Arm Lift
Reshape and smoothen your upper arms by removing the loose skin often accompanying weight loss or aging.
What is an Arm Lift?
Technically known as a brachioplasty, an arm lift is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the appearance of your upper arms, from elbow to armpit, by removing excess skin and fat through an incision made on the inside of the arm.
An arm lift effectively treats sagging skin caused by weight loss, under-arm skin laxity, wrinkles and folds due to aging.
