Arm lift surgery also known as Brachioplasty is cosmetic surgery aimed at the removal of the excess skin and/or fat which creates sagging underarms also referred to as ” bat wings”. This happens commonly after weight loss, obesity, or with aging. Liposuction alone will often not solve the issue because it will not address the problem of skin laxity, so therefore there is a need to tighten loose skin as well to achieve good arm contour . Majority of the patients are happy with the procedure. However it is important to note that scar along the insides of the arms is an important issue to be discussed with the surgeon.
