Have you found yourself avoiding tight shirts, dresses, or bathing suits because you’re unhappy with how your arms look? If you’re struggling to fit into the clothes you want because of your sagging arms, an arm lift procedure might be the solution for you.

What Is an Arm Lift?

Arm lift surgeries are designed to remove excess fat and skin from the upper arms and contour them by liposuction and excision. This body contouring operation is effective in smoothing out wrinkles and firming up loose skin, as well as lifting up the arms. With an arm lift, you won’t need to rely on long-sleeved clothing to cover up sagging arms.

Arms might begin to sag for various reasons, including:

  • Aging,
  • Decrease in fat tissue under the skin,
  • Rapid weight gain or loss,
  • The effects of gravity,
  • Loss of skin elasticity.

An arm lift is also called a brachioplasty. This cosmetic procedure is preferred when non-surgical methods like exercise and a healthy diet are not enough to deal with saggy skin. There are various techniques for arm lifts that can be tailored specifically to your condition, including:

  • Mini arm lift: This type of arm lift is used for mild to moderate loose skin in the upper arms. It is also called a short scar arm lift or invisible arm lift.
  • Standard arm lift: Excess skin with loss of skin elasticity is completely removed in this arm lift.
  • Scarless arm lift: This kind of arm lift is chosen for those with good skin elasticity, which allows the skin to tighten itself after the removal of excess fat.
  • Extended scar arm lift: An incision is made from the elbow to the armpit to address saggy skin.

What Are the Benefits of Brachioplasty in Turkey?

Brachioplasty in Turkey offers several advantages, such as:

  • Removing excess saggy skin and stubborn fat in the upper arms,
  • Enhancing arm shape,
  • Tightening the skin,
  • Making exercise easier,
  • Reducing excess sweating,
  • Customizable surgery tailored to your individual preferences,
  • Long-lasting results.

Brachioplasty can correct drooping skin and thoroughly contour your upper arms. Your newly defined upper arms can restore your self-esteem. You can wear any clothes you like. Once you get rid of your excess fat and loose skin, you will achieve a more youthful appearance. However, it is important to keep in mind that brachioplasty is not a weight loss operation. An arm lift procedure only contours your upper arms when you’re at your optimal weight. Brachioplasty addresses the loose and excess skin left behind after significant weight loss.

Frequently Asked Questions

Brachioplasty is also known as arm lift. This cosmetic procedure aims to remove the excess fat and skin located in the upper arms to make the patient’s skin appear more youthful and smoother.

Arm lift is preferred by individuals with drooping skin or stubborn fat which cannot be corrected through exercise and diet alone. This procedure effectively tightens and lifts loose skin and excess fat in the upper arms.

Candidates for arm lift surgery should have loose skin in their upper arms, be of stable weight, and be free from medical conditions or smoking, which could increase surgical risks.

Brachioplasty may leave a scar following the procedure. However, this scar can be hidden under the armpit.

After an arm lift procedure, the recovery period typically lasts up to 3 weeks. Brachioplasty is generally thought to be a day-case operation. Depending on your situation, you may need an overnight hospital stay or arrangements for someone to drive you home the same day.

Arm lift surgery is not intended for weight loss but rather to contour the saggy skin resulting from significant weight loss. It is usually done to patients who are at an ideal weight.

Arm lift surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia and proceeded with painkillers after the procedure. Patients generally experience reduced pain following the procedure.

The arm lift procedure is designed to reshape the upper arm by removing excess skin and fat to achieve a more balanced appearance.
