Arm Lift in Lowell, MA

An arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, reshapes the under portion of the upper arm, from the underarm region to the elbow. This procedure can help to reduce sagging skin, tighten tissues that define the shape of the upper arm and reduces localized pockets of fat.

Who Is a Good Candidate for an Arm Lift?

A patient may undergo this procedure for any number of personal reasons. However, we often find that the ideal candidates for a tummy tuck surgery find themselves in one of the following situations:

• You have lost significant weight from proper diet and exercise and have sagging skin on your arms
• You have localized fat pockets in the upper arm area
• Your upper arms are sagging or appear loose and full due to excess skin and fat.

Recovery

During your recovery from arm lift surgery, dressings or bandages may be applied to your incisions, and your arms may be wrapped in an elastic bandage or a compression garment to minimize swelling following surgery. A small, thin tube may be temporarily placed under the skin to drain any excess blood or fluid.
