Arm Lift Surgery

Arm lift surgery effectively removes loose, sagging skin on the upper arms. It enhances the arm’s natural contours by eliminating stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. This procedure boosts self-confidence, allowing you to feel more comfortable in sleeveless clothing. Our experienced, board-certified female plastic surgeon, Dr. Luckey, is committed to delivering natural-looking results.

Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery

Arm lift surgery significantly improves the appearance of your arms by addressing excess skin and fat. It provides a more toned and youthful contour, enhancing your overall appearance. Many patients experience a boost in self-confidence, feeling more comfortable wearing clothing that reveals their arms. The procedure is ideal for those who have experienced weight loss, aging, or genetics-related sagging.

Understanding the Procedure

An arm lift reshapes the upper arm by removing excess skin and fat. We offer different types of arm lifts, each designed to meet your unique needs and aesthetic goals:

• Full Arm Lift: This comprehensive procedure addresses significant sagging and excess skin along the entire upper arm, from the armpit to the elbow. It is ideal for those who have experienced substantial weight loss or aging, leading to considerable skin laxity.
• Mini Arm Lift: A less invasive option, the mini arm lift targets mild to moderate sagging, typically focusing on the upper part of the arm near the armpit. This procedure involves shorter incisions and may result in quicker recovery times.
• Liposuction-Assisted Arm Lift: For individuals with good skin elasticity but stubborn fat deposits, liposuction can be combined with an arm lift. This approach removes excess fat while tightening the remaining skin, enhancing the arm’s overall contour.

Each procedure is customized to address your specific concerns and desired outcomes. We will work closely with you to determine the most appropriate approach to achieving your goals.
