Do you have excess hanging skin and fat in the upper arm?

WHAT IS BRACHIOPLASTY?

Excess hanging skin and fat in the upper arm can be treated surgically with a procedure called brachioplasty. This surgery helps reduce the unwanted extra skin and stubborn fat that can be genetic in nature, or is sometimes left behind after weight loss, resulting in a tighter, more contoured upper arm. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Stanley Harper performs brachioplasty to help achieve the contoured arms desired!

BRACHIOPLASTY: WHO’S A CANDIDATE?

Patients who are bothered by significant excess skin or fat of the upper arms are potential candidates for this surgery. Best results are achieved when the patient is at a stable weight prior to arm lift surgery. Fill out the consultation form below or call us to schedule your consultation today.

RECOVERY

The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, and is an outpatient procedure. Recovery is usually mild, with most patients returning to work in about a week.
