About arm lift

Time can cause the skin to lose its natural elasticity and leave areas looking tired. A brachioplasty smooths and tightens the skin and removes stubborn areas of fat that may have developed with age, resulting in arms that are smoother and more youthful in appearance.

Brachioplasty with Dr. Ladak
Is it right for you?

When to consider arm lift

Consider an arm lift if:

  • Your arms have loose skin and unwanted fatty deposits
  • Regular exercise and diet cannot get rid of the excess fatty tissue and skin
  • Massive weight loss has left you with excess skin and ‘bat wings’

What to expect

Arm Lift: procedure, results and recovery

01

The procedure

An arm lift is performed under general anaesthetic, and unwanted areas of skin and fat are removed from the upper arm. In some cases brachioplasty is combined with liposuction to achieve the most desirable results.

02

Results

Once you have recovered from any bruising or swelling, you will have upper arm contours that are smoother, firmer and more in keeping with your natural image.

03

Recovery

After surgery, the treated areas are protected to reduce swelling, and Dr. Ladak will give you instructions on how best to look after your arms.
