Arm Lift

Arm lift

Arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at improving the shape and appearance of the arms. This procedure is common among individuals who experience sagging skin in the arm area due to significant weight loss, aging, or after pregnancy and childbirth, and therefore, we perform this procedure at Gulglam Clinics.

Benefits of Arm Lift

Within Gulglam Clinics, we discuss several potential benefits of arm lift surgery, including:

  1. Improving overall appearance: Arm lift helps tighten excess skin and improve its appearance to appear more youthful and attractive.
  2. Restoring self-confidence: The tightened and contoured appearance of the arms post-surgery can help increase self-confidence and psychological comfort.
  3. Comfort: Arm lift may reduce friction that occurs when the skin is sagging, contributing to increased daily comfort for the individual.

Arm Lift Surgery

Surgical arm lift, sometimes known as arm surgery, is a type of cosmetic surgery. The aim of this procedure is to address sagging underarm skin by reducing excess skin, tightening and smoothing tissues, and removing excess fat. This can make the upper arms appear slimmer and more defined, especially after significant and rapid weight loss.

Details of Arm Lift Procedure

Arm lift involves removing excess skin and fat from the arm area, then tightening the remaining skin to achieve the desired appearance. This procedure can be performed under local or general anesthesia and may take several hours depending on the extent of the surgery.
