inner arm area to lose elasticity and develop loose, hanging skin — sometimes referred to as “bat wings.”
Arm lift surgery removes excess skin and underlying fat to create a leaner, more toned arm contour. Unlike non‑surgical treatments, which may help with mild skin tightening, an arm lift offers direct surgical reshaping, delivering more dramatic and long‑lasting results.
(this principles are supported by standard medical sources such as the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.)
