Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)

An arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the upper arms by removing excess skin and fat. Over time, factors like aging, significant weight loss, and genetics can result in sagging, loose skin on the arms. For individuals looking to restore a toned and youthful appearance, an arm lift can provide transformative results.

Dr. Roomana Akhlaque is an experienced plastic surgeon specializing in arm lift procedures. Her expertise, combined with a patient-centered approach, ensures that each individual receives personalized care tailored to their specific needs and goals.

What Does an Arm Lift Involve?

An arm lift addresses two main concerns: excess fat and loose skin. Depending on the patient’s condition, the procedure may involve:

• Removing Excess Skin: This step tightens and smoothens the skin for a firmer appearance.
• Liposuction: For patients with localized fat deposits, liposuction can be performed in conjunction to sculpt the arm and enhance the overall contour.

The surgery typically involves an incision along the inner or back of the arm, extending from the armpit to the elbow. Dr. Akhlaque’s meticulous techniques minimize scarring and provide aesthetically pleasing results.
