Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)

Firm the upper arms by removing loose, hanging skin.

What is Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) for?

An arm lift removes excess skin and fat from the upper arm to create a firmer, more toned contour, often after weight loss or with aging.

Benefits

  • Toned upper arms
  • Comfort in sleeveless clothing
  • Removal of skin folds
  • Can be combined with liposuction

Who benefits?

  • Patients after major weight loss
  • Adults with age-related skin laxity
  • Those unable to tone loose skin with exercise

Recovery time

Most return to light activity in 1–2 weeks and avoid lifting for about 4–6 weeks.

Every patient heals differently. Dr. Saba will give you a personalized recovery plan.

Why choose Dr. Saba?

Dr. Salim Saba is dual board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery, with more than 15 years of experience and training at UT Southwestern and UC San Diego. He positions scars along the inner arm to keep them discreet.
