Upper Arm Lift Before and After Photos

You may be a candidate for an upper arm lift (brachioplasty) if you have loose, excess or sagging skin on your upper arms. Weight gain and loss, heredity and aging can all be attributing factors to this.

Dr. Kearney performs upper arm lifts under general anesthesia and you can usually go home the same day. An incision is made from the armpit to the elbow in order to remove excess skin and fat and although it fades with time, a scar will remain on the inside of your arm but will only be visible when you lift your arms.

Most patients return to work within 1 week after the procedure and can resume normal activity with 3 to 4 weeks.
