Arm Lift in Main Line Philadelphia, PA & Somers Point, NJ

Even with exercise and a healthy lifestyle, the upper arms can lose firmness and develop sagging skin. This is often due to aging, genetics, or significant weight loss. An arm lift, also called brachioplasty, can remove excess skin and fat to create a smoother, more toned arm contour.

At The Brandow Clinic Cosmetic Surgery, Dr. Kirk Brandow offers arm lift surgery for patients in Main Line Philadelphia and Somers Point, NJ. His approach focuses on refining your arm shape so it looks naturally proportionate to the rest of your body.

What Is an Arm Lift?

An arm lift is a surgical procedure that reshapes the upper arm by:

  • Removing excess skin
  • Reducing stubborn fat deposits
  • Tightening the underlying tissue for better contour

It is often recommended for people whose upper arms have loose skin that does not improve with exercise.

How the Procedure Works

An arm lift is typically performed under general anesthesia. Dr. Brandow makes incisions along the inside or back of the arm, often extending from the underarm to the elbow. Through these incisions, he removes excess skin, reshapes the underlying tissue, and may use liposuction to address localized fat.

Recovery usually involves:

  • Wearing a compression garment to support healing and reduce swelling
  • Taking a short break from strenuous activity for several weeks
  • Seeing results gradually improve as swelling decreases

While an arm lift leaves a scar, Dr. Brandow places incisions in less noticeable locations whenever possible.

Who Is a Candidate for an Arm Lift?

You may be a good candidate if you:

  • Have loose, hanging skin on your upper arms
  • Are at or near a stable weight
  • Have good overall health and realistic expectations
  • Want to improve the shape and tone of your arms

An arm lift can be performed alone or combined with other procedures, such as a breast lift or tummy tuck, for more comprehensive results.
