When you age, the upper arm skin becomes loose and flabby. A brachioplasty (also known as arm lift), is a surgical procedure to reduce the circumference of the upper arm by removing and tightening the loose skin. Dr. Shelia Bond will suggest that liposuction be used to remove any excess fat deposits. Brachioplasty and liposuction procedures can be done together or individually to improve the “Bat Wing Deformity.”

A brachioplasty will improve the appearance of the upper arm and will require a scar that can extend from the arm pit to the elbow. These scars usually heal well after a period of wearing a compression garment. Liposuction will require several very small incisions that can also be indistinguishable once healed.

The smoother, tighter contours that result from brachioplasty are apparent almost immediately following the procedure, although initial results may be somewhat obscured by swelling and bruising. Your new, shapely and toned upper arm is dramatically improved both in appearance and feel.

Although the decision to have arm lift surgery is extremely personal, you will have to decide if the benefits will achieve your goals and if the risks and potential complications are acceptable. However, carefully following Dr. Bond's post operative instructions greatly reduces the possibility of risk and complication following surgery. Dr. Bond will address any concerns you may have during your personalized consultation.

Brachioplasty is usually performed on an outpatient basis at a fully accredited, hospital using the latest equipment available.

If you have wanted to improve the tone of your arms and exercise has not accomplished your goal, we encourage you to contact our office and set up a personalized consultation with Dr. Bond. She will determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.
