The Arm Lift is a technique to remove excess hanging skin from the upper arms usually after substantial weight loss. Fluctuations in weight, growing older, and heredity can cause your upper arms to have a drooping, sagging appearance. This is a condition that cannot be corrected through exercise.

The procedure is ideal for patients who have a significant amount of excess, hanging skin or fat in the upper arm area. It is also important that patients are healthy overall, with no major medical conditions that may be affected by surgery. The arm lift procedure will reduce excess skin and fat deposits between the underarm and the elbow, reshape the skin and contours of the upper arm, and give the arms a more toned appearance.
