Arm lift aesthetics, whose Latin name is "brachioplasty", is a procedure used in cases of arm sagging due to many factors. Arm lift aesthetics can be achieved by liposuction in cases where there is no sagging, and the elasticity of the skin tissue is not completely impaired. However, if the arms appear sagging, arm lift surgery may be performed.
Arms may tend to thicken or sag after a certain age. This may cause aesthetic and psychological discomfort for people. To prevent this and achieve a beautiful appearance, "arm lift surgery" is one of the frequently preferred methods.
Arm lift (Brachioplasty) surgery is a preferred aesthetic treatment method not only for sagging due to aging, but also to get rid of the unwanted appearance due to thickening of the arms after rapid weight loss after sleeve gastrectomy surgery or excessive weight gain. Arm lift surgeries are performed by aesthetic and plastic surgery specialists. If you decide to have arm lift surgery, you should consult experienced plastic surgeons who are experts in their field.
Loose and sagging arm skin, which occurs due to certain reasons, can disturb people psychologically as well as cosmetically and aesthetically. Open arms look bad, especially in short-sleeved clothes, and this can negatively affect people's social life. Patients may want to have an arm lift surgery to avoid this bad appearance and feel better.
Arm skin is prone to sagging due to its structure. With advancing age, the collagen structure in the skin decreases and the skin loses its elasticity. For this reason, sagging may occur in the arm skin. Additionally, upper arm sagging, which is mostly seen in women, may occur due to weight gain or loss. As the body becomes fatter, even if weight is lost, the elongated collagen tissues may not return to their previous state. As people lose excess weight after stomach reduction surgery and birth, sagging in the arms may be more common. If the body elasticity is genetically low, sagging may occur in the arms.
Before arm lift surgery, patients are asked for some tests and tests. If there is no problem that would prevent the surgery and anaesthesia, the date of arm sagging surgery is determined. Before the surgery, the patient is told that he/she should stop using blood thinners and should not eat or drink anything for at least 8 hours before the surgery.
Arm lift surgery is performed by making an incision of approximately 5 cm from the inner part of the arm to the part extending parallel to the armpit folds and removing the sagging skin and fat tissue. Arm lift surgery is performed under surgical conditions and general anaesthesia. Self-disappearing hidden stitch method, called aesthetic stitching, is used in arm lift surgery.

Arm lift surgery is the surgical removal of sagging skin and fat tissue on the inner surface of the arm. This procedure is generally aimed at sagging in the upper inner part of the arm.
People who have generally maintained weight control, have a healthy body mass index, but have inner arm sagging or excess skin problems may be suitable candidates. It is especially preferred in cases where skin elasticity decreases, or sagging occurs after major weight loss.
Although the recovery process varies from person to person, it may generally be necessary to stay in the hospital for the first few days. Swelling, bruising and mild pain are normal in the first weeks. There may be limitation in arm movements, but it will improve over time and normal activities can be returned.
The results of arm lift surgery are generally permanent, but skin changes may occur after the aging process and lifestyle factors.
Risks of surgery may include risks of general anaesthesia, infection, bleeding, wound healing problems, loss of sensation or skin problems.
Yes, in some cases, arm lift surgery can be performed together with other aesthetic procedures such as liposuction. This should be planned to depend on the needs and health status of the surgeon and the patient.
