How Does an Arm Lift Work?
Arm lift is a surgical procedure designed to remove loose skin and excess fat deposits from the upper arm. With age, upper arm skin can become flabby. Dr. DeMars often discusses brachioplasty with patients who wish to tighten the excess skin of their upper arms in order to look as good and energetic on the outside as they feel on the inside. In some cases, Dr. DeMars suggests that his arm lift patients undergo arm lift in conjunction with liposuction in order to achieve the best possible results. The use of liposuction techniques allows him to remove excess fatty tissue deposits from the patients’ upper arms, thus enhancing the skin-tightening effect of arm lift.
