How is Arm Lift Surgery Performed?
Arm lift surgery usually takes 1-3 hours under general anesthesia. The surgeon first removes excess skin and fat from the upper arm, then tightens the arm muscles and smooths the skin. Aesthetic suturing techniques are used to shape the arm.
Additionally, liposuction helps make the arm contours more balanced and refined. Post-surgery special compression garments support the healing process. As a result, the arms become both firmer and aesthetically improved.

-Strenuous exercises and sports should be postponed for 4-6 weeks

Arm Lift Techniques
Arm lift surgery is tailored according to the patient’s arm structure, degree of sagging, and aesthetic goals. The surgeon always chooses the most suitable technique based on individual needs.
4. Combined Techniques
In some patients, the surgeon combines arm lift, liposuction, and other aesthetic techniques.
This approach helps the arm tighten, refines fat contours, and achieves a more natural appearance.
These personalized combination methods are especially ideal for patients with significant sagging and fat accumulation.

3. Minimally Invasive Arm Lift
For mild sagging or limited excess skin, the procedure is performed through small incisions.
The surgeon removes excess skin, tightens the arm, and closes the incisions aesthetically.
This approach reduces recovery time and leaves minimal scarring.
Overall, the minimally invasive method is a fast and effective solution for mild sagging.

2. Arm Lift + Liposuction
If the arms have both excess skin and fat deposits, the surgeon first removes the excess fat via liposuction and then performs a standard arm lift.
This approach balances arm contours and provides a natural appearance.
Additionally, liposuction enhances the definition of the arms.

1. Standard Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
In this method, the surgeon removes excess skin and sagging from the inner arm. Then, the underlying tissue is tightened to reshape the arm.
The incision is closed with esthetic sutures, resulting in firmer and more attractive arms.
