Brachioplasty Upper Arm Lift
Significant weight loss can cause the skin of the upper arms to sag and hang in an unsightly manner. Brachioplasty, also known as an upper arm lift, is a plastic surgery procedure designed to lift the upper arm skin and correct this looseness.
Incisions for the upper arm lift are placed on the inner surface of the arm within the groove of the bicep muscle. While it can take some time for the resulting scar to mature and fade, correct placement allows the scar to be less visible most of the time and when the arm is in a normal position.
