Arm Lift and Mini Arm Lift: Firmer and Aesthetic Arms
Arm lift surgery (brachioplasty) is a surgical procedure performed to remove excess skin and fat tissue in the arm area to provide a tighter and more aesthetic appearance. It is especially preferred to remove sagging after weight loss or due to aging. Mini arm lift is a minimal procedure applied for milder sagging.
What is Arm Stretching?
The arm lift procedure gives a firmer and younger appearance by removing loose skin and fat tissue in the upper arm area. The procedure both eliminates aesthetic concerns and increases the self-confidence of individuals.
Who Can Have Arm Lift Surgery?
Arm lift surgery is suitable for individuals with the following conditions:
- Sagging After Weight Loss: Excess skin on the arm due to rapid weight loss.
- Loss of Elasticity Due to Aging: Conditions where the skin loses its firmness.
- Aesthetic Concerns: Individuals who want to have firmer and smoother arm lines.
Types of Arm Lift Surgery
- Full Arm Stretch:It is applied to remove large skin sagging on the upper arm.
- The incisions are usually located on the inside of the arm and excess skin is removed.
- Mini Arm Lift:It is applied in milder sagging.
- The incisions are smaller and the scars less prominent.
How is Arm Lift Surgery Performed?
Arm lift surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia and the duration of the procedure varies between 2-3 hours. The stages of the procedure are as follows:
- Evaluation and Planning: The surgeon evaluates the amount of sagging and fat in the arm area.
- Opening the Incisions: Incisions are made in the designated area on the inside of the arm.
- Removal of excess fat and skin: Excess skin and adipose tissue are removed and the muscle structure is shaped.
- Stitching and Bandaging: Incisions are closed with aesthetic sutures and bandaged.

The healing process after arm lift is usually completed between 2-4 weeks. Things to be considered:
- There may be swelling and bruising in the first days; this condition decreases over time.
