WHAT IS AN ARM LIFT?

When you wave, you want people looking at your hand, not your upper arm. An arm lift can tighten and reshape sagging, loose skin and improve the arm’s contour. With an incision hidden along the inner arm or in the axilla (armpit), Dr. Nimtz will remove unwanted skin and fat, imparting a more youthful appearance.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AN ARM LIFT?

Have you recently undergone a massive weight loss effort? Have the effects of aging or lifestyle factors affected the appearance of your arms so that they no longer have their youthful tone, but are instead characterized by excess skin and flab? If diet and exercise have not been able to help you achieve your youthful arm tone, then you may be an ideal candidate for the benefits of an arm lift.

WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR AN ARM LIFT?

Candidates for arm lift surgery have underarm skin laxity but are at a stable weight. If you have made every effort with diet and exercise, but stubborn fat remains, you should take the time to schedule your arm lift consultation with Dr. Nimtz.

WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE FOR AN ARM LIFT?

After assuring your comfort with anesthesia, the incision is made, depending on the amount and location of excess skin to be removed as well as the best judgment of Dr. Nimtz. Dr. Nimtz generally places your incisions on the inside of the arm or on the back of your arm. Then, the underlying supportive tissue is tightened and reshaped with internal sutures. Finally, the skin is smoothed over the new contour of your arm. The smoother, tighter contours that result from brachioplasty are apparent almost immediately following your procedure, although there will likely be swelling and bruising.
