Arm Lift

Armlift

For individuals with loose, flabby and/or inelastic upper arm skin, the arm lift can help. The arm lift, also known as Brachioplasty, is a plastic surgery procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms to create a smoother, more toned appearance.

Suitable candidates for an armlift

Candidates for the arm lift are healthy and are realistic in their expectations for improvement. Patients are typically looking to improve loose, sagging upper arm skin, which some may refer to as “bat wings” or “flags.” The surgery can be combined with liposuction for individuals with significant amounts of fat as well as excess skin.

Arm lift procedure

Arm Lifting is a procedure that is performed under intravenous sedation. The treatment can usually be performed on an outpatient basis. Sometimes an overnight stay at the Kliniek is necessary. After the procedure, you will usually have to wear an elastic arm bandage for between 3-6 weeks. 
The position of the scar is usually vertical on the inside of the upper arm. Sometimes it is necessary to extend the scar to the inside of the armpit. An arm lift (skin reduction) can also be combined with fat removal: liposculpture of the upper arms. 

What to expect?

Soon after the procedure, the skin will look firmer. When the swelling has subsided you will be able to see the results. This will take about 6 weeks. The end result is only visible when the wound, the subcutaneous tissue, and the scar are all completely healed. This will take about a year.
The results of an arm lift correction are permanent.
