Arm Lift
Surgery

This surgical procedure called arm lift exists to reshape the lower section of upper arms by removing excess skin and fat tissues. The surgical procedure tightens and smooths the supportive tissue that determines upper arm shape which results in a more toned and proportionate appearance. The procedure delivers excellent outcomes for people whose skin hangs because of weight changes and natural aging processes.
