What does the procedure involve?
An arm lift removes excess skin from the arm when laxity no longer improves with exercise or non-surgical treatments. The goal is a better-defined arm silhouette without stiffening natural body movement.
When do we recommend it?
- Marked laxity after weight loss.
- Hanging skin on the inner arm.
- Self-consciousness when wearing sleeveless clothing.
- Cases that can be combined with selective liposuction.
Real indications
Excess skin is not always corrected with liposuction
When the main problem is excess skin, tightening surgery is the most logical option for achieving a stable change.

Frequently asked questions
Will the scar be visible?
There is a scar, because the surgery removes skin. It is planned so that it sits in the most discreet area possible.
Can it be combined with liposuction?
Yes. In some cases it improves the overall contour of the arm.
